Mike Tyson: Bill Cayton and Jimmy Jacobs were slave masters

how much do you think managers make genius?
just because he said 1/3 doesnt make it true

 

They were actually putting part of every purse in a trust for him for when he retired. He left them and went with King who stole much more of a % so didn't work out so well for Mike. Should have stayed with Cayton.

 

as rico just said, Don King stole more from him. Cayton and Johnson didnt....King nearly emptied his bank account while he was in prison

 

I don't think he hates Jacobs as he passed away when Mike was still with the original Team Tyson. I think he just didn't trust Cayton and listened to Kings lies. Very few managers set up trusts for their fighters and try to help them save for after Boxing. King didn't do it for any of his fighters.

 

Ali was broke when he retired he only has money now because he signed away like 85% of his name for merchandising a few years back.

Yes, Tyson didn't care about Cayton at all. He would have still been better of with Cayton than King.

 

Cayton and jacobs may have been "slavedrivers" in the sense that they made him work hard and not party, do what he wanted. For at the time was good for him. Where as king give him a long leash to act like a child. Tyson never really had a proper childhood. I think he saw the world owed him, not the other way round. If he had stayed with cayton who knows what might have been. But he made his bed and the rest is history.

 

Why does anybody believe this delusional fool. This guy was a threat to himself, yet he
comdems people who had his best interests money wise!

 

thats because he sold 90% of his likeness (his name) for over 50 million dollars not long ago....he was near broke before he did that. had nothing to do with King you noob

 

ummmm no noob

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) - He may always be known as "The Greatest", but famed prizefighter Muhammad Ali will now have to share the rights to his name and likeness.

Entertainment and licensing firm CKX announced Tuesday that it is paying Ali $50 million in cash in exchange for selling 80 percent interest of his name and likeness.

"This relationship with CKX will help guarantee that, for generations to come, people of all nations will understand my beliefs and my purpose," Ali said in a prepared statement.

A representative for Ali could not comment on the deal.

As part of the agreement, Ali will maintain 20 percent control of the newly formed company G.O.A.T. LLC, an acronym for "The Greatest of All Time".
