    I saw last year Mickey Bey, who had a high level amateur career, had a 8K payday in his 19th fight. Stevens v. Ndam and neither guy will get 50K. Stiverne got 225K for a heavyweight title. Mike Jones v. Randall Bailey each got 100K for their title fight. Arreola is a Haymon client and got 125K for the Stiverne rematch. In reality, Haymon is only taking care of Danny Garcia, Floyd, and Broner over the market value. Cotto made less v. Martinez than Floyd did v. Baldomir in 06. The purses have to be examined in order for other talented kids to take up the sport. People take up football and basketball due to financial compensation. You can be a scratch player and make more than most high level boxers. When Haymon gets all of his fighters over market value, then he would deserve thanks.

    How exactly are you determining what a fighter's market value is?

    Mickey Bey has is coming off of a KO loss and has been severely under preforming.
    The guy has a lot of talent but when I listen to Mayweather in the corner giving him instructions, he doesn't listen and almost always pays the price.

    It's not about resume, it's about the draw you are. Danny, Floyd, and Broner are all far bigger draws than Bey, or Stirverne. Having a title has nothing to do with your purse. There are flyweight champs, who walk away with pennies.

    He is talented, but as I said, he lost by TKO to John Molina last year plus failed his drug test.

    Bey doesn't listen to his trainer and corner but still if he were 6'8", 240lbs he'd fuk Vlad up.
    Skill wise, he's miles a head of Vlad.
