    Even your own words show he did not make more and at best parity if that.

    It's not about my own words, it's about real life.

    Martin made more money than AJ that night.

    I've read numerous reports of Martin getting 6 mill and AJ 8 mill


    Nothing concrete esp on AJ's purse

    Where you getting your data from out of interest!?

    They had 50/50 split, but Martin had a bigger guarantee.

    Not by much, but it was bigger.

    Ok

    But he still sold every advantage he had for that extra bit of cash

    You think Davies is going to Scotland for an extra mill?

    I was shocked at how much Martin got to face AJ. About 8.5 mill US?

    I don't know what Davies would do.

    It depends how much he wants the title as best LWW in the world.

    A reminder for Tank fanatics who think he is special. At Tank's age (26) Floyd had beaten Corrales and fought Castillo twice.

    By the age of 26 Pacman had fought Barrera, Morales and Marquez.

    He has no data just making it up because it suits his agenda. The thing is when you fight a rainmaker money making machine like AJ you set yourself up with the biggest purse ever despite being on the shorter end. The result is Martin is a millionaire many times over and is now boxing because he wants to not for the money.
