    He was there and was backstage on camera after the loss. He paid Cotto well though. Cotto has 1 more fight for them then he cashes out back to P.R.:good

    Never sign to a rapper. Rigo never learned from Gamboa's situation either. Lara looks like Einstein next to these guys.

    Yes he was. But he doesn't run things. In his eyes its just another company. Billionaires see it that way.

    These days even millions can go fast. Our paper money becomes worth less as every year goes by.

    I've seen backyard wrestling shows that were significantly better promoted.

    It has to be for a certain amount of fights. He cant just fight 1 time in 4 years and get $10 million. :rofl Its probably 6 fights.

    Broner , Thurman and Wilder all had to turn down multi million dollar Roc Nation offers in late 2014. Haymon veto power?:yep

    I know Roc Nation are dummies but most boxing contracts have clauses where that if you get injured time stops. So sitting it out wont work. Just ask Andre Ward! :yep Not having that clause lets the fighter weasel his way out of a promise he agreed to. Fighters nowdays just need to fight their contracts out! You sign them and then want out 6 months later? Sorry:nut

    Well everytime he fights his trainers and managers get a chunk and then taxes. Hes lucky if he clears $2.2. People ready or hear a large number and say WOW but don't take into account taxes and fees to trainers, preparation, etc.
