Originally posted by Foreign Soil View PostNah. Berto's been overpaid his whole career. If Berto deserves it then Upsher should've gotten paid top dollar as well, for taking more punishment. One guy shouldn't get all the dough due to connections and the cans brought in to take beatings should be paid more. You're going to value one guy who gets hit because he's not as good as advertised, solely on who is? That's wrong.

Originally posted by BostonGuy View PostNo, Berto's held titles, fought the better opposition and is the marquee name on the billing. Berto has made a name for himself by giving fans exciting fights and by being a 'blood 'n guts' warrior type fighter. He is a commodity and should be compensated as such

$400k - Broner
$150k - Berto
$130k - Matthysse
$50k - Ortiz
$20k - Upsher
Why Broner took home only around $400k. After taxes he has about $580k, after paying Haymon and GBP their cut I would think he has around $400k. Same follows for all other fighters with their respective taxes and promotional/managerial fees.
Lol not so much now, still wealthy checks for Broner, Berto, Matthysse, but people like to cause a ruckus without taking a fighter's take home pay into consideration.

Well actually I do understand jealousy.
But luckily for me I do not suffer from that affliction.
