is this a veiled attempt to excuse margarito from fighting mosley?
Golden Boy Promotions makes AMAZING contracts compared to King, and Arum. King ive heard took up to 50% on Tyson fights, and cut into Tyson's purse. There is a reason so many fighters go to Golden Boy Promotions, even Mayweather said Golden Boy works out good deals..so i dont know why all you people in this thread are complaining.
The ufc is worse then any promoter. They pay there top fighters shit compared to boxers and some ufc ppv are selling much more then boxings.
But they pay a more even amount across the board to their fighters. Its not like a Del a Hoya fight, where he'll get 35 mil and some guy on the undercard gets 15k. They'll pay someone 800k, then someone else 600k, and so on. Much better spread out. Trust me, a friend of mine works for the UFC.
what kind of % do you think the UFC gets? 25% sounds fair to me. They take care of everything for the fight, including ads, the venue, everything....and they always do a great job.
I've heard that Top Rank and King used to charge 33%....
Yeah GBP is full of crap, this is bullshit. Promoters should all work for free! Sarcasm by the way.....:sucks:
Its called Golden Girl Rule #1, pay me, **** you!!!
Yup. That's what Golden Boy does. They **** the opposing fighter and **** the fans. Death to Golden Boy and Death to Richard Schaefer.
I wonder how the other promoters do it. This is why fighters like Margarito won't accept 2 mil for a fight with Mosley when Margs already made 1.5 when he didn't have the belts or a win over elite fighter. So after that 25% for gbp, 50/50 plus from your 50% you have to pay 10 % trainer, maybe another 10 if not 15% for manager then if you pick up a cut man for a night you can pay him a few hundered or if he's you're daily cut man you may have to pay him 3-5 % if not a set pay. Then you pay for your training expenses. After all that is taken from a fighter then you realize why they want more money.
Good point, BUT, Dont forget the rape fee....i mean sanctioning fee!!!
