From Cali commission, 6/2 purses for Home Depot Center card on @SHOsports:Tarver $ 1M, Kayode $130K, Winky $200K, Quillin $130K, Trout $100K
How did he make so much dough on such a meaningless fight????????????
1000000 is a great purse nowadays. not many guys can demand a 8 digit payday...there are only a handful...most guys don't ever get a 7 digit purse
8 digit is 10 mil+
Only 3 guys do that
Tarver is his own promoter, not to mention he works for the network (they probably wanted this fight, for whatever reason). How much did he get to fight Danny Green? $3 or 4 M, so why is it a big deal about a Million?
that's why roy jones, bj flores, tarver & a few others go to australia to fight danny green. he's a big draw there & it's usually a fat 6 or 7 digit paycheck when you fight him. certain fighters can draw well at home so many opponents want to go on the road & fight in their hometown. bute in quebec is one & lennox lewis seriously considered fighting joe mesi in buffalo because he could put 10000-15000 in the buffalo arena(forget the name). adamek does well in newark as does zab judah.

Tarver ain't one of the best CW in the world at all. Although it wasn't a meaningless fight, i believe it belonged on shobox or espn. 1 mill for that is too much, but good on tarver for making the deal. A waste of money on showtimes part imo

first of all it wasnt a meaningless fight. kayodee isnt a star or a very good fighter imo but he is highly regarded as a prospect none the less and showtime has invested in him alot. more importantly tarver is still one of the biggest names in the sport. tarver is one of the best CWs in the world, has a title and by far the biggest name in the division. kayodee has a entertaining style, an undefeated record and all that i mentioned previously. it wasnt a meaningless fight at all.
im suprised they all made so little, winky in particular.
Only logical explanation I can think of is that it must have included his purse + a payment in advance covering 5 years(2013-2018) for his services as a Showtime ringside analyst.
Thats funny **** dude.
