Agree he's not a stupid person, but I do think he does blow cash at a pretty fast rate and needs a lot of income to maintain his lifestyle. Could also be he just wants to stay relevant for a Klitschko fight, but the jungle thing AND this made me suspicious.
He says otherwise.
In his book and in some other places he has said the only thing he really spends on is food. The cars he has were mostly gifts gievn to him, clothes are given to him...he listed those as perks of being a well known boxer actually.
I think he's simply building his name to non-boxing fans. There's a reason he held off on the DVD until after the jungle thing....build your name to the mainstream then release a DVD right around christmas; smart business sense. Then they also know you when another fight rolls around.
Apparently the whole DVD is 100 minutes long. That's a lot of content.
Lol a 100 minutes? I hope it includes information on what to do if you break your toe.
Seriously, seriously doubt it.
He is very intelligent, has a very good business mind and he simply knows how to sell things...why not make some easy money on the side?

but it acctually makes sense for fighters to make exercise videos, now that i think about it i wonder why more ppl havent done it. and the TV thing is right up his alley, lots of camera time there and reaching an even bigger audience than he did as a fighter.
If I recall correctly Roy is also involved in an excercise/nutrition thing. Guess why.
Celeb in the jungle, this....I think Haye may be broke.

doubt it, he never came across as someone who spends a whole lot of money and he sure made alot. i think its just about staying relevant, the man loves the spotlight like few fighters i ever seen. he won miss a chance to pop his shirt off in front of a camera.

It requires big investments though and there's too much competition, the market is already saturated. Hardcore boxing fans wouldn't buy that gear because it wouldn't be of the same quality as established brands like everlast, grant, reyes, winning or ringside. And casual fans would be put off by the price, if they can get a $20 glove they're not gonna pay double just because it says "Pacman" or "Money May" on it.
I see your point, but I have to disagree. Established brands are good and people will buy them, but if the right boxers bring a good product to the market, people will be willing to give it a shot if it's good. I mean, why do kids buy Jordans? They're hella expensive compared to the other brands/styles but people still buy them like crazy. Jordan's name recognition and the prestige that comes along with owning a pair make people buy. And of course the shoes look good. The same with Dr. Dre Beats headphones. They're dozens of headphone makers in the market but Dre brought his own endorsed product to the market (which is credible due to his work as a producer) and succeeded. But one thing about both men is they got with established companies to help them launch their product. Jordan with Nike and Dre with Monster Cable.
If a boxing star like Pac links up with Grant, Reyes, or Everlast to come out with his own edition of boxing gloves that could be a big hit. If anything they could always try a limited edition trial run to see how they sell and if they're a hit, branch out into more. If not, move on and try other things. But I like the idea of boxers entering into business ventures that stem from their passion of the sport. It's something their knowledgeable about and can have moderate to overwhelming success in if they execute it properly.
It's his style, he's an explosive counter-puncher goes hard for 3 mins and recuperates between rounds.
He goes hard for 3 punches.
Don't know what ya'll laughing at but this is a smart hustle and something I don't understand why a lot of athletes don't get into fitness. Look at Terrell Owens. Dude had the physic of a Greek god and instead of launching a fitness program/gym, he invested in a darn barbershop. He could have just endorsed a sports drink for goodness sake.
Imagine how financially sound it would be for some of our favorite boxers to get into training, fitness gear, dietary supplements, etc. All these boxers and no one has invested in an boxing apparel line? Pacquiao could have his own glove line, trunks, shoes, etc. Not endorsements, but his OWN line. People would eat that up based on his popularity alone. Just look at Michael Jordan and his shoe line, which stems from his basketball career. His other ventures have failed miserably because he tries to enter markets he has no knowledge of. If more boxers invested in ventures centered around boxing they'd probably stay richer longer.

is it me or does he looks like he has gyno?
Nah you're just a jealous bird chested mother****a.
Can't knock the guys physique but is it me or does he looks like he has gyno?
It does, the 14lbs he lost on that TV show probably has something to do with it.
I was actually hoping Floyd would out with something like this. Guys at the gyms I frequent and some of the BS forum members always talk about his training regimen. He could make a killing selling the "Money May" workout instead of stupid hats and t-shirts.
Yeah, it would be cool to see something like that from Floyd. Maybe he could also put out a mitt routine DVD and not let "Coach Rick" be the only one making money off of what the Mayweathers made famous.
I'm having a laugh at Haye not because of the idea but because he's doing a Tae Bo style workout. Should have put out a weightlifting routine instead.

They could do fitness programs, workshops for the youth looking to get into boxing, etc. I hate seeing boxers go broke and selling all their memorabilia (Holyfield). No way that should happen to the greats. Sorry for rambling.
Much success to Haye and I'd like to see other top boxers follow suit business wise.
he lifted lots of weights to get the body he's got now...all the sh1t on the dvd wont do anything for you...same sh1t as billy blanks tae bo
You take that back Billy Blanks is the GOAT of workouts :crying:
