    As with all other athletes, a fighter's pay is not based on what he will do that night but on what he has already accomplished. They don't pay ball players based on how many runs or points they score that night, but instead on the previous seasons; why should a fighter be shown less respect for his accomplishments; it suggests he has no value unless he wins, that is wrong.

        --- Lately as in previous seasons or fights.

        DKing famously kept Mr Field propped up to be passed around by the Russians in the day. Good biz for King with the biggest reduction the $75k he earned as a propped up cadaver for Valuev who was terrified to hit him given his American license have been revoked years before.

            King killed Klitschko-Valuev because he wanted a fortune for himself.
