Peter got a nice pay-day!

[BattlingNelson]

**** me why did they pay him so much?.

Seems like the Germans pay quite a bit more than the Americans do when one of their stars is in the show.

That seems to be why a lot of guys go their to fight rather than collecting peanuts in the USA.

Contribute the big purses to the low value of the dollar.

I was wondering why, for all his talk before the fight, he didn't seem that disappointed after retiring in his corner

Could it be that Sam took the loss like a man? He actually did have the look of disappointment and defeat on his face...

Did you expect him to cry in his corner like Bostice did after his fight with Wlad?

He looked to me to enjy the fact that fight was over. He seemed kinda tense in the build-up as well. Maybe he doesn't have the psyche (word?) to compete in big time bally-hoo boxing.

He looked somewhat relieved that he didn't need to take Vitali's punches in his face anymore.

He probably does lack the heart of a champion, although he took a lot of shots in the fight with Wlad, and went the distance in that one.

The fight with Wlad he did drop him so that automatically made him more encouraged to take some shots and keep winging them despite being outboxed..

With Vitali, there wasn't one second of that fight when he was winning so it was easy for him to be discouraged pretty fast and relieved when the beating was finally over.

He only got $140,000


The rest were Don King's fees.

[MELLY-MEL...]

thats alot of money for him, and he never makes that again.

Exactly. Peter could not see any hope of winning.

Oh you mean the Terry Norris arrangement.
I am so glad that guy sued King and won.
Hopefully King learned his lesson and rips people off some rather than stealing all their earthly possessions.

That's ace money.

I wonder how much modest heavyweights like Sprott get for giving undefeated German-based fighters a solid workout.
