    I always thought that King gave Tito a sick deal. Isnt it like a 10 mill minimum no matter who he fights or something? King is still spending Tyson money.

        I would like just to see what in Kings bank account. Just a print out or something after he uses the ATM.

              he didn't go with don king because arum doesn't want to do business with king or haymon. floyd isn't ******. he knows this and he knows the big $$$ fights will be with top rank fighters.

              that's why gbp will be handling him from now on when he deals with top rank. also why they gave him a juicy paycheck and a nice big name tuneup in the form of the jmm fight imo.

              pacquiao-mayweather and cotto-mayweather will happen this year or next.

                i think this is the first time you have put your "hating" to the side and said something that makes sense.

What I could have got up front with this fight could have been 100 million dollars total. But guess what, I'd rather do business and stick with the people who were there for me in my rough times like Al Haymon."
                  lols, c'mon floyd, atleast use a figure that is realistic.

                    Maybe he was talking about like a 5 fight contract and get the money upfront. I don't know if anyone does that because I don't know the inner workings of the business, but I would think that it would be something along those lines.

                      Nothing made me happier than when I was watching the movie TYSON and Mike said he whooped King outside of a hotel.
