Just curious. Useless information really but something I've always wondered.

depends on the fighter, but typically when we bring in sparring partners they get around $500 a week plus travel, hotel and meals, sometimes a little more

yeah i think i remember ODLH on 24/7 saying he pays his 1000 a week..plus hotel/food/etc..so 500 for smaller fighters seems right.

Nothing. Manny's partners are nobodies and we all know Roach is stingy with the money. They get a nice head ache and 500 bucks.

I thought it was steroids? Oscar has connects, he is a business man.

a session? no

a week is what the average is and it can go up to about 1500 per week or as low as 500 per week depending on how good you are.

expenses like travel and lodging are taken care of in advance. If you have been flown in the can also take care of your per diem expenses too

I helped with Margarito's fights with Mosley and Williams

we paid 1000 per week plus 200 for meals for PWill but we had a training budget allotted to us

we paid around 750 to 800 per week plus mileage for the Mosley fight because there wasn't a training budget to work with and all of the fighters we got were local
