[boxasmash]

Mike would be on -$5M if it was 2009.

[Fights]

y why do the promoters take more cash then fighters.... don't understand it

It's how the Entertainment Industry works.

Movie Actors = Boxers
Talent Agents = Promoters
Movie Studio = Television Channel

Example:
Actors: Will Smith, Christian Bale, George Clooney, Angelina Jolie, and Daniel Craig.
Talent Agent - Baron Entertainment, Media Artists Group
Movie Studio: Fox, Paramount, MGM, Sony Pictures, Time Warner, Disney

what the hell do these promoter job really consist of. these fighter got to many people hands in there pocket.

Promoters are basically talent agents. Almost every major sports has agents whose job consists of scouting for talents.

[Fights]

hahah thats a ****** list

Do you honestly beleive that Mayweather-Marquez will do better in PPV numbers than Pacquiao-Cotto?

[switch44]

You forgot to put BRUCE LEE on the list.. LMAO

[eazy_mas]

I think you rarely see boxers on the list is because most of the money from the boxers are taken from promoters.

Manny is one the list because he has other thing other than boxing he has his own business in philipines he is also a living icon there so that sells alot for him already.

Mayweather is on the list because he owns his own promotional company as well as he earns abit above other fighters but it helps to own you own promotional company.

The question is if Manny is going to grow bigger than Bob Arum and open his own promotional company? if Manny is going to be self promoted Arum is going to loss alot of money
