    This article shows why so many boxers become poor after their careers.The gross is always good but these guys are taken advantage of especially Manny.Most of the boxers live on the advances from promoters that's why it becomes difficult to leave promoters.
    There is no such thing as a cap. Mayweather did not outprice himself with De la Hoya when Oscar was fighting his son. Oscar was guaranteed $25 million for that fight and ended up making over 40 million. $2 million was less than 10 percent. The reason Oscar didn't agree to it is because Oscar is a greedy bastard. He ended up payign Freddie Roach $500,000, $500,000 out of $40 million earned That is a joke.

    He doesn't want to pay anyone anythign close to what they are worth. If you look at any of Oscar's PPV, you will see that all the undercard figthers are no-name fighter who earn very, very, very little money. That is because Oscar is the greediest mother****er in boxing, bar none.

    Manny Pacquaio has been taken advantage of by his promoters and his managers just like Mike Tyson was. What Pacquaio should have done is hire an attorney, place him on retainer and have him handle everything for him. That way, he wouldn't have been ripped off by manager and two promoters. Incidentally, he is still being ripped off by Arum, who takes 27 percent of his purse on top of the amount Arum earns from promoting him.

      Preach on brother! Amen!

      And the one thing Tyson and Pac have in common? Shelly "Fink" Finkel

If someone can let me know someday, cool.
          you're black? .

              That is very true. The same can be said for half Japanese, Chinese, Korean, etc.... Americans. A lot more pride in heritage in those countries.
