That's pathetic.

No one takes care of their fighters like Top Rank.

I don't care what anyone says but they build their fighters up better than anyone. If there is no HBO or Showtime dates for his guys, Arum spends money out of his pocket to get them PPV. That **** is not cheap to do, and he probably loses money on a lot of those PPV's. But he does it to keep his guys busy and in the spotlight. People think he does it to rip off fans and make money, but it's the furthest thing from the truth.

Great post.

It's still a big payday for Clottey. You have to realise Clottey is not like modern day fighters who ***** about money/weight issues because they think they will lose. Clottey's mentality is he's getting a load of money to go and beat someone smaller than him in a huge event in a massive stadium, and he genuinely believes he can beat Pac.
Let's face it, if you were a fully fledged former Welterweight champion who comes in at pretty much the Middleweight limit on fight night you too would think you had a good chance against Pac who's only recently come up to the weight.

I love to watch both fighters and i think Pac wins but you have to realise how this looks like to Clottey and not just to boxing fans.

This fight is at least worth 2 mill to Clottey. 1.8 at best. Clottey has a little name, is a former champion but is another Top Rank dummy. Top Rank builds their fighters up then throws them to the dogs. Where will Clottey go after he loses. He will officially become an opponent.

How is that greedy? You are worth what people are willing to pay you.
