    Clottey used to get screwed badly (I mean badly) prior to joining Top Rank. Now it's not as bad.

        Ohhhhh no no no streetbully. That is all wrong my bro.

        Although Joshua has been on HBO with Judah and Cotto, and Showtime with Margarito, he has made **** purses. Im talking real ****. You guys do know he took a 95-5 purse split for this Saturday's fight? What do you think he took for the Cotto fight in MSG on the eve of the Puerto Rican parade? 5% might sound really small but for a hungry man like Clottey at the age of 32 and no name value, thats more than he can ask for, thats 1 million dollars this saturday. He took short purses against all 3 of the top fighters he fought. Judah took a huge piece of the license HBO paid for their fight as well which I think was 300k. Dont think for a sec that Judah and HBO gave Clottey even one third of that. That was Clotteys first time on HBO and made him around 50k, a move up from fighting on VS and ESPN for 10k. Clottey just hasnt made enough money in boxing but this Saturday if he will be very well off. I hope he manages his money and makes a few more good purses after this.

                      Thats one million dollars hell be making, maybe a lil more when everything gets added up. He has never made one third of that. The Event is basically riding solely on Pacquiao's name.

                      I wouldnt doubt that. Honestly, If my family wanted we could build a Mansion in Ghana tomorrow. He's not broke this dude might have just thought Clottey had more money. But he doesent have much.
