Dunno him but hope he makes some dough!

He's been fighting on TV a couple of times and still not making good money? How much are they paying guys at his level ? $500 / RD?

He made 4 figures for the Kauffman fight, that much I know.

Damn I can't remember when the last time I heard somebody say 4 figures, I feel blessed my unemployment is probably what he got it a full nights work. I'm pulling for this guy b/c he has that story we don't often hear about much with all the attention on the big name fighters. Its gotta be tough being the catfish. WAR GRANO!!!
