      I'm to understand he hits the gym regularly even when not active but I hear your point at this point he might not work as many hours as the average guy. I've just seen the work Pro Athletes at the top level put in and I step up when people talk about they don't deserve what they get.

          Why don't you try your hand at being a pro boxer?

          For the most part athletes work harder than some individual pushing papers in an office. People will probably get vex at me saying this but if you're a lawyer, a builder, cab driver etc. the physical drain it puts on your body is less than the physical strain put on your body through getting punched around and pushing your body to its limits.

              The mental stress of earning just enough to get by and worrying about mortgage/rent, family, bills, etc. is far more taxing on an individual than fighting once a year and hitting up the gym during your off time, taking extended vacations for long periods of time and making $30+ million for a fight.

              Really if the biggest problem in your life is to whether or not to make $40 million or a $100 million in a year or to split it up into two years is laughable!

                More money you earn the more you have to worry about it. Look at things this way, my parents together earn £100k a year, I'm a student who earns next to nothing. Really speaking you'd think they'd be less stressed than me because they earn more money? Wrong. They have more commitments more bills to pay.

                When you're at the top, the bottom is a long fall.

                Also I will say this now, when your options are restricted that provides less stress than when you are in a situation where you can make a change.
