      Not to mention that for 10k, no place is substandard. I don't care if you're David Rockefeller.

          youre exaggerating, but I do get your point. In the end, the guy is still getting a million dollars. thats 10 years of very good living right there.

          but heres the thing: Nobody is making you get the benz. If you want to waste your money on ****** **** and end up in the poor house years later, suite yourself.

          It breaks my heart to hear about fighters like Sam Langford who fought their heart out and ended up with nothing. I definitely feel for them, and support them all the way if theyre going the money route. But there is a HUGE difference between a guy fighting to makes ends meet and a guy fighting to add to his piggybank, which is already overloaded with cash.

          But many studies have shown that a middle ground salary results in the happiest people overall. I definitely care about boxers' well being, and would never want to see someone who fought so hard end up with nothing. but when theyve got millions already in the bank, its not my concern how much money theyre getting anymore: they should already be set for life.

            Rinse, lather, repeat.

            Should be obvious by now, unless you're one of his ho's.

            Hey jacky, isnt that what manny did with cotto, marg and clottey?

                  Personally, IDC about how a fighter handles his wealth. Floyd fans seem to care about their fighter as if they were related.
