this seems like one of the most ******ed things i've ever read on this forum.... what was he suppose to do, not pay him??

my boss pays me every friday too........ i thought it was cause im doing my job, not cause he wants to take care of me

So clottey would have made a million dollars elesewhere lol

The funny thing about the people that talk so much shit about Arum are the same ones who care about their favorite boxers making money and doing "smart business decisions". Yet when Arum does something smart on business, they hate on it.

It's pure envy and jealousy, either racial or religious. Besides, they're extremely ignorant and usually low mentality. They can't help that.

smh.....................

yeah but surely from a fighters point of view signing with arum is the smart thing to do. His fighters make good money

[01samuelc]

yup remove pacquaio from his rodster and clottey would never have seen anywhere close to 250k and that being in house, now do buisness with other promotional company and doubt he breaks 100k

What you have to think is he is milking pacquaio for paydays and any fighters will take the risk against pacquaio for an all time high payday.

Clottey made good money against cotto as well.

clottey beat judah and had super close fights with margarito and cotto that could have gone either way. stop acting like he was just some bum who only got a shot because he had the hook up. clottey's ww resume sh-its on floyd mayweathers. fighting tough fighters over and over doesn't pay off obviously because you get no respect. you get more respect if you duck and cherry pick but keep winning. strange.

Arum is an ATG. He can shoulder roll questions, he got a nasty inside game. He can jab during conferences, he can hook in the news, he can feint and make you knock yourself out by planning ahead. And only he, the most interesting man in the world, could rewrite yesterday's history like telling the truth and telling a lie is one in the same.

Easy work, easy money

[M.I Truth ?]

Wasnt Clotteys higher than normal purse also attributed to Jerry Jones matching his original purse thus doubling what Clottey was supposed to be Paid? Im pretty sure it was. It was a main event on a ppv that was fought in a stadium with 50k people in it. Jones was happymwith the turn out.

The guy has been ruining the sport for the last two years.He's the hater.
