    Denis Boytsov, Universum may as well tie him up in a cellar for all the good they're doing him.

      Universum were actively sabotaging 3G's career for years.

        Def Gamboa and Dirrell. For two fighters claimed to be the next big thing, both have haltered beyond belief. Especially Dirrell - don't know wtf he's doing with his career. Everytime I see an interview from him he's always saying he has a fight coming up - but he's only had two fights in 3 years. He might as well retire now, doubt he'll become relevant again.

        David Haye? wtf, dude has the best management. CW champion after 20 fights, HW champion after 26 and was in the biggest HW fight in the past ten years after 5 or so fights at the weight. Plus, he's rich as hell.

        Bad management to me is either when a career goes to shhits or they are being matched with the wrong guys.

          Based on very very little natural talent, Chisora is a wealthy man to day. I would say that is pretty good management. Where they failed was when they rushed him into big fights,

            Chad Dawson (Glass Jawson)

            As an excuse or explanation for the Universum fighters mentioned above, the stable has lost it's television deal and has filed for bankruptcy which has placed their fighters between a rock and a hard place.

              Andre Ward.

              An undefeated, undisputed world champion, regarded by many as the 2nd best fighter p4p, dominates everyone he fights, and his manager still can't get him paid without having to fight the same people he dominated before, again. Disgraceful management if you ask me.

                I can agree with that a long way, but he was paid $1,3m or something like that against Dawson. Pretty good for a guy that sells about 3k tickets every fight.

                  But that's the thing, if it were anyone other than Dawson, he probably earns little more than half that.

                  And it's probably worth noting that the #2 and 3 guys just made triple that...

                    Lol at lot of these comments....

                    Andre ward mismanagement, the guy is #2 in the world, #1 in his division, cleaned out his division, built his name on foxsports, then showtime, now has Hbo contract plus announcer duties,,, DEF NOT MISMANAGED

                    Chisora- Dude has a club fighter record but has landed some of the biggest fights in the division... Def not mismanaged,,, NAME A GUY WHO IS 14-4 and is still in the mix

                    Gamboa- Not really his managers fault he is an idiot and left top rank for 50cent... Its gamboa's fault not his management

                    I feel the worst managed guys are ones that are in don king's stable that fight once every 15 months..

                      Who should they have got him fights with? They got him into the Super Six where he beat all the top guys? Should he fight bums instead for the sake of variety or what?
