Mayweather, Canelo, and the Joe Frazier Statue

[Jaymz8604]

Mayweather and Canelo have a bet that the winner pays 80 pct. towards a Joe Frazier statue AND for the full renovation of the original KRONK GYM?? Well, if so, it's about time the multi millioniares of our sport give something back like this? The money would be a drop in the bucket for them! We should get a movement going to make things like this keep going..every time a fight pays over 10 million to one guy he should take some of that money and put it back into boxing....give something concrete back to the fans/sport that allowed u to be WEALTHY!!

Nice sentiment

But given boxing is more of a business

And America being a Polyarchy

So the scope of giving back is limited

Would be great if it happens, but I have my doubts. The original Kronk gym of course could be somewhat of a moneymaker tho, so who knows?

Would be great! They could pay both off and not even know the money was gone...the millionaires of boxing could rebuild the landmarks of our sort...next stop would be to add a new wing to the TINY boxing hall of fame that they will one day be in...
