Just Heard Jay Z gave Rigo 10 million! Worst businessman since Dela Hoya?

[SilverMiles]

How long before they ask for their money back, lol just playing.

But really Rigo is a terrible buy. I think he might be a little slow as well. HBO says we need you to put on a show and he goes out and lands 5 punches around against Agebeko who was landing 2 punches around.

But happy for Rigo I would take the money too and just fight like I always fight.

Good for Rigo. Maybe it's for a few big fights.

[Redd Foxx]

Can't be possible. There isn't 10 mil to be made on Rigo, no matter what he does from here on out. That's no slight on him, just math. Sounds like talk.

Excellent source you provided.

[48cantCstraight]

It's ironic how people in this thread are calling jay-z ******. You're ***in ****** if you believe this **** without a source.

[STREET CLEANER]

Really struggling to work out if sober Jay Z is a more ******ed businessman than coked up/recovering Oscar. Like I love Rigo and am happy he got big bucks, but no way in hell is he worth 10 millie. He is an unbelieveable boxer, like Ward, but he must hate money.

Do you have a link for that. Nobody knows who is Rigo so I doubt they would pay that much and on top of that Rigo is not young and there are no super fights that can be done with him

[285Kid]

Good for Rigo + Robbing Jay-Z is a good thing.

Jay-Z help killl new york rap , when he had his company he was only signing philly young rappers

[MrRolltide91]

Source?.....

[TRTboy]

No source? That can't be true. For sure jay-Z and his management are not that ******? Rigo for all his god given talent is not just TV material. How you going to make that money back on rigo?

[hectari]

He gave him 10 million for one fight? or is this a multiple fight contract?

Rigo is not worth that money, he doesn't have fans to be honest as a promoter you need to invest in fighters who give a good return, build them up but you cant pay them something they are not worth, is he a great technical boxer yes, but the business end of boxing you need to put butts in seats and Rigo doesn't do that.

Jay Z also gave Andre Ward like a 40 million dollar contract, and Ward hasn't even fought on PPV, he also offered Adrien Broner a huge contract more than Broner is even worth, I don't understand the process here, offering guys these huge contracts is very risky because these guys have to bring back the money and make profit for him in order to justify that contract.
