    A manager like Cameron Dunkin would take care of the monthly stipend, NOT Top Rank.

    SMH at these rookie idiots.
    They give advances all the time.
    Not to mention the money spend on actually promoting the fight. Generating interest in fighters, etc. Not just covering the fighters purse. There is a lot more that goes on but your 17 year old head obviously can't comprehend.

    If it was so easy why don't you do it?

      Thanks




      Thanks for the replies.

      For the club shows, Are your only sources of revenue from ticket sales and whatever sponsorships you can get for the event?

      And what was the avg budget of your club shows and usually what % is going towards the fighters purses.
      Tickets and sponsors are really it. Some promoters sell slots to other promoters. I did that occasionally as a favor, but I didnt like doing it much because since they are paying for it they usually only want to put their guy in with a dummy, and alot of times those kinds of fights can stink up a show.

      As for budget, I could usually get a club show done for anywhere between $35k-40k in my usual venue. If I had to book it elsewhere, add another $5-7k.

      purses at that level usually represented somewhere between 1/3 and 1/2 of the overall budget.

          Advances does not = Salary you nitwit. They are garnered from future wages.

          Top Rank spends ZERO promoting Solo Boxeo cards. You STILL haven't explained how Top Rank "loses millions"... stooooopid

            It's a little pathetic that you spent TWELVE years of your life with nothing to show for it.

            Will "OnePunch" be in the boxing history books for anything at all?

            NOPE

              You must spread some reputation around before giving it to OnePunch again.

                thats where you are wrong. I have PLENTY to show for it. The experiences I had, the relationships I developed, everything I got over those years an idiot like you could never understand. Boxing gave me a helluva lot more than I gave it.

                I already had money, so that wasnt the important part for me, and in the end I doubt I spent over $500k over the course of a decade, which as it turns out was worth every penny, and probably alot more. I wouldnt trade it for 10 times that.........

                  He doesn't have to, the guy still obviously knows more than you. Also a PBC fanboy should not be criticizing anyone's business model they aren't exactly thriving.

                      Then ticket sales & sponsorship.

                      The Solo Boxeo shows can see from $80k to $100k in revenue on average.
                      Thanks again
