algeri better be glad he got what he got........the guy literally got stopped in 5 rounds and he made almost more then spence for that wtf........

what happens between him and his trainer is his personal business.

"... off of me stepping in the ring and risking my life"

This being key. No matter what a promoter says in their own defence, the number one priority is that a fighter gets paid what he's owed for – as Algieri said, stepping in the ring and risking their lives. A promoter sitting behind their cushy desk for decades on end isn't the one who's going to get a brain bleed in the ring.

For a journeyman, he has made some damn good money.
