for example how can you justify 1.5 million dollars purse for a guy that fights in a half empty arena and that does shitty numbers on tv? money grows on trees
boxers have been getting peanuts and their brains beat in
so excuse me If I don't care much about your entertainment, you are not required to watch fights or fighters you don't like or support.
Man makes money so really no more valuable than the value we put into it.
spend your money how you want to but fighters deserve to be paid better.
that's why fighters worked full time jobs and took fights on short notice so often back in the day. then end up never the same from punishment
these fighters are human......if you were around fighters more often and heard things from their perspective you'd have a different out look

Anyways you absolutey have to entertain fans and please critics etc etc. They are who pay the fighters checks without them there is no boxing. I don't want to hear no **** about the risk, they chose to be a fighter, ****ing act like one. It would be like a cop showing up to a bank robbery and being like, "I'm not paid enough for this. I'm going to sit this one out and come back tomorrow when I only have to deal with someone jaywalking". Its a ridiculous argument. No one is forcing these guys to be fighters.
every athlete takes risks, but no one deserves to be broke, battered and damaged. Where the hell are you idiots humanity. they aren't puppets man.
at the end of the day..i'd rather be beat up with 10 million in my bank than 0 facilities and 100 dollars and up to my neck in bills in debt because my promo, mamager and everyone else benefitted off my sweat blood and tears
and no one is forcing promo and advisors to pay them higher checks nor are they forcing whiny azz fans to watch and tune in
but the point is, human nature, if their is a fight, you will watch it. whether you complain, pay for it or not so why b!tch about something you cant help but watch
enjoy the sport and worry about lining your own pocketsLast edited by therealpugilist; 09-09-2016, 02:07 PM.
