Comments Thread For: Dulorme Not Making Money With TMT, Starts Driving Uber

[Shaolin Sword]

People think rich people will look out for them.

Floyd is the same guy who called a contract HBO offered him $2m a fight a "Slave contract". Same guy now says PBC fighters are getting paid too much, when I don't remember the last time a PBC fighter even made $2m.

It's not knocking Floyd, Floyd has always been about Floyd. Just a friendly reminder that yeah you signed with a rich promoter doesn't mean he's going to make you rich. Don King didn't become become rich and powerful by paying out big purses.

Lol Mayweather is such a self-centred fairy. He doesn't want other fighters making bank because it means he gets a smaller share as a promoter.

UBer and Lyft are taking taxi drivers jobs

But man Im scared to drive an uber, its dangerous you dont know what type of set up will happen or weirdos or violent thugs will go at you.

Now that is something Floyd could actually do because he obviously has some so he could work out a deal where his fighters get financial advice from his people or that firm at least and even if they were rookies that the firm wanted to get experience they would likely be blue chippers. Would be a good thing he could do for his guys.

The better route for most fighters would be take a class in personal finance, learn how to budget and save properly in the right proportion to your earnings. Then when they have a bit of a bankroll go to the financial adviser and actually look like someone who has their **** together so they will care about doing a good job because the person actually knows a bit not thinking about how to get money from this person while they still has it. A financial adviser is great but nothing replaces a guy actually having real knowledge themselves in how to manage their money. Which is another thing Floyd can do for his guys, get his them a class in personal finance I know they would teach that at UNLV and professors will take jobs on the side like that especially if online.

Its not really even a promoters job to help you with your money. That's your managers job.

Floyd is his promoter. If you're asking your promoter for money he's just giving it to you based on future earnings. Go ask Manny about that sh^t. And Dulorme's future earnings aren't as sexy as Manny's were when he was busto or needed money or whatever.

Who's Dulorme's manager? Is he still with Cameron Dunkin?

Still it is something Floyd could do for his guys, although generally speaking it is better for a promoter to keep guys dumb about their money because that will keep your guys having to fight rather than getting fat, dumb and happy.

Fighters starting to become self aware about the earnings they are generating for a promote is like Skynet becoming self aware and the effect that has on human population.

SBC promotions not getting it done.

What promoter is signing up his fighters for money management classes? Fair play to critique Floyd about stuff he should be critiqued about, but this seems like a weird thing to expect from Floyd or any promoter.

Floyd's job is to get him fights. He gave him a fight in Jan. after signing him in Nov. & is likely shopping for fights now & likely a good &/or meaningful fight cuz one thing Floyd does is put his guys in sink or swim situations quickly.

Where is his manager in all this? Where was his manager when he got his career high payday vs Crawford to tell him not to piss that away too quick just in case he lost or got injured or a million other things that could happen? Where is his manager to secure him a job sparring for other fighters? Or find him other potential income generating jobs or side projects?

I mean ffs if he's going to his manager & his manager is saying he signed him up to be a uber driver til Floyd gets him a fight maybe he should be finding himself a new manager instead of dogging his promoter. Floyd & Dulorme get paid when Dulorme fights. Dulorme & Dulorme's manager get paid when Dulorme fights or Dulorme does anything his manager helped secure for him in or outside of boxing.

I think there is far more personal responsibility with Dulorme about this specific situation he finds himself in then some people wanna act like there is. I mean how many employers of 6 months are gonna throw a guy a bunch of money in hopes he can earn it back to pay him back at some future date? Why should Floyd? Floyd probably doesn't even for sure know how serious this kid is yet at this point in his career or know if he can depend on him to cover his side of the deal.

I mean idk if Floyd is on some Don King sh^t with buying his fighters cars and stuff only to write it off from there purses in the future, but it seems like Floyd is loyal to his guys, helps them out & sometimes even micro manages TOO MUCH from what I see (Tank would be a prime example of that lately) that he wouldn't be looking out for this guy to the degree he believes in him like any other promoter would be doing or better based on his past.

And sometimes sh^t it just takes time & its not like there is some random title fight Floyd could get Dulorme into at 140 or 147 randomly right now like he's done for several other guys already. 140 is locked up between Indongo & Crawford & the bs mandatory situation for the rest of the year probably & Dulorme hasn't proven he can do anything at 147 yet to even get on the long list of title fight options for anyone there yet.

All the bums like John Molina the PBC rolled out as opponents, they couldn't get this kid some work?
