    When a guy even worries about not being able to go back to his regular job,
    then you can conclude he's not being paid much in this fight.
    Let's say he gets $50K-80K Canadian for his yearly income,
    Would he still be worried if he gets at least $500K in this fight?
    I don't know, considering training expenses, accommodation, US taxes, etc., he might only get a third of that amount.
    No I don't have a link.
    No such thing as purse split at DAZN.
    GGG signed a contract worth $60 mil for six fights.
    My guess is Loeffler picks his opponents and pays them.

        Taxes on a lump sum pay out of 500k in Ontario is over 250k. He should get a chunk back at tax time. Promotor 20 to 25 percent. Trainer 10 percent. Manager 10 percent. Those percentages are most likely from the gross amount so they will probably be tax deductible. Not sure. Sparring partners hotels etc. etc. Fighters on the way up make peanuts for what they do. I'd be worried about losing my job also. I wonder if DAZN has to pay him also. I hope so.

          Rolls is a poor choice there is no way around that. Loeffler claims DAZN picked him because they want to increase subscriptions in Canada. DAZN confirmed that Golovkin would be facing an easy opponent for his first fight but this is bad. Fielding isn't any better. He was clueless on how to use his size against Canelo.

            Why Fielding is not better than Rolls.

            Fielding was top-20 of his division and bigger than. Canelo

            What can you Say about Rolls?

            It's hard to you but you need to put arguments behind

              Yeah top 20 so what? You know yourself that a ranking in the top 20 can be meaningless unless he's in the top 5 or 6 fighters. Anyway alI can go by what I saw in the ring and Fielding did not use any ring craft.

                Why Rolls is better?

                Yeah, he looked like trash because he was fighting with Canelo , #1 P4P in the world

                Still being better than Rolls

                Why Rolls is not ranking in the top-50 of his division?

                  He's not that good because he got KOed early by Canelo with body shots. KOed previously by Smith in one round with body shots. China Chin Khan a Welterweight lasted longer than Fielding. You can't deny that Fielding was a shrewd cherry pick by team Canelo.

                    And rolls?

                    That guy has 35 years and only a fight of 10 rounds


                    It was a Cherry pick and for me canelo is not champion in 168 pounds

                    But he is better than Rolls

                    Or explain me why Rolls is better and why he is not in a top-70 ?
