Comments Thread For: Daniel Jacobs and Andre Rozier at Odds Over Money

[Boxing_1013]

Who have you ever trained?
Your postings sound unlogical

Did you mean illogical...unlogical is not really a word...as evidenced by the red-line underneath when you tried to write it

? And what do you mean? The fighter deserves the lion's share of the money...and the trainer and others around the fighter should max out at a certain fixed amount in my opinion...the fighter is taking all the risks, and should reap the heavy share of the rewards.

I was giving an example - that if I trained someone, especially a loved one, I would be very happy for him that his risks and hard work paid off, and he was finally making big money...I would not feel entitled to another man's money! Period...

Unfortunately those like Able and AR showed their character here...a real trainer should feel happy for his fighter that the guy is getting the big money he fought so hard for, and the trainer should feel very very happy to be getting paid hundreds of thousands of dollars per fight! Do not like people who feel entitled to someone else's hard earned money...

Hard to judge situations like this without knowing what’s going on behind the scene.

All I know is, *** the 10% off of multi millions. When it reaches that level, 10% no longer applies.

Not to sound harsh but in Boxing, fighters deserve all the credit and glory for themselves. Sure it requires a good support team but at the end of the day, it’s just the fighter inside that ring taking punches and making crucial decisions.

Yes well said man...completely agree

Yeah, you do get to a certain point in the amount of money you make that 10% just isn't going to cut it. You think Mayweather was paying his father and the rest of the training staff 10% off the 500M+ he made for the Pacquiao/McGregor fights? No way.

Granted, that example may be extreme considering Jacobs isn't making nearly as much. But he's now reaching 8 figures so giving 10% of that is still quite a bit. I'm sure Rozier is still making more now than he was before but maybe he just feels disrespected. And he has every right to feel that way as does Danny.

Hoping these two come to some sort of an agreement and get the band back together.

Hey Rob how about if you dont get 100000 of thousands of dollars. How about if you get much less than that. You dont know me or my Character. I've been with my fighters since they began and I have given them most of my life so if you dont know the story please dont talk it

Bro definitely do not lower yourself to the level of these people, keep your cards close to your chest and make your money, let these broke know it alls count your money while you enjoy it, stay true to yourself and keep producing champions in and out the ring because at the end of the day you forgot more than they know about boxing and finances.

Don't see them working this out esp after Rozier's comment.
