Andre Rozier received $100,000 for the Canelo-Jacobs fight

[Eff Pandas]

When a fighter makes a certain amount, no longer do they pay trainers the typical 10% rate. You think Floyd is paying his father 35M for his 350M pay day vs Pacquiao? Of course not, but Danny still should have paid him more than 100k from his near 12-15M pay day. Rozier probably got the same amount to train Danny against Derevyanchenko.

THIS.

At a certain level of popularity your trainer isn't doing anything worthy of the extra pay the boxer has earned off of HIS personality, persona, excitement in the ring or sh^t talking skills out of the ring. Boxers don't make what guys like Floyd, Manny, Tyson, Canelo, GGG or anyone making 8 digits a fight. You have transcended boxing when you are making that much. And that's just the boxer who did it not the trainer too.

10% to infinity pay is f#cking nuts. A trainer isn't worth THAT much.

Forget all that friendship and bond sht. When you’re dealing with 100s of thousands of dollars you gotta have some sht in writing.

That's pretty ****ing shady of Jacobs......

We see this stuff all the time in boxing. Once those big paydays start rolling in, the fighters greed exponentially increases along with them. They forget all about being a team. They forget all about who was with them every step of the way.

Look how money ruins people, friendships, family etc.

There are always two sides to stories. We gotta hear it from Jacobs too.

And laugh @ trainers getting millions. No trainers deserve that much.

Way back in 87' Leonard split with Dundee for this reason. Leonard wanted to pay a flat fee and Dundee wanted the standard ten percent. Leonard went with Janks Morton who took the flat fee.

I tend to agree with the fighters as they are the one taking the punches and potentially dying and are on average shortening their lives. But 100K isn't reasonable unless you agreed to the deal up front.

PS, Abel is being an ****** as GGG did this up front he didn't stiff him like Jacobs allegedly did.

[Beterbiev#1]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Jacobs signed a contract with DAZN.

Let's say Danny signed a 7 fight deal over X years and would've gave Rosier 2-3 mil over x years? That's a damn good deal for Dre if you ask me. On top of that Dre would be making money from his gym, clothing line and other fighters.

That's all I'm going to say about this as it's a family affair and we should just stay out of it.

Jacobs is a low down, ruthless vato... but i like that homes, i like that

[2ndroundko]

maybe he should have showed up to the gym and trained jacobs instead of taking days off at a time

Rozier explained how their situation was different from GGG & Abel. GGG sat Abel down and told him what he'd be paying him and Abel disagreed and they parted ways. Danny never told Rozier he was cutting his percentage. Rozier expected a lot more for all his years with Danny. He's been with Danny since Danny was an amateur. Built Danny from the ground up. Even choose to be in Danny's corner over Dervychenko's. Was with Danny thru his cancer when it looked like Danny may never be able to fight again.

I don't know how much Rozier should've gotten but I do know he's worth a lot more than $100,000. He's probably put that much work in before Danny made his first check. Karma is coming to Danny. You don't do people like that.

So he just trained him the entire camp with no written agreements? Thats his story? But somehow he had the idea he would get 5%..... so that was verbal? At that point he decided to not get it in writing, then that is his own fault. He could still sue jacobs though, with nothing written then its up for them to battle it out.
