    Comments Thread For: Prograis: I Learned From Blowing My Money; If I Didn't, I'd Be Screwed Right Now

    By Keith Idec - Regis Prograis earned nearly $30,000 for his first televised fight. The eventual WBA super lightweight champion had never made that much money for a single bout before out-pointing Amos Cowart in an eight-rounder Showtime televised from Atlantic City, New Jersey, as part of its "ShoBox: The New Generation" series in August 2015...

    It’s an important lesson all fighters must learn, it’s a short career. You have to make sure you can make yourself financially sustainable.

    Looking forward to seeing Prograis back in action. Good fighter.

        Although he’s a clown, I do worry for Broner, the legal fees are mounting, more baby mommas = more child support payments, and the opportunities to earn money inside the ring seem to be drying up. Regardless of the person, I hate to see anyone have money then go broke.

            This is what I want to hear or see from these guys. But even he has a lot to learn still. Didn’t he post a video of himself speeding on the motorway. Things like that would shorten your life. Anyways it’s great that he is managed by people with the right goals.

                True that. There is no joy seeing, especially boxers broke after what they have given to the game. Hopefully, all boxers are paying attention.

                  Speaking of money, I heard Josh Taylor snorted a brick of yayo in one day. So given Taylor's exensive habit and his lawyer fees for his drug case and the McGuigan's of Cyclone-Promotions suing Josh, I think we can expect the rematch with Regis Pro, real soon.
