Should promoters take less of a cut going forward?

    Don’t get me wrong , I respect what they do and obviously they’re pulling for the most
    But sometimes the fight don’t balance with the fight
    Ffs , Broner is trying to get 10 million to fight
    Far from 10 but he’ll probably get 6 , not a bad deal imo
    Is he worth it ?
    There might have to be more openness about the total revenue that is being made, like sunny31 says.

    That way the fighters know exactly how much the total pie is and what is a fair cut for them to ask for.

    Certain promoters are notorious for obfuscating or hiding that information.

    Broner is a moron...but he is popular and against the right opponent he might have been worth $10 million before COVID-19 hit. With the way money was being thrown around.

    I don't see him getting that any time soon now, though.

      I'd assume everyone is gonna be getting less. I mean mfers won't be fighting too many times if the Ali Act disclosures end up showing a promoter is keeping more than normal.

        I can agree with that
        I see nothing wrong with that

          Eddie Hearn is now saying that fighter purses are way out of control.
