Floyd is the same guy who called a contract hbo offered him $2m a fight a "slave contract". Same guy now says pbc fighters are getting paid too much, when i don't remember the last time a pbc fighter even made $2m.
It's not knocking floyd, floyd has always been about floyd. Just a friendly reminder that yeah you signed with a rich promoter doesn't mean he's going to make you rich. Don king didn't become become rich and powerful by paying out big purses.

Hardly surprising though. I don't think there's a much money in boxing as people think, unless you're past a certain level and especially when you factor in everything else.
How much would a guy like Dulorme really make for a fight? - then take away tax, cuts for managers/promoters, trainer, training camp expenses etc. etc. etc. If you're fighting once a year like him and your purse isn't great and you have all those cuts and expenses coming out of it, then it probably doesn't equate to a decent living wage at all.

I think he learned his lesson about trying to take care of your fighters lifestyle. Notice how you don't see all those guys around him all the time like you used to. I'm sure he lost a few 100k (maybe a few million) trying to take care of those guys.
Btw Salido drives an Uber too. Some of those drivers make bank lol

He is what he is and not everything is a slur so why so sensitive? none of this shlt affects us anyway.
