Shrewd is the word? Countless times Oscar was in the driver seat to decide how much percentage his opponents deserve, heheh.
well oscar is rich and successful because he was in control of his career and he wants the same for other fighters and his opponents made their highest career paydays fighting him itz not like he hung them dry. hopkins got 11 million, Vargas got 8 million, trinidad made 13 million, mosley made 7 million. none of these fighters ever came close to making the same amount of money fighting other opponents.
"Very few people really understand what it means to be a fighter. I hate it when I hear someone say, 'That fighter doesn't have guts. I hate that, I don't care if you're a world champion six times over or a four-round fighter, to step inside that ring, you have to have guts" Oscar De La Hoya
