Jeremy Bates, surely there's a better way for him to make a living?

[ono]

I remember he said he was retiring after Holyfield ko'd him. You never know, I mean I know I have said dozens of times.... "I would fight _______________ for $$$$$$$$$" or "for a Million bucks i'd fight _____________"

Fighting 5 or 6 times and making $30k or so each time would maybe fund a retirement plan. Even though he gets beaten I somehow don't see him as being the broke former boxer. I'll bet he's doing something smart with his extra cash cause he's not a full time boxer.

There's no way he's earning 30k's per fight imo. I reckon he makes about 10k absolute tops.

He's a telephone engineer I think as well, if I were him I'd just ask them for some overtime.

I thought Bates was an insurance sales man

ah wel at least he'l have coverage
