    That's what you get for wanting it "right now" He'd be a millionair today... to bad!

    Not really,Stallone also offered him a residual he's never paid up

    I should probably explain,there are two parts to a contract, initial and residual.
    Initial is what you get up front, residual is what you get down the road if it sells.
    Wepner is claiming he's never got his promised residuals
    Allways read your contract carefully

    Really? You can get the court transcript online and I've read them but only saw Wepner claiming this and never anything in writing... I'm not saying it was never said but just that there's no proof... He's lost 2 court cases so far.

    Allways get it in writing,never take a promissory note on anything, and this drives the point home
    I allways tell my fighters,we'll go over the contracts
    It takes longer that way
    But you'll get seriously screwed hardcore if you dont

    Yes indeed... I used to work for a debt collector.. And if it's not in writing or doesn't have a signature, by law (in court) you are going to have no claim to it...

    On the other side of the coin, If a clear statement is written on a cocktail napkin and has a signature on it declaring all to be true and accepted, then you could take over Microsoft in court with it.

    It's about what is in paper and what has a signature at the bottom... That's it..
