Where do you invest your money? Comment down below!! Watch next: How to Throw a Knockout Punch in Boxing | KO PUNCH - th-cam.com/video/OYGFt63aMLg/w-d-xo.html
Man I just had my second boxing session today at 23 years old. Your awesome videos made me want to start. The boxing coach is so important. Everything you say in this video is so true! Hope you have a great day, Tony!
I saw an interview of a former pro football player who became a financial advisor specifically for former pro athletes. He said that advisors were made available to active pro athletes but they didn't use them and several years after retiring they were broke.
This is why really everyone goes broke. They don’t file taxes properly, they spend more than they earn, and they don’t invest. Everyone should invest. Myself & the wife have a few going. We need something to keep money coming in if, Heaven forbid, there are more lockdowns that force us out of work again 🙄
Theres no words that can describe how much respect i have towards you brother 🥊💯🙏🏻. Im 16 and i was seriously considering to start conpeteng in boxing, but everybody ij my town says its to late for me to start, which i know isnt true. God bless you🙏🏻, i hope one day i will step up in the ring🥊
If you don't learn how to make money work for you, you will forever work for money. That's my motto, it's not just boxers many people who earn lots of money fast blow it because they don't understand it. I applaud you Tony for teaching these people a different way to use they're skill to benefit them.
@@Tony_Jeffries Definitely thank you. I do not spar very often and now that I’m older I’m just doing it for fitness. But all and all I was mostly self training since I was 12 and didn’t have my first sparring session until 19, I haven’t received that kind of punishment. Just talking in general for professional boxers that will do it for 15+ years, I just love this sport to much to continue to see tragedies that are otherwise avoidable, appreciate the response, huge fan of yours and keep up the amazing work your doing ✊🏼
Did u like the lame changes they made to football? Im watching boxing videos to learn how to get faster Kos. How can I safely knock someone out 😂? Seems like what u want is better referees.
@@m.israel2209 Impact dampening gloves? For what reason? Kos are an important part of boxing people wanna see knockouts the nature of the sport is dangerous no matter what the only way I see it getting safer is the other things you said but the gloves nah.
Iran Barkley ended up down and out sleeping rough . All his " friends " disappeared when the money was gone . Thankfully someone discovered his situation and he got some help . But almost too late .
TJ!!! This is so SO important to atheletes ESPECIALLY prize fighters... They get taxed at "bonus pay" or "incentive pay" rate percentages which is much higher than salary or hourly wage rates. As it pertains to fighters, they often have agents, reps, a team, etc that all get a piece of the pie (operating costs) before they get their personal income note. Its honestly not fair because the industry is set up to use the fighter as a performing asset, but as a prize fighter, you NEED to invest in financial legal counsel (contracts specifically) preferably a firm not affiliated with your League, Promoters or sponsors. Ultimately You need to focus on training and fighting and let someone legally obligated to work in YOUR best interest to handle the money... Boxing is a hard way to make a living, but this info spans all professional athletic or venue appearance paid professions...
This is what I'm scared of if I became a pro and made boxing as my career.... But now my plan is to aim for the national team and compete at Olympics as an amateur.... Hey Tony do I get money if I became an olympian?
wow! i get the no. #3 mixed with no. #1. That's why so many clients are not coming back. I think i am going to make 2 groups in the future: The boxers and those who want fittness through boxing. This was educational for me. THX!
There are also the deductions boxers have to pay e.g. 10% trainer fee, 25% manager then sparring partners hiring the gym etc. Great advice about paying the tax, just bite the bullet and do it. 😧
Tony, loving all the content lately. I know you have a brief video on the right hook but was wondering if you could do a more in depth video on range and set up beyond using the jab. Thanks and cheers 🍻 from across the pond!
Were you able to check my first sparring tips mate? th-cam.com/video/zmS5Id0bV_4/w-d-xo.html You may get some tips there - except you that will be a real fight
Tony, we need more people like you in America. You represent the American dream, hard work, dedication, personal accountability, responsibility and the ability to dream. You did things the right way and deserve all the rewards you receive. I have so much respect with how much time and effort you put into your videos. How you are passing forward your legacy and knowledge to others through your videos.
How do boxers find promoters or managers? What if a great fighter is left in obscurity because they're promoter can't get them out of the regional scene?
Tony coach I have been always losing fight all my friend are in next level I dedicate so many years but I end up losing it is due to my work and study focusing on boxing has become hard plz make a video about it
When Mike Tyson talked about his money, I was shocked He had 300mil $ and not only he lost it, at the end he was 40mil in debt and had to fight to get out of that debt
Not just sound advice for pro boxers, but for any professional athlete. How many former NFL or NBA players end up broke? Plenty enough to need to listen to this.
@@Tony_Jeffries like how someone can last long in the sport while taking so much trauma or even someone starting later then most can still capitalize in there older age
tony. not every athlete has the business mind. obviously you got the business mind, beside boxing. you made a risky move by investing in box n burn, but you lower that risk with your boxing knowledge- you know what you invested in. also you made a smart move to adapt to a needs of a fitness industry. flexibility and fast adaptation is a characteristic of a good businessman. my advice to the professional boxers would be to find a financial professional to who they trust, to make a low risk investment with the majority of their earning. To spend about 20 % of the earning, and to invest 80% of their earning in low risk investments like real estates, or portfolio of bonds.
Hi Tony, great channel- I love it! I have two questions: Can you make more videos of coming and happend fights with your comments? You boxed with Carl Froch. Do you share his opinion, that Andre Ward is a dirty fighter? Best wishes Torben
If every and any elite level athlete of any discipline were to just put away 25% of every paycheck or "purse", they wouldn't have to worry about retirement. Not everyone can be a Money Mayweather where they are actively boxing and overlooking their business, because business ventures or investments can possibly take a toll on your performance and be a distraction, so just saving a quarter of your earnings to use when retired for business ventures can make a difference from living broke or living comfortably.
Getting rich and famous too quickly can be a curse if you aren't ready for all the baggage that comes with it. It boils down to educating yourself on multiple ways of investing your money (taking into account calculated risk, of course) and conditioning yourself to be more of an investor than a consumer.
I think this video will help you ma man th-cam.com/video/L5hf5Ntb1cA/w-d-xo.html being scared in boxing is like your a swimmer and you are afraid of the water...
Tony... so if am 25 y/old in April and havent had an ammy fight nor pro - only one semi pro draw - am i being late to the party if i look at a robust pro career/championship, and contrary to the appearances it is the only goal i really actually have?
I really enjoy your content as always Tony, but call my cynical but its the area where you are, you're half way there. I'm sure you had the foresight to see that the business would get top potential in the states. I can't see it happening in blighty to the same extent. Regardless keep up the good work !
6:30 boxing training supposed to be tuff others wise why doing it sparing bleeding making other people bleed that's the point if you don't like that other wise go to la fitness and suck a winner
Greeting for your passion Tony, I would like to be an amateur fighter and I'm 27 years old to be able to make some money.. is that possible? I am planning to move to Canada and I started boxing 2 months ago. Im an engineer but with the recession it's nearly impossible to find a job.
So can I make money from amatur boxing while I have a full time job? Im thinking that IF im lucky enough to find a job then making few extra grands per year from amateur boxing would be so great for me financially, besides the fun and joy I get from boxing

Do you plan on having a video for how to make boxing safer? Introducing better medical protocols, maybe impact dampening gloves, etc.

Really interested in the part you say there are ways around tax
I’m very glad to have found this channel
Worked on building site with Richard Dunn renovating Butlins at Filey in the 80s. Incredible.
They end up break cos they don’t start a TH-cam channel 😂😂

Simple if you expenses are high and you income doesn’t come with a retirement guess what happens when you career is over
Hmm not that super simple mate.. They have to build income generating business or assets
to be honest boxers money should come second to boxing they should focus on getting better and better than spending it on useless garbage
I agree but they should also think about the future mate.. you know after retirement
Mayweather left the chat...

why boxers end up broke? because most dont make any money lol
or some don't manage their finances properly
Because they sign contracts that they don't even read and each one of their surrounding is trying to get as more benefits as possible.
I agree you have to understand those contracts
