YES Sometimes Promoter, and sometimes just a bet between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Parker Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Ive heard of a bet between 2 guys for a supermatch. Do they do it all official with paperwork or is it just on the honor system? If it is on the honor system, has anyone ever heard of times where someone would not or could not pay up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbrown Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) They have a third person hold the money before the matches start. There have been a time were the match was set and one guy did not show up. The other guy had traveled a great distance a got screwed. Now they try to get the money to a third person days in advance. Generally in the case of these bigger matches like Devon and John. I believe they are being paid just to show up. Win or lose. But the winner gets more.
