I like him a lot and the way he plays but oh my….

(Champion later asked Butler if he was paying five of his friends to travel with him, and he confirmed it.)



Butler: I don't have an entourage. I'm not Mark Wahlberg. ... They comfort me, they humble me, they never let me forget where I'm from. That's the most important thing to me. This money, it doesn't mean anything to me, I'm going to always take care of my people. I don't think that that's a bad thing. I think that if you've been with me from the jump, you deserve to live the same lifestyle that I live. So I always got my guys around. I don't consider it an entourage, I think it's family.

Champion: So you hired them all?

Butler: Yeah. But they all do stuff. Dodo (Chris Johnson), he's my basketball trainer. He is with me everywhere. If I'm here, we work out here, 5 a.m. I was up early so I didn't get to do it this morning. if I go to Argentina he has to come with me. And I always keep at least one of my brothers with me. And one of my brothers is out there right now. That's the way I like to travel. Because I always like having people I'm comfortable with around me.

... If I have too many of my people around me it's bad. I mean, my money's going to be everywhere. And you know everybody says, 'Save it, save it, save it,' but I got to take care of my people because they do so much for me. ... And they would never take advantage of me so I give them that. I'm a smart individual. I don't say too much but I pay attention to everything.

Be curious to know, how much he pays them and how lavish their lives are?

One good business manager could provide that to be OK, but it is amazing how many athletes allow it without a plan.....and Jimmy "the money means nothing"....WYC!!!!!!
