The crazy part to me is he's paying a percentage for gym fees. You should be paying a flat fee for gym fees as they are a specific cost that can be easily budgeted not paying for a talent or skill of a coach. That and the fact that he's paying more for gym fees than he is for the services of a one of MMA's top coaches.
Edit - Just wondering if anyone with knowledge can answer this. Would Jackson taking part of his pay as Gym fees through his business save him taxes in anyway?
A gym fee is a flat fee, not a percentage.
It's more likely that the percentage simply means you take the gym fee divide by Kennedy's total earning.
GYM FEE
------------------- x 100
TOTAL EARNING
For example, let's say Kennedy makes $10,000 in total earning.
And if the gym fee is $1,300 for the entire training camp, the percentage is:
$1,300 Gym Fee
------------------------- x 100 => 13%
$10,000 Total earning
...
But... let's say Kennedy makes $20,000 in total earning, then the percentage is:
$1,300 Gym Fee
------------------------- x 100 => 6.5%
$20,000 Total earning
