Holyfield, Lewis,Jones Jr, Dela Hoya and Ali.
OK, I just found out RJJ made 10 million for the Ruiz fight, plus 60% of the PPV revenue.
Lewis made 11 million for the Rahman rematch and that was when he was the challenger . Think he made 11 million against Tucker in his first defence which isnt bad against second rate opposition
LOL I remember when they were in negotiations for that fight, there was at one point a contract propsed by Jones camp where Ruiz would make NO money.. And really, it would have been more than he deserved considering he already had the chance to fight Jones as a HW champ. it's a shame he got a freaking cent.Quote:

EDIT: Highest Earning Boxer
Oscar de la Hoya (USA) is the world’s highest-paid boxer, with estimated earnings of $43.5 million in 1999, according to the 2000 Forbes Celebrity 100 list.

I've ALWAYS read that its Mike Tyson by a large majority didn't he make like 14million against Mcbride?
Although Forbes is ostensibly a financial magazine, Pulley seems at his most befuddled when he’s dealing with fiduciary matters. He seems utterly aghast, for instance, when he notes that “Tyson grossed more than $400 million in his career but kept only 25%. During the years he was represented by King, he paid 30% to the promoter, 20% to two managers, and half of what was left to taxes.”
S far a smoney in the bank not carreer earnigs no doubt evander holyfield he is weel invested, shows what happens when youg ot the right people around you
Don't foget RJJ was getting some decent cash from endorseing the Jordan line. Not sure how much he made, but it was probably as much as he made in boxing.Quote:

Calzaghe has made Jack shit mate compared to to the other Champs, he has not been paid £1 Million for one fight yet, Hatton has made £6 Million so far in his career, which will rise here on in. I would say Calzaghe is not even top 80 top earners out of the current crop of boxers.Quote:

2. hopkins: getting into promoting and demands alot for fights
3. tyson: still makes millions for fights against lazy crap fighters
how much money does that fat turdburger butterbean make?
he is a embrassment to the sport of boxing.
i hope he eats his own head.
i know this is seriously off-topic, but seriously. Electric Circus was far and away the worst album Common ever put out--neo-hippy shit for white girls. The new album is a return to form--closer to the classics (Resurrection, One Day It'll All Make Sense).Quote:
