Klitschko Brothers aka The Righteous bros makes shitload but unlike Floyd and Pac, they dont splurge money like foos.
Depends what you consider significant money
Top fighters of the 80's and 90's seemed to get paid way more than that.Quote:

wladimir was in the mid 20s in the list of 100 top earning sport starts of 2012, obviously floyd and pac man were way ahead, I think wladimir made 26 million dollars in 2012... according to the list... not bad... it inculdes sponsor deals and so on... I think floyd pacman and wlad were the only 3 boxers in the list
Does anyone know how much Lucas makes per fight. I bet his stock is going up. I am curious to know what he and Garcia will make on the undercard.
Does anyone think they dont make enough? Floyd makes 100 mil a year and has 2 fights? I would guess Ward made at least a mil from the Froch fight. Think he got 600k for the Allan Greene fight which is far too much for him to be getting paid cz he is so boring to watch. If you want to get paid more you have to sell tickets and PPVs which he just doesnt.
I wouldnt worry about how much any of the guys at the top are getting paid. More worried about journey men and prospects who get injured and have no alternative career prospects
Floyd made 46 million for the Ortifz fight my friend. He could hit 100 mil for the Alvarez fight. Montiel made a million for the first time in his career against Donaire. The separation is truly out of this world.Quote:

The amount of money in that super 4 or whatever it was called was a joke.Quote:

No he did not. I told you that before. Neither he nor Dornaire got a million. Why you keep saying they did?Quote:

It wasn't his first. He got 6 figures for going to Japan and fighting Hasegawa.Quote:

He made in one fight what I would say a lot of Mexicans wouldnt make in a live time. He cant have any complaints. Id say he made over a million easy in his careerQuote:

Well lets just thank god that they don't make what mma fighters did or they have to work 10 other jobs. Wald makes a shit ton of money think like between 10 and 20 mill because he gets all the cut. Boxers do well i say the top 100 do very well not sure about all fighters though its a big sport.
Im pretty sure Khan gets a shit load of money per fight
Khan had a $1.25M guarantee with HBO/Golden Boy + TV rights not long ago. Not sure how the loss affected the deal but you can bet he's still around the $1 million mark.
David Haye is one of the biggest earners outside of Floyd, Pac and Wlad. He's made fortunes through Brit PPV. With another reported £5million+ (roughly $8m) payday coming up for the Fury fight.
Matthysse and Garcia are both on seven figures, the exact amount wasn't reported. And yes this is Matthysse biggest purse by miles.Quote:

So yes his stock sure is going up.
How some of these fighters end up in financial problems is beyond me.
Easy work.Quote:

Lucas got 750,000 for Peterson but Peterson got 800,000 pretty good for someone who had just fought Holt on ESPN for 50,000. The numbers tha boxing voice are saying for Danny vs Lucas are so high I don't believe it till I see the official release.Quote:

Broner will clear 4 million this year
Bradley will make about 5 million
Danny Garcia should do over 3 million
Golden Boy to my knowledge isn't robbing fighters if you our getting over 100,000 for a fight you should have a nice life.
Considering the numbers were obtained from Nevada State Athletic Commission chairman, Keith Kizer, I'm pretty sure there accurate.Quote:

Seriously though, who gives a shit about how much another man makes if I aint gonna see a cent of it.
That is not the point of the thread, we are comparing fighters salaries to measure the popularity of the sport, over the last 10 years purses have been at an all-time low due to the casual fan having no interest in boxing.Quote:
