    Thought Shane would never get out of bed for less than $1million. Also that would be the gross pay, what they take home would be less after paying the staff and taxes. I get the feeling that Shane will be fighting for a long time like Holyfield and Jones.

    Wonder what Hopkins and Dawson got?

    Hopkins-Dawson split $1.8million for their first fight, significantly LESS for the rematch (according to both promoters and HBO).

    Only super sellers like Floyd, Oscar, Tyson, Hatton, etc.. earn mega dough every fight.

    Absolutely. I wouldn't be surprised to read that Cotto was actually the biggest seller in boxing behind Floyd and Manny right now You'd probably know better than I, the Klitschkos are making serious money on their own in Germany etc. but probably no more than a million or two in terms of the purse, who else is even in the discussion That's why I was kind of surprised to hear Alvarez was even making over a million, I guess he has fans though.
