I think Lewis pisses this one though....

Plus he kept Harris's lunch money. A very shrewd move indeed.

I would be shocked if hatton had earned more than naz, naz was coing the money in and through most of the 90's was the best apid sportsman in the uk.

I still think its Lewis then Hatton. Naz could have made (say) 1-1.5 million a defence in his prime (great money for a feather) but I still don't see it adding up to all those WBU defences, Zoo, Mayweather and all the Lascano revenue.

Well as naz had earned over £40 million before the barrera fight i wouldn't agree.

Does it have a breakdown? I know Naz was popuar but 40 mil seems way high, esp for a featherweight..

Well Naz would have made a mint from Adidas and all his other sponsors, take away sponsorship and I reckon Hatton takes it.

They might have been including Naz's assets as well coz apparently he's invested very well.

rydersonthestorm · 05-20-2008, 07:21 PM

No breakdown but not including pbf and odlh naz was the highest earning lighter weight fighter by a mile.
Also the observer article is back in 2001 so i would be suprised if it included investments maybe sponsoship though.

The thing with Naz was that he made big money and invested if before the property price boom. For a million pounds you could get 10-15 (probably more up north) decent houses. So he had a lot of properties and their value increased 2-3 times. Nowadays with a million pound you could only get 5 decent houses.

I wish I was older so I could have had the chance to buy houses in them days

, I'd be a rich bastard by now

I still think Eubank earned loads. Between 1990 and 1995 he must have been raking it in. $9m dollars is £4.5 m, now. Eubank was supposed to be on £1m a fight back then. Didn't eubank have like 24 WBO title fights or something? Still Hatton, Lewis, Hamed, Eubank, Benn all made really good money and they deserve it.
