    With fight fans now reaching fever pitch all across the globe, and the potentially explosive weigh-in for tomorrow nights eagerly anticipated blockbuster and potential 'FOTY' candidate just moments away, the purses have now been released for all the main fighters on the card.


    Floyd "Money" Mayweather, a fighter who has dominated the sport for 17 years, and who is known for his brilliance and determination in and out of the ring continues his record breaking trend of fight night purses with an immense figure that eclipses the previous record, the $32 million he took home against the excellent Miguel Cotto. His opponent, a 6 time World Champion - Robert 'The Ghost' Guerrero also earns his highest payday yet with a staggering $3 million.


    Undercard fighters Ponce De Leon and Pound-4-Pound star Abner Mares both will make a respectable $375 000 each. Other fight purses for the night include $165 000 for Leo Santa Cruz, J'Leon Love at $100 000 and Gabe Rosado with $60 000. Former World Champion Alexander Munoz takes home $25 000.


    With the MGM completely packed out for the fighters arrivals only a couple days ago, and with the MGM Arena all but sold out, fight fans from around the world have been flooding in to the Las Vegas area anticipating what should be an excellent night of boxing - Where boxings showpiece star unbeaten Pound-4-Pound legend and future first ballot Hall of Famer Floyd 'Money' Mayweather will be laying it all on the line against his exceptional challenger, 6 time World Champion and current interim WBC Welterweight World Champion Robert 'The Ghost' Guerrero.


    Furthermore, in a potential 'FOTY' matchup between two excellent Mexican warriors, the current WBC Featherweight Champion Daniel Ponce De León will be taking on the exciting Pound-4-Pound star Abner Mares and current WBC Super Bantamweight World Champion, with both more than ready to leave it all in the ring.


    Also on the card, another undefeated Mexican gladiator, current IBF World Bantamweight Champion Leo Santa Cruz will be facing off against former World Champion Alexander Munoz.
    ​





    Weigh-in from 6.p.m ET

    I'm gonna guess his guarantee is 36 million. It's possible. Guerrero is NO Cotto in terms of guaranteeing a fight night purse.

    6PM Eastern weigh in? Damn, was hoping it was a little earlier.. Now I have to make sure I'm not terribly busy at work later than expected.

    Crazy Floyd is getting an even higher guarantee against Guerrero.

    Not really. He should be happy with 3m, he was only getting 2.5 a couple months ago.

    The power of negotiating :thumbsup

    Victor only got 2.5 and he is arguably the bigger train than Ghost

    Those were the guarantees, they get a cut of PPV money on top of that I believe. Ortiz was 26 million guarantee I believe.

    Think he made 40 for Ortiz and about 45 for Cotto.. :think
