    David Haye purportedly made £7,000,000 GBP from his fight with Audrey Harrison ... Surely Froch will at least have equalled that?

    And deservedly so, too :good

    No way. Audley vs Haye did big business on ppv as a freakshow fight, Audley has the mainstream name don't forget. Froch vs Kessler was still a boxing fans fight even with Skys attention. I have heard many times over how Haye was supposed to have made 7 million vs Audley and 20 million vs Wlad but I have a hard time beleiving that's not just hyperbole, it doesn't seem a believable figure.

    Haye was Forbes highest UK paid athlete in 2011, from the 2 fights in the last 12 months vs the A-Farce and Wlad. I think the figure was £15 or £20 million. So it was certainly in that ballpark ...

    No I cant believe that 20,000 capacity tickets selling from £40, £80, 120, 220, 500, 1000 + PPV.. reckon he got at least 3 million.. Probably after fees and that would end up with 2 million..

    I'm sure i read it was a couple of million each. But when you factor in Tax (unless Froch is paid through a company) that £2m become £1.2m then add trainer fee say 10% thats £1m. Training and living expenses it soon reduces down

    Lets just say the two men who laid it all on the line got less then the shambles that tarnished the sport in Manchester that night. Sad really..

    x2

    Plus I doubt very much that audley pulled in more than 1million. Id wudnt be surprised if kessler got twice as much as froch.

    David Haye made 15-20 Million vs Wladimir Kiltschko.

    I think it was 15 Million, i can remember seeing the statistics.

    Wladimir Kiltschko made over 20 Million.

    Think I saw he had a guaranteed purse of $2M but could end up being more depending on PPV buys.
