What boxer has earned the most money (purely from Boxing) without ever holding a world title?

No

 

Audley got massively overpaid, but still not even near McConnor's earnings for that WWE fight

 

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr :-D

 

Boh... Just a paper. The WBC gave Sergio Martinez the WBC Diamond Champion of the Universe Belt and gave this Interim belt to JCCjr. No a real World Champion

 

paper or not, (and we all know he wasn't the legit champ), he was recognized as a "titlist'.
So he wouldn't be considered.

I would think one of the Eastern Euro guys that were big contenders would probably be the highest paid guys to never have had a title. Or David Tua. The number of matches against champs and eliminators would have to have him up there.

Pretty interesting question.

 

its not going to be him but someone like emanuel augustus a rock solid journeyman who had about 80 fights with a 50 /50 record but fought a whos who resume of talent / deserves big big money from what is a dangerous sport

peter buckley british journeyman bantamweight to welterweight did the same fought every british prospect nown to man on no notice and did it for 300 fights lost 5 of the fights by rsf and i know one of them gainst a prime hamed in 5 rounds was bull**** / buckley looked and was built like your local paperboy but had the balls and chin of holyfield.

 

Macklins minted, never won a title but should have against Sturm. GGG fight and Martinez were big dough, paddys day in America for one of them fights that went over the million pound mark for him.

 

Dereck Chisora has earned more than 10 million dollars. I can't think of anyone who's made more money who never got a title. It would have to be him or maybe somebody that mixed it up with the top popular heavyweights multiple times, someone who fought moneymakers like Ali or Tyson. I don't believe Andrew Golota held a title despite fighting Tyson, Lewis, and Bowe twice. Oh, and there are some German's like Arthur Abraham or Maskaev who made big money in Germany. I'll check my record purses per division thread later.

 

derick chisora is a good shout
never new he earnt that much

 

McGregor takes the cake.

I'll throw another name in thehat though. Micky Ward. Earned a few million probably.

 

Conor or Cooney

 

Makes sense,

 

Was'nt he a long time champ on and off though
