    Wow, that's sad if true.

    Meanwhile, Canelo will get $50m for fighting John Ryder in May.

    Hopefully he raised his profile. In Britian he'll make more money than in America. DAZN might give him a good pay day if he fights Callum Smith and then Bivol.

    Top Rank were NOWHERE in this promotion. Queensberry did all the leg work for this.

    Yarde earns millions in sponsorship from the likes of Adidas , so give me a break.. & 350k for half an hours work isn't bad lol.. that's a house... & let's not forget he lost twice already too.. so I'm not going to cry about him getting 350000 it's not like hes elite is it.. go look up how much Kovalev got paid when he was coming up the ranks early on before bleating on about this pampered so & so

    That's not right either he is disgustingly grossly overpaid but that's just boxing the discrepancies are ridiculous

    Hopefully Beterbiev can fight Callum Smith at Anfield, it will be a full house and he can get paid some good money.

    Agree.

    Canelo is on the decline now and IMO he is a loss leader for any network. His fanbase won't bring in enough revenue on PPV or ticket sales to cover the cost of his salary anymore.

    Edit: if he is on DAZN then it's already maxed out via subscriptions anyway. Better to build someone new up personally

    I'd like to see Sky Sports Box Office promote Beterbiev too. In London or Manchester he has a very good fanbase which would only grow after last night.

    Bob Arum is better for boxing from a fans perspective. He makes big fights happen more than other promoter. But he is terrible from a fighters perspective. He protects his fighters less. He puts you with stiffer competition. He pays you less. And when you are on your way out, throws you in the trash and feeds you to a young lion

    Yeah i noticed that but Bob definitely made sure to make it to the arena & sit in the front row with his wife Fury & his partner by his side.

    A house at 350k, where must this be & are we going back to the early 2000's?

    Yeah you could say he is the Khabib of Boxing expect he mauls you with pressure & power, bad promoting is just that.
