Who Earns more Money from Boxing, Michael Buffer or Joe Cortez?

Trademark...
Michael Buffer

 

There was a thread made a couple of years ago about how much Buffer makes per fight. There was much speculation and arguing. People were claiming that it was hundreds of thousands. Anyway a guy who gave all his credentials and was actually involved in organising the money for Buffer posted that he makes about 5k for the major fights. As for the merchandising and his catchphrase etc he had no idea.

 

lol at the question
but anyway if he makes 8k to say that thats good money

 

Buffer, easily.

 

everyone is giving estimates of what Buffer earns from 5k to a million lol....does anyone have some idea of what Cortez would earn for a big fight?

 

Depends, do you want to win on points, by disqualification or knockout?

 

Like I said before...Joe Cortez definitely makes more money in one night for being the ref than Buffer does for saying his famous phrase. However, Buffer receives a shitload of money from retail sales such as video games where his voice is being used. He also makes quite a lot for his other appearances outside of boxing. He's made somewhere near $400,000,000 from his trademark alone (Buffer). The money he gets for saying "Let's get ready to rumble" before a fight is chump change. :deal

 

i've heard similiar. didn't he have his voice insured for 1 million dollars, alot like jlo's big butt? that he was making 20k i thought that was many years ago, i heard in big fights recently he was making closer to 50k.

 

how much does buffer gets per card? how about cortez? it also depends on the card..

 

I think its cortez, depends who the promoter of the fight. "Please let my one and only ricky hatton bearhug castillo all fight long and I'd give you $$$$$"

 

Buffer.

Cortez does own and operate a Boxing referee school that I think costs like 2k or 3k to enroll in.

 

Lets not be remiss in not mentioning more chicks as well !!!

 

your avatar.....her name wouldn't happen to be " Lolita " would it?

She is damn fine.....gives " Monstar's " avatar a run for his money.


Nallege needs to take note from you guys.....his chicks are damn ugly cross-genders.

 

Buffer is a celebrity in Germany. For many big fights there, they do a short interview with him, on his thoughts about the fight.
