Looking for information on how much Yamanaka would get for a world title fight in Japan, from what I see he has a big following and is regarded as the best in the division so curious about what he makes?
About 5-figures in terms of USD. He has solid sponsorship with Nike and stuff to supplement his income. Decent money but not huge. A Japanese guy on twitter said Uchiyama gets around $200,000
That is terrible and after his recent outing against Moreno, i'd love to see him vs Jamie McDonnell for 118 supremacy. Would be a top drawer fight. Think Jamie beats all the other current champions a Haskins (although would be close early on due to Playboy's awkward style), Payano and the Thai dude, Singyu (which belt Mac should have actually have but thats a separate point for another day). Yamanaka should go to the States and a real sizeable purse.
