    That Espinoza guy is gonna ruin Showtime if he keeps paying these kinda Purses:

    • Junior welterweight titlist Danny Garcia $1 million with challenger and former titlist Erik Morales getting $300,000.

    • Welterweight titlist Paulie Malignaggi $350,000 and challenger Pablo Cesar Cano $150,000.

    • Middleweight titlist Hassan N’Dam N’Jikam $400,000 and challenger “Kid Chocolate” Peter Quillin $150,000.

    • Welterweight titlist Randall Bailey $500,000 and challenger and former junior welterweight titlist Devon Alexander $600,000.

    • Middleweight Daniel Jacobs $15,000 and opponent Josh Luteran $11,000. (This is the main bout on Showtime Extreme.)

    • Also on the card: welterweight Dmitriy Salita ($10,000) vs. Brandon Hoskins ($10,000); former welterweight titlist Luis Collazo ($15,000) vs. Steve Upsher ($8,000); junior middleweight Eddie Gomez ($5,000) vs. Saul Benitez ($3,000); junior middleweight Boyd Melson ($2,000) vs. Jason Thompson ($2,500).

    That’s a grand total of $3,531,500 for the purses on the show, which has many other expenses as well.

    For the record the total purse for Ward/Dawson was 1,7 Million and both were the top Dogs at their Weightclasses

    And it is crazy that Paulie just gets 350k while being from Brooklyn, holding a belt and probably the most popular guy on the whole card #TK and Devon Alexander who cant sell a ticket to save his life gets 600k.

    I'm gonna go to either the box office or scalper the day of the event to maybe get a good deal. This won't sell out.

    I read somewhere that they sold 9k Tickets so far.

    The Barclays Center fits 17k people so there have to be plenty of tix available.

    Surprised N'Jikam is getting that much more than Quillin.

    15,000 for Danny Jacobs? Seems unfair but I'm sure he'll fight his way back into the big bucks eventually. Glad to see him back, hadn't heard much about his illness or anything.

    Paulie needs to get paid more and Devon is overpaid. The dude has done **** and his biggest fight was probably his worse performance - both technically and entertainment wise.

    I will probably attend since I will get a couple of free passes but might buy tickets for friends to support the fighters.

    Ayyyeee! Danny's making the big bucks! But seriously? Paulie and Quillin deserve more than that, considering they're natives of NY

    Hope they eventually, and actually, did a lot more than that.

    9K? That's quite shytty for all the hoopla they made for this "event".

    Place actually looked pretty full, but probably many were let in for free.
