I know the dude got totally screwed tonight, but I hope he at least made some bank to take care of his family. Anyone know what his purse was, plus the penalty that Chavez paid to him?
Don't know if Chavez paid any penalty too him. The fight was renegotiated early this week as far as I'm aware.
Hopefully Vera gets some good money because there is no way they will give him a rematch. I doubt any of the 160lb title holders will give him a chance.
275k after taxes and expenses would be maybe $125 and you're not buying a house in austin for that. San antonio yes, but not austin. Hopefully he got another 50k for the penalty.
He could buy a mansion in Brownsville. I feel bad for Vera, worse knowing that Jr. got 2.5 mill. Think about it. Guys that really fight like Garcia, Matthysse, Rios etc don't get that cash. It is nearly criminal..
It's who ya know in this sport. btw, why in the f-ck would Vera ever live in brownsville? He might as well live in mexico.
