    Last I checked the FOTD was making $4 million himself. I don't think he could afford to pay $4 million. Besides who said they were offered that anyway? The same media that hates Haymon face?

    Fair pay for a fair days work. Both guys get the same amount it keeps down the diva **** and the fighters can focus on the fight. All that A side, B side, stuff is for PPV and that model is going the way of the dinosaur.

    WOW. Can someone PLEASE explain to me how Kovalev got the same amount as these guys whilst headlining a ppv??

    Even Crawford got less than these guys on a PPV, what gives?

    GGG sold out MSG vs Lemuiex and made the same as these guys.

    What is Haymon doing that HBO arent ( apart from ppv)

    Geez. 2 million for a very tough fight. By way of example, Thurman was paid 1.5 million to fight Guerrero just 2 years ago! This shows you how inflated the purses were back in 2015. If Thurman got 1 million for the Guerrero fight, this 2 million purse would seem more in line. Thurman was a 6-1 favorite over Guerrero while he's just over 2-1 vs Garcia.

    But hey, those are the economics.

    It's low when you consider the consequences. The loser will lose their 0 and their title. Let's see what the gate numbers are and the ratings.

    This is why I know these ****ers want no part of Brook.

    They would get paid more coming here to fight Kell Brook.

    Garcia and Broner both confirmed the figure. They're both high profile, so Pac would have made more with them than with Jessie.

    Both david haye and bellew are getting c.£2.5m each, that's £ not $, for what is a joke mismatch fight. Shows what level the UK scene is at at the moment
