    Gary russell jr got $1.4 million plus gate percentage.

    Jo jo Diaz got $600,000

    These are some great purses, Oscar taking care of Jojo, Haymon taking care of Gary.

    Showtime is where it is at. HBO only gave Ggg 1 million which is alot but he is a lot bigger name than Gary.

    that cant be true. Where is he getting the budget for this? There were few in attendance. That is more hen Mikey Garcia and Garcia has a sizable fan base unlike these guys

    Expect Russel to be put on the bench for a year and a half after a payday like that.
