Pro boxing money

why do people want to turn pro so early?

get a good amateur record first,win some national titles and the go further,if possible. with a decent amateur pedigree in the pocket, your value will increase automatically.

without it, you will be just a sparring partner for upcoming, promising talents.

in europe, one pays normally 50€ per round for beginners. after a few wins,it increases up to 100 or 150€. once you have ten or more wins, you can start charging 5000€ or more. but then, the promoters know you meantime and you can negotiate.

but again, thats really a tough road to go. meanwhile,you may have suffered a few KO losses and your health`s at risk.

i wouldnt do it that way, but its your pick... good luck

 

Win 1 pro fight and finish undefeated mmmk!

 

If that's true why did a guy I know get £500 for his second pro fight which he lost by KO?

 

If you mean europe as in not the Uk then I don't have a clue- if you mean UK as well ur speaking shite.

 

That's like...$900-$2,200 per fight :think...I'm thinking once I get out of school and have 20ish fights under my belt I should move over there to study for a Ph.D and have a few pro fights on the side to pay back my college debt! I'd gladly take a beating for that kind of money lol

 

This guy at our gym made US$600 in his last fight. Sucks when you think he trained for weeks just to get that much. It certainly isn't full-time work level pay.

I don't even know how you get your connections and networking started, unless you win at the Olympics or at the golden gloves, or some such tournament.
