    One thing is for certain, if you are fighting Oscar, it's your biggest payday in your career.

    Its not PPV so not as much. Most likely DLH makes 2-5 mill and Forbes 500k-800k.

    When is the last time oscar made less than 8 figures?

    True it isnt a PPV but surely its more than that.

    Tickets don't mean ****. Otherwise every fight would be in Europe where people actually show up.

    Also what DLH gets as a purse, and what he gets from the profits that go to GBP makes a difference.

    Oscar is going to win a lot, remember he is the promoter and the fighter at the same time.

    DLH is still going to make 8m ... its going to be in a highly capacitated soccer stadium ... the gate will be huge ...

    Forbes probably cracks a million ...

    Because he's the promoter doesn't mean he's going to make a ton more ... it just means he takes the responsibility of banking the fight ... I'm pretty sure that Forbes will get some incentives ...

    Amazing how many will pay to watch this sparring exhibition. Doesn't everyone know that Forbes is on the payroll at GBP as a sparring partner for Oscar and has been for quite some time. They spar every week when Oscars in training.
    Oscar will make 8 figures. Forbes will probably get a $50.00 a week raise.
    Oscars so generous you know. A wonderful guy.

    :yep :yep But if Forbes was sparring partner for Oscar more than once then this is bigger hype job than I thought.
    I have a feeling we'll see Forbes pulling off some PBF tricks in the ring and Oscar showing his "amazing" skills to overcome those tricks just to hype his future fight with PBF.:tired
