That's insane to think about it But if you add up how much every british boxer has been paid in the last 5 years and add it up, Conor will most likely make more than this total in one fight against Floyd Some loud mouthed MMA guy
And that's why its bad very bad for our sport Boxing is and rightly so being laughed at and a called a Mockery I'm not interested and ain't buying this circus parade
Why do you limit to last 5 years and only British boxers. He gon make more than every single boxing legend in the history of the sport except handful.
Fake news, doubt it's even true if you go back 12 months. Plenty of British boxer make big coin and Conor won't get more than US $100mill, pretty sure AJ made US$20mill (£15mill) for 1 fight against wlad, Brook apparently made 2xus $5 against GGG and Spence When Floyd fought Pacman he made more than the entire sport of MMA that year!!!!
Coner/Mayweather fight is not being taken seriously, it is nothing but WWE wrestling kind of fight, it is fixed, a joke................
That's absolute rubbish - I don't know where you've sourced that info from but it's just not true. McGregor's estimated purse assuming the PPV figures are astronomical as predicted is $75 million (£59 million) Approximate correlated purses for a selection of the top UK fighters the last 5 years Carl Froch - £20 million AJ - £20 million (his are only going to get bigger) David HAYE - £10 million (the Chisora fight was less than 5 years ago!) George Groves - £10 million Kell Brook - £10 million I'll stop there because it's already been beat by just 5 fighters! The big stars who could have been on that list - Fury, Frampton, Bellew, Degale, Eubank jr.... it's just not even logical to think it's close to being true! all the undercard fighters, the small halls, the PPV stars, the fighters fighting abroad. Stupid Post.
George Groves has had 15 fights in the last 5 years: Francisco Sierra, Glen Johnson, Balmaceda, Barakat, Alcoba, Froch (WT), Froch (WT), Rebrasse, Douglin, Jack (WT), Di Luisa, Brophy, Murray, Gutknecht, Chudinov (WT). a sample of his approximate purses according to articles online; Froch 1 - £1.5 million Froch 2 - £3.5 million Jack - £600,000 Murray - £800,000 Chudinov - £700,000 That's 5 and he's made just over £7 million... so i'd be suprised if he'd not made £3 million from the 10 other fights he's had... baring in mind 2 others were PPV and he headlined others. Hardly "no where near" is it...
Still think your pulling these figures out your arse, a quick google search of really basic sources finds the Froch 2 purse at £1.5-£2m and the Badou Jack fight at $500k which is just under £400k So baring in mind I can't be arsed search through each fight, we're already apparently £1.5m down on your £3.5m figure for Froch 2 and £200k down on the Badou Jack fight.... Froch 2 - £1.5 - £2m http://www.getwestlondon.co.uk/sport/other-sport/boxing/groves-reveals-truth-behind-2million-7194325 http://www.tsmplug.com/boxing/froch-vs-groves-purse/ http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/ot...-and-George-Groves-2m-from-Wembley-fight.html Badou Jack - $500,000 https://www.mmamania.com/2015/9/11/...vealed-money-guaranteed-32-million-boxing-ppv
The whole thing is a joke. I won't be paying to watch it. The build up will be great viewing. The fight simply won't
