    Cotto got over 2 million.
    Ali got 700,000

    Jesse Vargas was crazy to turn down this fight. I understand Spence turning it down because he is very talented, even Mikey Garcia is only a 135,140lb fighter. Jesse Vargas now has to fight in Lancaster, Ca on some crappy card. Ali is now in line to get some big checks.

    Ali should go fight Brook if he wants a 7 figure payday.

    Vargas already got around $3 million in his PAC fight and 600K for Bradley. The Cotto fight wasn't worth being strong armed into a Golden Boy contract.
