Do amatuer boxers actually get paid?

high level amateurs i.e olympians receive a stipend

basically its supposed to be for their food, travels etc but they receives way wayy more than they need.

 

The Irish amateurs who box for the country get paid some get 80,000 Euro a year along with sponsership .

Katie Taylor is one of the best paid sports women in Ireland as she gets paid by Irish sports council, sponsord by businessmen Dennis O'Brien, she done a Lucozade ad and is on a grant from Skysports.

 

for sure.

america's raushee ****** earns $100k a year.

 

No, he's Cuban, they don't make ****.

I think it was about Gamboa i read, when he won an Olympic medal, they allowed him to have a telephone in his house.

 

He did when he let Khan beat him.

 

British Amatuers get a 'living allowance'

 

isn't he the guy who's just chilling in the amateurs even though he can go beat some AZZ in the pros?

 

Well hes in a communist country.

He basically gets looked after by the government.

Considering its Cuba, he probably gets a delapidated house and a 1965 Skoda.

"In the red corner" is a good book on amateur boxing in Cuba.

 

i think he's waiting for the next olympics.

he's getting 100k a year i wouldn't mind taking punches on a headgear for that much :yep

 

You also get paid for winning euros and aba's but its not alot at all.
