    Just wondering what the purses are for this fight, as the record in Britain is currently £10m from the Froch-Groves 2 fight, surely this will beat it judging by Wlad's previous purses?
     
  2. Probably around 20 million again/

    Carl made more than £10m on his own.

    All I know is the ticket prices are a joke and they won't sell out the arena. 200 quid for nose bleed seats!

    True but I said purse, not including PPV & ticket sales.

    That's what I thought, should smash the current record then.

    Whatever it is - it's too much.

    How many punches were thrown in the first fight, about 2 per round wasn't it?

    The only thing that's more of a joke than the purses is the people that are prepared to pay to watch these 2 dancing with each other for 12 rounds.

    The purse the first time round was nowhere near £10m.

    Wlad got a reported 23 million dollar purse (£17m) & Fury 5.5 million dollars (£4m) so roughly £20m between them.

    Agreed, it made for poor watching.

    Those are figures taking into account TV etc. The purse without the addons was nowhere near £10m.

    I'd expect Wlad is keeping the German and much of the US TV money. Furys will be dependent on ticket sales and Boxnation subscriptions.

    They'll both be making more than 99.9% of us will make in our lifetimes, best of luck to them.
