    I thought Golovkin made a **** load for the Canelo bouts?

    He did.

    Probably around 40-55 million in total from both fights.

    GGG was making 1 to 2 millions per fight with HBO, somewhere around 3 with Jacobs and maybe Lemieux, and made a shitload of money with the 2 Canelo fights.

    Degale never made near that much money you can bet on it. Hell, I'm sure Bute was making more money against Degale than Degale did !

    If that's true then he has done very well for himself tbh.

    I don’t see any source for the Pugmire quote either. This is not the best journalism here.

    Rule no. 1 of journalism: “If your mother says she loves you, check it out.”

    He already cashed in twice when he sold all his belts to Canelo. He probably made more in those two fights than Sergio Martinez did over an entire career.
    What he needs to do now his cement his legacy by beating some top level talent. Smith at 168 would be a good start. Or maybe ZeldaRamirez
    . Beating big Charlo would make a statement so there's that option as well.

    Well reports suggest he didnt earn half what people think he did. Tom is a rip off merchant apparently. F legacy, he has had a good career and has already earned his stripes. Live it to the young lions now. Earn and get out with his health intact. F legacy.

    Stating the obvious a bit..He made much more than Martinez ever did in his career with just the rematch with Canelo

    Don't think he'll join the PBC, because Haymon would keep him too'busy'.
    DAZN with maybe fast Eddie

    Highly possible, but remember that we normally only hear about fighter's purses and not the % cut they take from such things. Also, they have sponsors and I'm sure it's quite lucrative.

    Hell, GSP was one of the highest paid UFC athlete at the time and he was making more from sponsors from what I heard.

    Rubbish, to hell with legacy now though I say. Earn as much money as possible in your twighlight years. Move up to LHW and fight Ward, come to think of it that might not be such a great sell anyway.
