How long does it take to make some good money in Boxing?

Until you win a title

 

Hopkins was starving even when he had a title. It wasan't until Trinidad that Hopkins could afford a pot to **** in.

 

How long can you keep your 0.

 

Some guys making titles don't make that much.

And some others make good money before they win a title.

It all depends on each fighter, but the great majority of fighters don't make much and have full-time jobs to support themselves.

 

Tyson made $200 for his first pro outing..

It all depends on how dedicated you are to conditioning and training and your overall skills as a fighter.

It takes some a couple of fights and some impressive victories to make some dough.

500-25,000 is good money for 45 min or less of work.

 

It also depends on your background and amateur pedigree ... if you're a decorated amateur then you stand to make more money than most off top - but if you're a regular guy ... then you don't stand to make much ... but i'm cool with making 200-1,500 for a 4 round fight !!

 

If you have a good manager who has built a local following for his fighters, you can make reasonably good money if you fight frequently (usually about 8-10 fights per year) - but you dont start earning 10k per fight until yo're top of the card - and that doesn't happen until there's some kind of title involved.
