Does anyone have an idea on the financial aspects of Top Rank's deal with ESPN. Are these fighters making PPV money for their ESPN fights? How much were they were making? Devin Haney Artur Beterview Lopez vs Loma fight Berlanga
Terence Crawford got $4 to $6 million for fighting tomatoe cans. And then he had the audacity to complain. Top Rank pays very well.
Probably poorly. Top Rank underpaid Floyd Mayweather and Oscar De La Hoya, but after they broke free and managed their own careers, they received huge paydays.
Correct and this will be the biggest reason if the fight with Spence doesn’t get made. If he made 5 million fighting Jose Benavidez I’m sure he’s expecting $12-15 million to fight Spence on PPV.. He and Spence both want premium money for this fight and it’s looking like Bob nor PBC wants t foot that bill.. Me personally I think the fight would sell between 500k to 750k PPV buys but maybe I’m overestimated how much diehards really want this fight..
Loma was guaranteed $3.25 million against Lopez. Haney had a guaranteed $2.8 million purse for Kambosos. Beterbiev was guaranteed $1.5 million against Browne. Lopez was guaranteed $1.5 million against Loma.
Now make a list of all the fighters who broke from their big time promoter and made less and regretted it? It would be a thread a 1,000 pages long.
