    I am 80% sure it was $5m. Which is £2.5M

    I thought that it was £3.5million, after HBO took out their clause of having the fight at 1am, it added another 1 million to the purse, to be shared between the fighters I think

    but warren is notoriously tight lipped and there might have been bonuses with tv money/crowd money etc etc.
