    HBO usually release figures don't they? Magomed abdusalamov only got 40,000 dollars for his fight with perez :shock:

    "There will be no purse bid because we have reached an agreement with the Bellew camp," Michel told ***********.

    Figures get released in certain states - depends on the state commission rules. If they're not forced to, they won't usually make it common knowledge.

    Too much of 'what i will do', not enough of the actual doing it.

    Not much for a world title shot is it? He probably made more vs clev.

    Tough sport.

    He would probably have made at least 10 times that in his next fight if he had won

    he said hearn offered over a mil (not sure if GBP or USD) to stevenson to come to liverpool, reckon bellew would have made more if it was in his back yard than go out to canada

    i'd be thinking if he won it would be more like 200,000 for his next fight...maybe more....but not as much as nearly 700,000..not for his next fight
