Jo jo diaz got $50,000, he was fined $10,000, with 5k going to Rojas and 5k going to the commision. Rojas was given $60,000, with an extra $5k from Jo Jo. Not sure if the Wba should even count as a belt any more, they are worse than the Wbc.
Those are good purses, considering it was aired on Facebook. And the venue was quite small. 1500 capacity. Plus they only had 4 fights on the card. I doubt GP made any real money off of this show. But at least they made it happen, so credit to them.
I believe Jojo made $600,000 vs Gary Russel jr. So it is a lot less but, its on facebook and not showtime.
Before people complain about a $50,000 purse, keep in mind that that's more than the salary of 99% of the posters on this board. After paying out expenses for training camp and team members and taxes, Diaz will be able to take his family out to Five Guys and have enough left over to buy a Chromebook.
