    Good question is how much did Vitali make?

    Also that 500k for Briggs thats raw salary without money from TV networks. Probably his total payday was around 1 mil.

    Briggs was picked as the opponent mostly because his willing to take any offer from the Klits. Sonsoski was a mandatory and got mandatory money for it.

    Delahoya made $11 millions against Yori Boy Campos and his cut was only $100,000.
    Now someone tell me why Campos got the fight?

    Probably quite a bit over $10 million since their popularity is at an all time high these days. Vitali stood to make over $8 Million against Rahman(before his retirement) and that is not including private sponsorships and such.

    Nonsense.

    Tyson made $5.5 Million the night McBride was paid $175,000 to send him into retirement.

    Briggs is worth 500k... Valuev is worth 1mil, exactly what they offered and he turned down. I think it's all fair considering NO ONE brings anything to the table whatsoever spare for Haye or Adamek. Haye deserves the ass end of a 60-40 split while Adamek deserves, eh, 65-35.

    Since you're so wise and opinionated on this matter care to share with the rest of the world the accounting figures of both men and what they each bring to the table?

    I assume you have these since you made the statement?

    Taxes
    Promotor
    Manager
    Trainer
    Cutman
    Training fees


    $500,000 isn't $500,000 at the end of all those deductions.

    Still, I imagine he'd be able to buy a second hand Ferrari with what's left over.
