    From Dan Rafael via twitter

    Ward $1,367,500; Dawson $600K; DeMarco $180K; Molina $85K

    Pretty weak IMO. Must suck for dawson having to come to Ward's weight and to make less than half.

    Purses are fine. Dawson is not a draw. Dawson wanted the fight and it is for Ward's championships.

    Not everyone can make 20 million + a fight ala Floyd.

    That's chump change. Is this a UFC fight or something? Is Dana White promoting it and convincing these guys proving they're tough is more important than stacking papers?

    I think I'll be rooting for Dawson. I feel like if he doesn't win this fight he'll never get into the spotlight and eventually be forgotten.

    I'd take it too but technically it isn't just 36 minutes. You also have to factor in a long, grueling training camp.
