whats the most money a boxer has ever made in one fight?

DLH mde almost $50 million against Mayweather.

 

I think it was for Tyson v Holyfield 2..

unsure of the exact amount...

 

Those purses were 30 something million.

 

I thought it was Lewis/Tyson because they got shares of ppv and gates in addition to their base purses. I am almost positive that Lennox, who got the bigger share, got more than DLH's $50 million.

 

De la hoya for mayweather..thats a fact..Did Hoya earn more then mike career wise? i hear sometimes mike made netted over 500 mil.sometimes i hear 300 million.?

 

Yes, it was DLH against Mayweather.

 

yup

 

Lennox-Tyson was 50/50. They made more than DLH-Mayweather, because there was big PPV # in the UK. They made over $60millions each. Only in the USA they made $120millions.

 

charlie z is gonna make millions off the rematch

 

I don't know about those fgures. Between the U.S and U.K sales, Tyson vs. Lewis did about 2.8 million buys. The U.S figures alone for Mayweather vs. DLH were 2.4 million

 

john poore got a crumpled up $20 and a 6 pack of budweiser for fighting minto

 

They didnt make 60 million

 

Lewis and Tyson both got $17.5m as a flat fee plus a percentage of the profits from the PPV.

Now, while I reckon that pumped up their wallets quite a bit, I don't reckon it got as high as $50m...probably more like $30m, $35m at a stretch.

So I think DLH takes this one.

 

I believe Lewis got more than Tyson, I think it was 55/45 or 60/40 in Lewis' favor.
