    so lets say his purse for chavez jr, joe calzaghe and jeff lacy was 300k each which i can only assume. then after taxes, and paying the trainer. you are not left with much, you can probably put down a down payment on a house. but this is not real money here?

    how much did you think he made in each fight?
    how many sales did the jeff lacy fight get? it probably sold for like 14.95?

    contender probably did buttfucall for his net worth.

    Former heavyweight contender David Tua is divorced from his wife and currently living out of his friend's gym, such is the way of the sport.

    Nah, he made really good money after he left the Contender. He's not an idiot, his investment simply didn't pay off.

    Net. There are the large sums of money that are taken from the purse due to taxes, then there are the various training/trainer expenses, and the transportation costs.

    If we plotted it out on a bell curve, statistically speaking, no fighter makes enough retire on. The ones that do, and can keep it, are true outliers. We're talking maybe-MAYBE- 1 out of every few hundred pros. It's not an easy sport to make a living in, by any stretch. There are champions out there who aren't set for life. That's why I don't blame the guys who chase the $$$.

    Funny how people seem to think because Pac and Floyd pocket millions that other boxers are making real money.

    Most boxers don't make ****.
