    Something is wrong here when guys like Berto makes more money than a legend like Bernard Hopkins who only got 750k for his fight.

      Hopkins was coming off a loss and Cloud isn't really known. But I agree.

      The biggest thing that stands out is Chad Dawson vs Ward. Dumb on so many levels! Dawson drops down a weight class, takes half the money Ward gets and for what? Chad "Bad decision" Dawson.

            To be honest it doesn't matter if Hopkins loss to Dawson didn't Berto come off a loss or two?, he is still a bigger name than Berto who gets paid over a million with only 5 fans who happen to be his family in attendance, Hopkins fighting for 750k is sad for a guy of B hops level. Hopkins really wasn't lying when he said he isn't fighting for money. I thought he was getting at least 2-3 million a fight.

            Dawson is a head scratcher he makes horrible decisions and points fingers, very immature irresponsible person.

              B-Hop has ownership of the company so i think he's doing fine money wise plus it's about who you fight also. Thats why Floyds gurantee is bigger for Canelo than for Guerrero.

                B Hop should finish his career with Al Haymon. Al will get him what he deserves plus some.

                  Mayweather and Klitschko are making serious $$$, goddayum. Bradley made big money and Ruslan made him earn every dollar. Nice to see LM and LP get respectable pay-days. Berto getting 7-figure salaries while Josesito makes 200k and Mares makes 375k

                    Purses are dictated MORE by what the network offers the promoter for the rights to show the fight vs. the person's name.

                    Hopkins "may" be a bigger name but Hopkins is not a huge draw if he's not matched with the right opponent. Don't believe me? Look at the how poorly Hopkins vs Dawson I in L A drew. They had the audacity to put that on PPV.

                    Lastly, don't you all think Al Haymon has had PLENTY opportunities to sign Hopkins if he wanted Hopkins?
