His peak probably close to 10m a fight. Also I heard he invested it in big oil and has over 100m in his bank, he avoids taxes by claiming a comeback every year.
He was overrated, but I do miss that little ****
Considering the time and the fact that he made the big bucks in America, anything above 5 million a fight is ridiculous. If I'm to believe these numbers, and I don't doubt them, then he's one smart fighter.
However, the thought of a return means he left incredible wads of money on the table when he stepped away. Unfortunate, when you think of it that way.
he made some good money.
for the barrera fight , his purse was like $6-7 million.
barrera's was just under $2 million.
considering this was the lower weight class......and considering this was a decade ago......
that's some mega bucks right there.
