Purses for Saturday: Donaire: $1 million, Arce: $800,000(plus Mexican TV)

Damn Arce was smart to pull out of the fight earlier this year, he forced Arum to throw more money at him.

I would appreciate some help, how do you start a thread? I haven't figured it out yet. Maybe i can't do it from my phone, anybody?

they don't. The purses are made by money from TV Networks, sponsors, the venue is actually paying for hosting the fight (it will attract a big audience who will spend money in the venue and surrounding areas)and the promoter is adding their money as well and the estimated money they are getting from a live gate and PPV(if thats the case) HBO is a TV network.

surprised Arce is getting that much gwap. perhaps cause he's a veteran of the sport. either way good for them both.

Can't believe HBO is actually putting up $1.8Million for this crappy ass fight. This fight is worth $500k at best. they don't.

Even more of a reason for Arce to retire after this ass whupping.

Can't believe HBO is actually putting up $1.8Million for this crappy ass fight. This fight is worth $500k at best. Yea am surprise too, I mean Arce is done but I know he still brings Mexican fans to the table, but still can't believe this fight was approved by HBO.

Seems like Arce is getting overpaid. I would assume most people tuning into the fight are watching Donaire and assume it's a landslide victory for him. Arce really isn't bringing in any viewers. I would of thought around the million mark for Donaire and about 300,000 for Arce. Honestly, this fight sucks. Donaire should beat this guy down in a few rounds. Arce is popular with the Mexican fans, a lot of Mexicans will tune in. Notice Donaire's ratings are mediocre when he fights a non-Mexican. What was his best one, 1.2million against Montiel? The rest were pretty mediocre.

Can't believe HBO is actually putting up $1.8Million for this crappy ass fight. This fight is worth $500k at best. They want ratings, Mexicans are going to watch in droves..and it's going to be a pretty entertaining fight for as long as it lasts.

I think this is a career high payday for Nonito

You have to remember 50 bought out Gamboa's contract for $1.2 million of his own money and has been paying for his expenses since then. That doesn´t sound good,if it´s true then it means Gamboa will be fighting for scraps for a very long time.

lol really? wtf fif lol Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android He probably got a much larger purse, but Arum and 50 get paid first before Gamboa.

Arce is getting such a huge purse I bet he quits after a few rounds of getting knocked around. billion on arce

That's a good split of the money. I like. Would like to see more boxers getting larger purses like this. I mean Gamboa fighting for $50,000? C'mon!!!! lol really? wtf fif lol Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

i wouldnt count arce out uve seen what memo the juice coach did with marquez look at arce hes never looked in that shape

Arce is getting such a huge purse I bet he quits after a few rounds of getting knocked around. Sad but true, in a way he wins even if when loses this

danngggg, surprised

Arce is getting $800K? Damn am shocked!

I'm surprised how much Arce is getting. Does anybody know how much he made for the Wilfredo Vazquez fight? It probably wasn't remotely close to that.
