How much was charles Martin paid to lay down and sit and not get back up?

Martin is a true boxing success story it just goes to show that ANYBODY under the right circumstances can make a whole lot of money in the sport of boxing

a friend said it was 5M, british sterling, which is annoying. i dont think its that much, how much was it? Lets just face it he wasn't able to cut the mustard, now go cry somewhere else

Martin knew that the only dude that would bring him a 7 figure payday would be Joshua. Sucks that he was just a champion poser but hopefully he takes care of them millions

Wrong thread...

Where is the evidence that he was paid to take a dive?

If he comes back within less than a year I would think it's because he loves the sport. If he really loves the sports he's going to want to redeem himself because that fight was embarrassing especially considering the fact that he came out in purple velvet robes. And king's crown. He was trying to come off as heavyweight royalty!

I think that was aldo who said that so it's definitely not true :lol1: That's what I thought but I didn't want to be calling anyone out on where they got their sources from. But I thought $8.5m was a bit over the top.

Good shout! What say you Steve plunger? Did Martin borrow some of your gear? I loaned it to him for a hefty amount Steve Plunger on the pull?. I've been rumbled brown nose.. Seems like I'm taking over the minds of the supporters of the furious one ...centre stage just like joshua

If it was 5 million quid and he takes home 2.5 million. Honestly, I doubt he fights again. What would be the point? He wasn't very good. Guy won the lottery!

Martin was not ready for the big time. He did not have enough experience. He is one of the worst managed heavyweights in recent history.

A poster on here claimed he was paid $8.5M not sure if that was true or not. I think that was aldo who said that so it's definitely not true :lol1:

Have you ever seen anything more ridiculous? :lol1: http://i.imgur.com/hukLxFd.jpg Steve Plunger on the pull?

50% as far as i know. *shrugs* I thought those naughty Tories lowered it for their rich friends.

Presumably, he only took home half the purse due to tax? I think the tax rate is 45%. 50% as far as i know.

$6million- Hearn said they couldn't get better fights on the undercard due to Martin getting paid so much. It was a 60-40 split in his favour. That seems like a more realistic payday. Not the $8.5M that was quoted last week by one poster here.
