Spence/Ugas Purses Lower Than Crawford/Porter. Why's That?

[JuniorTorres720]

I was curious to know how much Spence/Ugas made in their unification fight and supposedly Spence made a guarenteed $1.5 mil while Ugas made a guarenteed $1 mil. I then went to look at how much Crawford made against Porter and it says that he made upwards of $6 mil while Porter made about $4 mil. I think both fighters are exceptional but I also admit that Spence is a bigger name. So these numbers don't make sense. Anyone want to chime in on this?


Also, Spence/Ugas will be taking home a 50/50 split off PPVs. Anyone know how significant earnings can be?

taxes. spence is co-promoting the fight so his revnue goes to his llc and his llc pays him. 1 million is more than enough to give the IRS who takes 40-50% without an LLC.

Because Crawford made out like a bandit with his TR purse gaurantee. Not a coincidence Bud all of a sudden had an issue with them once his contract was up lol. Gotta remember though,according to PBC diehards,Spence probably be gettin that 20millie back alley check doe...

I think the Spence and ugas’ takes are before ppv revenue included while Crawford and Porter’s are including ppv.

Crawford's first $1 million came as far back as the Gamboa fight, I believe. He's been making an average of $2 - 4 million per 14 of his succeeding fights regardless of who he fought. Spence, otoh, was only making $200K at about the same time. His first $1 miilion ($900K) came from the UK in the Brook fight.

I got a feeling there is a lot of backend coming Spence's way, that was a big crowd.

That’s how much money they get up front. They do that for tax purposes. I’m sure they will get a significant amount on the back end.

Canelo laughs at those purses

Half full, not that great. Tyson Fury sold 90,000+ tickets for his fight at the weekend.
