    Didn't Hatton make $13Mill vs Pacquiao and $15Mill vs Mayweather? That's $28Mill in two fights and he probably earned about $5-$6Mill vs Malignaggi. UK PPV revenue and Gate revenue. I Thought Hatton was the richest Euro boxer right now.

      It's easy money for them to pound all these fat guys, wannabees, no hopers, and all talk no walk fools that inhabit HW right now. I think they are tough matchups in any era, but this is just too easy for them right now.

      What do you think they would make to fight each other?
      they could easily scam the consumer and create a jab jab fight for 12 rounds and then get Vitali or Wlad to "go down" and lose.

      the public is ****** and would buy it... i wudnt..

        They deserve the best!

        They are intelligent, decent men who are good role models for children and do a lot of charitable work. Staying in excellent shape all year round, when they fight, they dominate their opponents.

        And they don't spend their money foolishly.

          Agreed. That's why I made the other post about how much they can make. It would be boring, but casual fans would be all over that shi t. They they'd fall asleep.

            Did you read the article?????? The Klits make bet 7-10 m EUROS per fight. That's over 10M USD per fight, plus their promotional company and endorsements. Seriously, you should maybe think a little. Do you think the Klit's don't get German PPV or gate revenue? They sell out every fight in Germany.

              *** you're asking me if I read the article are you nuts?

              I read the article but I think you didn't read my post..It was a question. I wasn't claiming Hatton makes more money than them, I asked.

              Hatton sold over 1 million PPVs in the UK for the Floyd fight and he got 100% of that and he got a share of the US PPV rev. He got a share of the 850K US PPV sold with Pacquiao. Hatton has made about 40Mill in guaranteed $ starting from his Mayweather fight till Pacquiao so I thought he was the richest Euro boxer before I read this article.

              You should maybe think a little more.

                Hatton has made a lot of money off the back of the Mayweather and Pac fights but the K-bros will be more consistent with their income.

                Imagine if they fought each other. That's a Buster Douglas esque pay day right there.

                  The thing is, they are fighting on regular cable in Germany. The article isn't even counting the 7 figures they get from HBO and whatever the amount they get from an international feed.

                  When Oscar fought against Forbes on regular HBO, they gave him around 8-10 mil. That's De La Hoya, they're basically making more or less what he would.

                    When is the Klitschko's next HBO PPV? I thought Arreola vs Vitali would have been on PPV.Not even Haye vs Wlad was going to be on PPV. That's crazy, I would def pay for that fight.

                      This might be true they've been fighting for title for longer than Hatton I believe, but if Hatton had fought as many championship fights as them I'd have no doubt that he'd be the richest european boxer.
