Devon Alexander made $500,000 for tonights fight.

I know most of you get pissed when people start boasting about how much money a fighter makes for a fight but a kid from the hood in St. Louis did not get into the street life worked his ass off and got himself a nice payday. I am happy he got himself a good few dollars because unlike his brother he stayed dedicated and did not stray away from boxing.

ye u can tell devon is a humble hard working kid, u gotta respect that....

[sicko]

good for him! that amount will go higher and higher, didn't look his best against Kotelnik but he still has a great future

[Mikhnienko]

and Kotelnik who has essentially been homeless since 12 years old gets robbed and probably real ****ty pay too.

I didn't understand the HBO profile on Devon. Are people supposed to care that his brother who is a pro fighter and on his way to being successful is a ***ing idiot and weak minded dumbass?

[futureofboxing]

wow he made more than any mma/UFC guys elite make for any fight.

Typical Russian/Ukrainian scorn.

I understand the sentiment, but i bet y'all ain't saying the same **** bout a kid from a 3rd world country that makes it.

I guess he should hit 6 figures if him and Bradley fight...

how much of that 500,000$ goes away after taxes, trainer expenses and so forth? I'm just curious to know how much a fighter actually get's in his own pocket.

Yeah well that is a different story im sure his trainer and don king are going to get their paws all over that and than uncle sam is going to demand his 33% and devon will walk away with 325,000-350,000 I think.
