This fight is easily worth 10 million dollars.
Basic Purse: 3 mill give or take
Live Gate: 50K tickets * $75 avg = 3.75 Mill
Combined TV revenue: 4 Mill Minimum
Advertising Revenue: 1 Mill Minimum
That's 11.75 Mill to be split 2 ways and that is a very conservative estimate.
So Haye is saying "I don't want to fight for 5.9 Million Dollars, I want an extra 500K based on an offer that doesn't exist"
This is cowardice at it's very lowest and most de****able level.
