UK Promoters /TV companies - Question about fighters purses

[fightscore]

Why do the UK promoters/TV companies never reveal how much they are paying their fighters??. Goldenboy and Showtime like many of the Amercian promoters and Tv companies again has made it public knowledge of what Sat nights fighter are getting.

I find it interesting how much boxers are getting paid as it gets you thinking how much our world champions right down to the show opener guys are making.

Has anyone got any links to other purse splits for full show etc etc

cheers

Pretty sure US promoters only started revealing fighter pay in response to the UFC who claimed MMA fighters were paid better. Figures like these prove that boxing paydays **** all over MMA pay day. MMA is pretty non-existent in the UK right now so there's no need to compare.

This is completely false

UK promoters are not obliged to give out purse details, nor are managers or the fighters themselves.

Quite frankly, if all parties are happy then the public have no business knowing.

I can't believe N'dam is making $400,000.
