Zou Shiming $500K for 3rd Pro fight? Is this a record?

[JohnSmithJr]

Like the title says,

Zou Shiming in only his 3rd fight is making $500,000. I'm just wondering if this is some kind of new record?

Does anyone know what other fighters get paid for their 3rd professional bout?

[FrenchDeLaHoya]

def probably the record as of right now
but lets see what lomanchenko gets in his 3rd bout

[Hougigo]

Dude got 300k in his debut... so this is hardly surprising

[DoktorSleepless]

He also made $500k in his second fight.

[JohnSmithJr]

So basically, Shiming will have amassed 1.3 million dollars before his 4th pro fight?

That's pretty damn impressive

Lomachenko is receiving more as an earlier poster mentioned.

I see no concern with Shiming's purse, he will draw the Chinese market towards the fight all for a fee of 500K.

take home prolly around $1300 after arum fees.

[ShamrockXpress]

The interest he brings from china makes 500k peanuts to the money Arum will be making. He will probably pull in more PPV money than any fighter in America would not named mayweather, pacqiaou or cotto.

take home prolly around $1300 after arum fees.

You exaggerate. I have heard Arum say he takes 27% and claimed that is the industry standard promoter's fee.

Do you know what percentage Floyd Mayweather takes from the fighters in his stable as he too is a boxing promoter?

I think Amir Khan got a million a fight for his first fights on ITV but i could be wrong. 1 million sterling
