Comments Thread For: Canelo Making 1.25 Million, Angulo Will Receive 750K

Im ordering Canelo vs Angulo because the undercard and main fight are going to be intense, if Molina is out.

Also Martinez vs Cotto because why not.

I will pass on Pac vs Bradley zzzzzzzzzz.

Dude...You have to see Pac Vs Bradley, it effects both fighters career.

Pacquiao could take a additional loss, which might just put into effect that he no longer has it.

Bradley could take his first OFFICIAL lost "hint hint" these are things you don't want to miss.

Go dig up the threads when the Floyd-Canelo numbers came out. Plenty here called Ginger the A-side.

As for the part Ginger played in the success. He played a big part. He played a huge part. But his fanbase isn't any bigger than a guy like Cotto's. The difference in the two shows with Floyd is that Canelo was sellable as a legitimate threat because of his record. While Cotto was seen as damaged goods. And they pumped a helluva lot more into promoting the Ginger fight.

As for 400k being a "huge" success. Like I said previously, I put Ginger on the same level as Cotto as far as a draw. Cotto can do 400k. I'd say 500k would be a "huge" success. I expect around 350k. Its also gonna be in the theaters. So I'm not sure how that affects the numbers either. 400k would be a solid number.

You set the bar pretty high then. Personally I'm expecting around 250,000 PPV buys. I think Canelo vs. Angulo is similar to Cotto vs. Mayorga, which did 250,000 PPV buys. Mayorga was more known than Angulo is though.

the fighters aren't getting paid much, if the PPV doesnt sell no biggie i guess because all these guys added together probably equal about 1/4 there biggest guy makes alone in one fight

[nycsmooth]

after fees, taxes, expenses both lucky 2 get 1/3 of the amount & alvarez has buku legal expenses...

Being hyped and getting paid are two different things. You think Barrera was making millions after being the next Chavez but then got KO'd by Junior Jones?

Jr. Jones never KO'd Barrera.

[bigsmoothh]

im happy angulo and canelo are both getting paid good money. these are real fighters who deserve every cent.

[Holywarrior]

Jr. Jones never KO'd Barrera.

Yeah ok

This is just further proof that GBP and SHO are broke

Hearn was offering Khan $5 mill to fight Kell Brook ffs

Canelo's guarantee is the absolute minimum that he will make.
In addition to the minimum he is also on an 80/20 split of the profits that will be made from this event. He is getting 80% and GBP will get 20%

That is a pretty damn good split and you know he's going to make a lot more that 1.25 million.

That's how combat sports should be split. UFC takes 80% of the revenue from the fighters!

There is no mention of PPV and gate percentages. He might have taken the smaller guarantee and bank on the popularity
