Apparently hitting the lottery equals $500k more than fighting Broner.

Sad, just sad.

Apparently he doesn't know the first rule of haggling.

You don't know the full story of it. Shares from Argentina, PPV, etc.

People scoffed at Canelo's bottomline to as he is a much bigger star then most, and failed to realize he was getting a PPV %.

ppv doe...

Sigh.

I don't know what was Maidana's actual purse for Broner but Mayweather v Maidana is 1.5Mill with PPV upside. He is probably looking at $3-5 mill depending on how well the PPV does. He will at least make $3mill.

According to Ryan Burton

@brentbrookhouse @stevemaxboxing Floyd doesn***39;t usually give his opp ppv upside but chino is guaranteed 3.5mil. 1.5 is just on paper 4 taxes

OK, let me change that. Apparently hitting the jackpot = 2 mil more than fighting Broner or $1 mil and some change more than what Berto gets to fight bums on HBO.

Not a good look.

I am very happy for Maidana to be getting paid $3.5Million. He's a humble guy and a good fighter to watch. He deserves it.

Oh so he's lying about his taxes? I heard this story before...

I'd also love to hear the PPV upside since Floyd's guarantee is $32m and one would expect PPV upside himself. So if the fight sells 1 million PPV buys, how much upside is Maidana gonna see? $500,000?

What is your salary? Maidana is about to make more money in one day than a high percent of the world's population makes in their lifetime. I wish I could make $3.5million dollars in the next 20 years, let alone in 36 minutes.
