It's not surprising. The only fighters who can make money at heavyweight are wlad and to a lesser extent Haye

LOL, theirs a reason ESPN was able to secure this... Can't believe Showtime wouldn't have made a push with Arreola being a GBP/Haymon guy.

Wilder is with both.

And Chisora-Fury II will be a lucrative fight.

Thanks I was waiting to see what the purses were, but now seeing as how poor they were, dang. I was really surprised this was on espn and not showtime seeing as how Haymon was involved but glad it was on free tv

Youve got to be ****ing kidding me...
I guess I didn't even think about the fact that it was on ESPN and what it would mean for the purses. HBO was on Arreolas jock for so long, I just assumed he pocketed a million bucks last night.
Damn.
Damn damn damn, man.

I think Lepai made as much as Brock Lesnar(minus the endorsement deals, etc) made per fight in the UFC, or close to it...and Lesnar was the highest paid fighter along with Silva.
Laugh at boxing purses all you want, but they are not getting underpaid like White does to his UFC fighters.
