Maidana earned more than $5.7 million for the Mayweather fight

This shows that Al Haymon loves his fighters and treats them as if they were his own children. He got Maidana nearly $6M for the first fight and now Maidana will earn even more in the rematch. I expect Maidana to earn nearly $15M in 2014 alone. Al Haymon is a great adviser and Maidana deserves such great service.

You cannot say that. According to these guys, Maidana only got an outrageously low $1.5 million purse. Maidana usually gets $5 million per fight on average.

now this may be because im high as hell, but looking back on past fights, this thing we call boxing is all jumbled for me. What if Roy Jones got paid to no blocking so he tried to dodge every hit? What if pacquiao was paid to not do combos exceeding 3 punches during first 1:30 of each round? What if ali was paid not to finish foreman until near the end of the fight? These sound pretty ****** but why cant it be possible? Boxing is choreographed.

You've smoked yourself ******ed.

On topic - Looking forward to the rematch and I'm happy to hear that Floyd's lack of balls ended up doubling Maidana's purse.

chino is not at floyd's level to demand things, i don't understand why people keep saying "if you took the money don't complain". if he didn't agree to wear those gloves he could have ended up with nothing, why risking it? chino isn't making 30 million per fight like floyd

[solo20]

it looks bad for Floyd to pay 1.5 mil for madina to change gloves. That is puoosy crap
THIS SHOULD END ALL THE BULL THAT GLOVES DONT MATTER BUT THEY DO MATTER IN THIS CASE 1.5 MILL

[UTEP]

He should see how much Floyd will pay for a KO victory while he's just throwing money away

Mayweather doubled his purse to change the gloves?

lol that's $1.5m worth of pure fear and paranoia, and he still had a lot of trouble with Maidana, pillows and all.

1.5M for Marcos wear pillows...Jesus. Can anyone imagine this guy fighting prime Manny?

Floyd bribing maidana to fight in sparring gloves lol. Gloves dont matter tho. Well to lil floyd they mattered. 1.5 milly worth lmao.

How scared do you have to be?

That's just pathetic. How do u give a guy a million dollars to fight you with bigger gloves???

Floyd wouldve ended up with nothing as well.

No fight = no money.

Floyd was in the wrong for b*tching about gloves that the commission approved. Maidana was right for wanting to wear them.

Mobb Deep should rename this song to "Floyd Mayweather"

If Maidana took 1.5 million I don't want to hear about a glove excuse. It seemed he cared more about money than winning the fight if that happened. I've said many of times he should have stuck with guns and said he was wearing the Red MX Everlast that was approved. They wasn't going to cancel the fight regardless of the banter of what Team Mayweather was saying.

And lose out on 1.5 million? No thanks.
