Are GBP fighters underpaid or are TR fighters overpaid?

[PACnPBFsuck]

Tell me how you feel about this, personally I believe GBP fighters are underpaid, but that's me.

I think they all make more then me and most on here for one fight then most make in a year or 2..so hey

[NEETzsche]

i think the inflated purses boxers receive are the reason they often don't feel compelled to face the best opposition available to them

Pretty much all athletes make more than the common folk, but gauging them by their profession and company they work for, it seems like TR make more on average.

Andre Ward got paid $2million to fight Edwin Rodriguez (Rodriguez got $1million I think)

Stevenson got like $1million to fight Fonfara (I think)


Danny Garcia is probably getting 500,000+ to fight a plumber



There's a trend here

Top Rank doesn't seem to have many fighters so maybe they can afford to pay them more, especially since the undercards are so bad they do not have to spend much money on them...but that is just a thought

You'd have to put that on Haymon, he's the one negotiating their deals.

The bigger names are all well paid on both sides of the fence, it's just the huge gap between those and the less well known names taking home 80-100k.

Ward is not with Goldenboy or Top Rank

Is it a bad thing Haymon makes sure fighters get paid well?
