Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Maidana Showtime PPV Purse Figures

[bojangles1987]

And then when it's time to fight a top fighter, Haymon guys want millions of dollars cuz they're use to getting almost a million to fight sparring partners. Smh

Probably why none of his guys fight very often. Their purses are too high. Especially if Showtime is the only network paying them.

Santa Cruz is making as much as Rigo did to fight Donaire. WTF.

This is a terrible undercard. I'm watching the fight at the movie theatre and pyaing the PPV price pretty much, but this fight will not get anywhere near 1 million PPV buys. This fight will sell like Pac v. Bradley 2.

The fights and the salaries don't add up. No wonder HBO wants nothing to do with Haymon.

Floyd "suckered" Showtime into a ridiculous contract. I'm not sure if Showtime went into it looking to make money. I think they went into it wanting to shed the little brother role they've had for awhile now. And if that's the case, its been a success.

This is exactly the way its suppose to be. This is a deadly sport with long term health problem when i fighters career is over. So all you cry babies please shut the phuck up

Just came by to remind us boxing fans how irrelevant "purses" are. Have a nice day.

Nooooo **** to both of you guys. 750k is crazy money for someone that hasn't stepped up in competition even a little bit
