Promoter Percentages!

[Bozbay]

I'm interested to know roughly the percentage of a promoters cut. I dont really have an idea, maybe someone here does?

It will help me work out how much extra money Mayweather makes from being his own promoter. Im just curious!

he doesn't make extra being his own promoter, he just doesn't lose that percentage that would be paid out to a promoter.

It's the same. On fight night, he will earn more money because his cut is higher. A higher cut is losing less and earning more.

your question is ******. He's the highest paid athlete in the world. everyone already knows this. So he's making a lot more than anyone else.

Me asking what the percentage cut is crazy? I know he's the highest paid athlete, who doesn't. Did you read my question? I am asking for the figure.

every fighter has a different figure. how ****** are you? pacquiao pays out 27% to bob arum, while timothy bradley only pays out like 10% with a high guarantee. not every fighter has the same contract

Of course. Which is why I said 'roughly'. Come on man, read what I said.

you do realize all purses posted are before any deductions right? different trainers, managers, advisors, promotors, taxes....you really don't know what every fighter brings home.

Yes, I am just asking for a rough idea of a promoters percentage.

some boxing promoters just pay their boxers a flat fee per fight and they keep everything else earned, like tv, gate, etc.
