Earnings Stevenson+Kovalev since Adonis to Showtime?

[Ray-boom]

Just curious if anyone knows how much these guys have earned since Adonis has moved to showtime?

What kinda of purses has Adonis been earning since going to Showtime.

How could I track this info down ?

In his first fight on showtime vs fonfara he made more than what hbo wanted to pay kov and Adonis combined

I really doubt that. You gotta remember, Canadian top boxers make good money independent of the network license fee. Heck Lemieux just made 1m+ with hardly any network money. It's all about the gate + Canadian PPV, which have been paltry for Stevenson's cherrypicks since he left HBO

i believe stevenson gets ~$2m/fight. kovalev generally gets less, but against pascal he got $3.25m. he also fights more frequently, therefore gets paid more frequently. it's certain that stevenson would earn more right now against kovalev or pascal than he will against rodriguez, so right now he is not really where the money is at, but of course for stevenson it's not just about money, it's about being paid more for doing less

I'm talking about the money hbo puts up. He's getting the Canadian gate and Canadian ppv regardless of who he fights

"I am going to make more money fighting Fonfara than HBO was going to give me to fight Kovalev," said Stevenson during a Sunday telephone call to ******.com. "That makes no sense that I can make more money fighting Fonfara than I was going to make fighting Kovalev in a unification fight."

Although Stevenson would not discuss the amount of his purse for facing Fonfara, his promoter, Yvon Michel characterized the amount was a career-high payday for the Haitian-born, Canadian fighter, according to BoxingScene.com

I know Kov only got 750k vs his bum last weekend & I think Stevenson made a mill or more fighting his more known but older bum + lighter weight guy last time out. I'm thinking Kov probably made a nice amount vs Pascal though, but Stevenson hasn't really fought anyone on par with Pascal (imo anyway). Therefore I think you could get this result or that result, but it seems like vs comparable talent in opposing corners Stevenson is making out better.

uh, do you think more canadians are going to buy tickets and ppvs for stevenson-rodriguez or stevenson-kovalev? his sales have bombed since he switched to haymon

why did he leave the network that had all of the lucrative fights then? oh yeah, because he'd rather be paid $2m for a bum than $3m+ for a challenging fight

Who cares what they made before.

50/50 on the table to the highest network bidder

How is this bad for anyone?

He gets a small fraction of the money via Canada gate/ppv if he fights scrubs like Bika, Sukhotsky, even Fonfara.
