Canelo-Khan purses.

[Box-Office]

I was curious how much the purses are because the same ppl crying Khan isn't fighting punchers now saying this is a cash grab. $ is obviously part of it, but not all of it. It is after all prize and not pride fighting (no pun intended).


Khan makes around $10 million or so vs Brook, which is a more winnable fight comparing it to Canelo and the circumstances around the weight.

Thought Khan was going to earn some money from the UK PPV?

[Eff Pandas]

I don't buy whatever this bs site is that came up with those numbers. Whats their source?

Obviously doe Canelo is getting paid every fight now & Khan is gonna get paid nicely for this fight. And like the other guy mentioned I've heard it suggested Khan will be getting some of the UK PPV money. The reality is this is a business and people don't tend to throw out all the details of their business immediately out in the public so I doubt anyone knows all the details except the relevant parties.

I don't think anyone is criticising Khan for this fight, just Canelo and his team. I'm still struggling to grasp why Khan was selected, does he have a fan base ?

That's what I heard as well

Don't think we'll know the exact figures until closer to the fight.

Ultimately, this fight and payday allows Khan to return to 147 and get another payday as he's expected to lose. It's a win-win financially.

Khan is getting 55-45 of uk revenue...and 45-55 of us revenue

On top Khan will still be able to fight Danny for the WBC after
