Froch-Groves only made £10 mil between them and they sold 77k tickets and 900k PPV, we are supposed to believe Joshua/Martin are splitting the same amount?

Okay Joshua is way better and brings all the support. That is not how it works
Is Martin selling a single ticket for this fight? Are showtime buying this fight because of Joshua or because of Martin? (Joshua deal announced before Martin iirc.
Joshua brings all the money, the TV, tickets etc etc. Martin brings a belt.
He's not taking the lion's share. no way.

Source?
Here's what I found: Says Joshua's gonna get GBP5mill and Martin will get GBP 750k.
I don't see Martin pulling 8 million for this fight, and sure as hell he aint pulling the lion's share. He was literally an absolute nobody 5 months ago when IBF stripped Fury, and Glazkov tore his ACL. Even if you look at that Glazkov vs. Martin purses, Martin was getting 250k for that fight while Glazkov was getting $520k.
Joshua's last purse = GBP 3M, Martin's last purse = $250k.
Unless you can provide any semblance of a decent source, I'm calling a big fat BS on this one.

But Martin didn't need to take the fight, and Hearn saw an easy opportunity to grab a title for Joshua. Whilst true Martin may not make as much with most other opponents, he'd be eyed up by many
