How much was charles Martin paid to lay down and sit and not get back up?

[Vinnykin]

$6million- Hearn said they couldn't get better fights on the undercard due to Martin getting paid so much. It was a 60-40 split in his favour.

Yep. If he had any sense he wouldn't fight again and get that money sensibly invested.

If he comes back within less than a year I would think it's because he loves the sport. If he really loves the sports he's going to want to redeem himself because that fight was embarrassing especially considering the fact that he came out in purple velvet robes.

A poster on here claimed he was paid $8.5M not sure if that was true or not.

Presumably, he only took home half the purse due to tax? I think the tax rate is 45%.

That seems like a more realistic payday. Not the $8.5M that was quoted last week by one poster here.
