Isn't Khan getting that much because it's a combo from UK tv money?
With Khan set to make $13M+ is it safe to say GGG would net $20M+ against Canelo?

This fight will be shown on Boxnation which would have paid a fair chunk to get the fight which Khan will definitely have a cut, and it is a subscription channel not a ppv per say, but it will be a significant amount of money added into the pot for Khan, depending on how many people subscribe and how much Frank Warren bid for the fight in the first place. It also mentions sponsorship, don't know the details of that, but I know a lot of Khan's fortune has come from sponsorship deals especially with Reebok in the early days.Comment

Yeah pretty much. Canelo is probably getting nothing from the UK revenue stream, so it helps to improve Khan's purse, and to be fair it probably helped De la Hoya in the negotiations as he can justify giving Canelo all the upside from the US ppv sales.
In contrast Floyd Mayweather did the same thing thing when he fought Ricky Hatton, in hindsight it was a huge mistake because the fight generated over a million ppv buys in the UK. But that was obviously a different level of fight and the level of interest was far greater.Comment

If it did 1.5M homes at $80 a piece = $120,000,000.00
And the revenue from the gate would be pretty damn high with it taking place at Cowboys Stadium.
And in case you weren't aware, both Canelo and Golovkin attire sell extremely well at these events. Hats, shirts, headbands and all that stuff brings in another large sum of revenue. I can see them making enough to guarantee GGG at least 12 or 15 million with more coming from back end, including PPV. There's no way Canelo takes 100% of the PPV. So 20 million isn't too far fetched for Golovkin. It's up to him if he wants to test himself or not.Comment
