    At 400 million, Buffer clearly is the smartest of them all.

    Hate to see Hearns only has 50 grand. That's a shame.

        How much is Buffer making for big fights? I believe I recall hearing him making 2M+ for a few fights.

          why do people think cyber space is pulling numbers out of thin air ?

          one that surprises me (it really shouldnt) was hearns. he got 5.1 mil to fight srl (srl got a cool 10 mil). adjusted to inflation, thats 13.5 mil for hearns today. he made 6 vs hagler. another 11 mil today. but some people are meant to be rich....for long;


          mike is sitting at 3 mil

          300 mil in 1985 =almost 700 mil today.

          on and on in every sport
          dumb people coming into money doesnt make them smarter.

            Buffer is great and everything, but he doesnt sell a single ticket. No promoter or network would ever cough up that kind of money for a 3 minute novelty. Cmon man.

              Sh^t man I don't see his checks & bank account, but I know he's the premier guy at his job & I've seen sh^t like the below more than once.

              There will be 90,000, mainly partisan home fans at Wembley Stadium for the fight who will be fizzing with eager anticipation for Michael Buffer to take the microphone for the main event. Boxing schedules are as elastic as London Underground departure board minutes so it is unlikely that things will get underway according to plan when the clock strikes 10. Nonetheless Buffer, reported to be earning £4m for tonight’s shift
              http://www.telegraph.co.uk/boxing/20...updates-round/

              So how much is he making on average then if you know whats up?

                $400 million is jayz and puff daddy territory.

                i get that buffer has some trade marks but its ****ing ****** to think its worth as much as an entire record company and millions of record sales, millions from concert tours ect.

                like i said above, his earnings would NOT be publically available, so unless the guy who wrote this chitty web article has access to leakers from all of these different boxers, who many live in different countries... its basically a made up list

                  Because theres no obligation for promoters to release details on every fighters earnings and you have no idea if they spent all that money or if they invested it and what they invested it in and what its worth now.

                  you think every single fighter on the list released their financials to some guy writing a web article?

                  you realize that even if you had their tax returns thats not enough to calculate a net worth?

                    Not sure how accurate those figures are.

                    Also, i heard Naseem Hamed might be worth a lot more than stated there, even though it was a lot of money anyway. Apparently he has investments in the oil game and all sorts of things.

                    These lists are never usually that accurate, like Hamed probably has money all over the place and only a certain amount is being declared.
