Comments Thread For: De La Hoya To Wilder: I'll Get You Real Money, Make You a PPV Star

[Wolfie*]

oscar is such a tool, why doesnt he just make another ppv star? he got lucky with canelo and basically stole him

I actually thinks he was one in his stable. He just to be promoted right.

DELA HATERS fighters all left for HAYMON so they could get paid!!

Wilder is 40-0, and he has held the WBC heavyweight title for 3 years now. When exactly is he going to start getting paid? It's sure is taking Haymon a long time to make this guy into a big star.
Golden Boy's fighters did not leave "so they could get paid". They were not signed to Golden Boy in the first place because Richard Schyster was committing treason while the company was left in his hands.
You could easily list numerous fighters who's careers have been hindered by signing with AL Haymon. Adonis Stevenson was named 'fighter of the year' before he foolishly signed with Haymon. Al Haymon has turned Stevenson into a laughing stock.

Oscar and Hearn would be nothing without Canelo and Joshua.

Will someone as racist as wilder want a latino milking him? Or is his beef just with white promoters/ black boxers?

Well you're fabricating the false numbers already. The reports are 1.3mil and Oscar denies them. at $70 that's 91 million. Cut that in half for the providers. So there is 72-73mil left. I'm sure promoters get paid off the top too so what's that 30% plus expenses to make the fight happen. Where does 50million fall in before paying GGG his cut, this wasn't a cash only deal, and the undercard etc?

idiot Golden Boy doesn't take 30% again federal courts forced Golden Boy to hand over their financial records for 2016. Canelo took home 80% and that was BEFORE the chavez fight. He was given a bigger percent for the GGG fight. GGG ain't seeing the same money Canelo got and the undercard was paid peanuts. JoJo got the biggest payday on the entire undercard and was paid 200K, the entire undercard was paid less then 500K



None of the undercard fighters get a dime from the PPV revenue they are all paid flat fees. GGG get's a flat fee and some PPV upside. Canelo with his Canelo Promotions are not paid flat fee or just a 1 time guarantee. He is the co-promoter and get's a cut of everything live gate, ppv sales, tv deals, merchandise ect. Again Canelo was given a 3M fight night purse reported by the state of Nevada when he fought Khan. Court document forcing Golden Boy to disclose their financial records said the which only had a 7M live gate and 27M revenue paid Canelo 80% of those profits.

Alvarez-Khan generated revenue of $27,707,448 and was Golden Boy’s most profitable fight of 2016. Khan made $6 million and Alvarez made $13,309,664 (80% of the net profits) while Golden Boy made net profits of $3,327,415.88.

And this was years ago. His new arrangement that's been reported states Canelo now takes home net profits close to 90%. Oscar said himself Canelo made 50M. And the fight generated 125M revenue just off the PPV and ticket sales alone. That's not even counting international PPVs, TV deals for Mexico and other countries. Canelo has one of the richest TV deals in Mexican history.

[Removed Now]

1.4M PPV buys at $70 PPV cost that's 98M in PPV Revenue.
$27,059,850 Live gate off ticket sales (3rd highest in history)

That's over 125M not even counting closed circuit tickets or Mexican TV money, merchandise ect. And you think Canelo and GGG only saw $5 and $3 of it? LMAO

Canelo got a fight night purse of 3.5M to fight Khan that was reported to the public but we know from the Golden Boy/Haymon lawsuit that Golden Boy actually paid him almost 14M. That's public record disclosed by the courts. Canelo took home 80% of the net profits once all the money was counted up.

Latino can be black, white, Asian or mix. It's not an race. Come on bruh. According to your statement if it was an Afro-Latino, I don't think he would mind. In Oscars favor he does not fit that category so no.

[bigdunny1]

I don't believe 14mil khan part. Sorry.

That's not opinion or speculation. Golden Boy did not want to release that information. The courts forced them to turn over all their financial records. You can lineally go look up the court documents yourself it's part of the Golden Boy/Haymon lawsuit it's public record. So yeah Canelo was paid almost 14M to fight Khan despite only getting a 3M fight night purse.

Yeah, Oscar talent roster is very low right about now. He could use some new infusion at this time. However, he can forget about ever working with Deontay Wilder as long as he is signed with Al Haymon; Who appears to have a hegemony on the entire sport. What's so ironic is that this isn't the first time Oscar has attempted to tamper with one of Al Haymon's clients. He propositioned Errol Spence, Jr. in a very similar manner.

Al Haymon has hemegony over the entire sport? Thats a joke, first of all Pbc fighters like Beterbiev, Pedraza, and Herring are leaving Pbc and going over to Top Rank, second of all Top Rank has a champion in half of the weight classes. They also have the 2 top fighters Loma and Crawford and Manny is still big in the sport. Not to mention Top Rank has the best future prospects and have the biggest platform by far on Espn. Top Rank is kicking Pbc's ass in every way right now. Pbc fighters were foolish to not sign with Roc Nation or even Top Rank, they could have made much more money and be well off. Instead the top Pbc fighters are averaging 500k-750k viewers on Showtime which is garbage. Pbc is a sinking ship and they are no better off than when they started, they just fight on Showtime and nothing has changed except they spent a billion dollars of investors money and ratings have plummeted
