      Saw that on Michael Benson's twitter earlier. Surprise that Golovkin made more than Canelo.

          I don't understand this list at all. I don't think this guy is going off of actual paydays. He's going off of something else.

            Bellew and Haye made more in their rematch than most of these guys, so I take these results with a pinch of salt.

              How the hell did canelo make $50 mil and Ggg make $30 mil from their fight? I didnt think it was THAT commercially succesful for each of them to make that much.

                    Canelo hasn't fought this year, so.. .. This guy knows his sponsorship salaries or something? In Mexico?
                    I'm thinking this might be a cheap, speculative list.
