    We're talking about purses/money here, aren't we? Stevenson's guaranteed purse was superior to most undercard purses combined. When a single undercard fighter has a bigger purse than a complete undercard, it's stacked as hell.

    Putting it in perspective vs Canelo/GGG:

    Jaime Munguia, $250,000; Brandon Cook, $30,000; David Lemieux, $200,000; Gary "Spike" O'Sullivan, $400,000; Roman Gonzalez, $200,000; Moises Fuentes, $35,000.

    Stevenson was paid more than all those guys put together. Hurd was paid around the same as all those guys put together.

        Stevenson wasn't a part of the PPV and fought at a different venue you idiot

          Do you even math?

          $30M in PPV revenue is no failure. Canelo vs Khan did $30M in PPV revenue & this was Wilder's PPV cherry getting broken fight.

            Was a gate revenue number released?

            Idk why boxing keeps the gate revenue numbers so secretive all the time. Pretty much every other sport announces this while the event is playing. The UFC announces the gate revenue as the first thing they talk about at the post-fight presser.

              Im expecting the 150k hardcore fans in the U.S. plus about 50K casual black and Mexican fight fans on top of that.
              I'll take the over on 200k.

              Sports fans were more into this fight than I would have guessed. Out here in Vegas it was a topic of conversation at sportsbooks, being advertised & talked about on TV all the time & a sign of the times for a boxing match going mainstream or mainstream-er is MMA podcasts talking about it & they've been talking about Wilder vs Fury a lot in recent days & weeks as the fight approached.

              I think the bottom estimate I have is 350k-400k & the ceiling in the 600k range.

                  Approximately $4 million I believe, but I could be wrong. A better question is, how much was the site fee?
