    Wilders highest pay day is around $2 mil he probably shouldn't even be on the list.

      Where is Usyk at? He shoulda made $10M+ for winning the WBSS tournament. Not sure what Callum Smith was making previous to the WBSS but he woulda made $10M+ for winning it to. I'd assume Kovalev would be in contention to despite him screwing himself in the Ward rematch iirc. He was getting those supposedly sexy HBO paydays for awhile.
      Bellew's last two fights have been on Sky Box Office, with the Usyk fight also set to be on Sky Box Office. He likely has maybe two fights left, but he's on the money now.

          9. Golovkin
          [Golovkin is also a network free agent, and no one is amped for it at all. Speaks volumes, in my opinion]
          Wouldn't GGG have more in his bank account then the group you got above him. Granted I think he's in the same ballpark as those guys for his regular fights, but those Canelo fights should put him above them I'd think. I mean I'm sure he made AT LEAST $20M off of those two fights alone. I'm not sure any of the guys above him have made $20M in their careers & certainly not in the last couple years as is the cutoff period we are talking about. GGG is for sure higher then 9.

            Basically, I've tried to rate the fighters by the amount of money that they draw for their fights.

            Golovkin did great for his family on those Canelo paydays, but do remember that those are Canelo paydays.

            Golovkin had to wait on Canelo to set his family, had to travel to the UK for a major payday, and is now apparently looking at traveling to Murata's Japan for his next real payday. He's getting paid better for it, but he's almost a road warrior at this point

              Scipio is obviously trolling or ******ed. Golovkin alone has more endorsement deals than all PBC fighters altogether. He easily made 70 million plus in his career.

              Try again you British dosser. You bum!! You’re momma is a bum. Punk.

                Forgot about Khan.

                Might aswell just make it a UK list.
                I did think about Fury, long, and hard, but the numbers don't bear out, he was out for such a long time, that he was unable to match up with anyone on the list financially.

                By no means does the GK make short money, but it's not long enough to make this list.

                  Not sure what to do with this point, do some research, feel free to refute my list with academic reasoning.

                  You will find it's difficult, for example, did YOU know that Danny Garcia is a more successful businessman than fighter, he makes straight bank off his businesses, and his clothing line.

                  All these people are hating on the list, but few of them have published a credible argument in opposition of it.

                    why are you surprised, he sells tickets, and he sells PPVs, and he is the A side of the promotions he participates in, TB being on the list should be a surprise to nobody.

                    He is brash, and a little annoying, but the man is a cash cow, period.

                      This list is terrible

                      Belles for example earned 16m dollars in total vs haye

                      He is third or fourth
