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.

[Order them however you want, all of these guys are currently on the money]
9. Golovkin
[Golovkin is also a network free agent, and no one is amped for it at all. Speaks volumes, in my opinion]

Originally posted by Eff Pandas View PostWouldn'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.
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

Originally posted by Robbie Barrett View PostFury and Bellew should be 5 and 6 on your list, Dillian Whyte probably 7. Bellew and Whyte are PPV in the UK and Fury gets 5 mil a fight. Kell Brook should be on there too. UK fighters get paid well.
Forgot about Khan.
Might aswell just make it a UK list.
By no means does the GK make short money, but it's not long enough to make this list.

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.

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
