Wait how did Wade get 500k?
Ward 5m Kov 2m?
Vic Dar only getting 20k?
And what's with the 4x disparity in gross purse between Floyd & Manny?

Purses for Saturday's night's CBS card at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York: Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia will make $2 million apiece for their welterweight unification fight. For the junior middleweight world title eliminator co-feature, Erickson Lubin's purse is $100,000 and Jorge Cota's $50,000.
CBS led the night in the adults 18-49 demographic this past Saturday night, with their broadcast of the “Premier Boxing Champions” scoring a 0.9 peak rating throughout its two-hour broadcast. This was notably higher than FOX’s broadcast of the same sporting event, which scored a 0.5 last week. “Ransom” rounded out the network’s night with a 0.5, the same rating as its previous week.
ABC followed behind with its coverage of the LA Clippers vs Chicago Bulls – which raked in a 0.5 average over three hours. NBC, however, won the night in total viewers, with reruns of both “Chicago Justice” and “Chicago PD” landing 3.43 and 2.76 million viewers throughout the night
Interesting stat as Garcia waa more accurate than Thurman in 9 of 12 rounds#thurmangarcia #boxing @SHOsports @loudibella pic.twitter.com/fOpRWQ5tfc

Just to update this thread since it was brought up yesterday.
Live gate:
Wilder-Fury = $3,515,122.50
Spence-Garcia = $4,747,171.00
Lomachenko-Crolla = $559,387.50
Btw, sales tax for California is ridiculous compared to Texas. For comparison, Wilder-Fury card had about 176k in sales tax compared to 142k for Spence-Garcia.........And the latter did over a million more at the gate SMH.

Gervonta Davis vs Hugo Ruiz (Originally Abner Mares) (2/9/18)
Sold = 6,581
Exempt = 1,266
Live Gate = $440,992.50
Leo Santa Cruz vs Abner Mares (6/9/18)
Sold = 8,252
Exempt = 888
Live Gate = $1,028,004.25
Vailily Lomachenko vs Miguel Marriaga (8/5/17)
Sold = 3,162
Exempt = 1,727
Live Gate = $203,138.00
LSC/Mares numbers were very good. Their first fight looked just as great and I'm mad I didn't think of requesting that one as well.
Davis/Ruiz did good numbers but most of that was due to the original match up and fans just keeping their tickets.
This was the only other recent fight Lomachenko has fought in California in aside from his recent fight with Crolla. I requested his numbers for the Linares fight, but the NYSAC is terrible at getting back at requests. Still haven't replied to my request of Crawford/Khan which I asked two weeks ago. Like not even a email back saying they will get back to me, just nothing.
Texas commission next week should get back to me with Garcia/Lipinets numbers at least.
Any live gate numbers you guys particularly interested in getting?

But I like the general idea of the thread. Good way of keeping track of the ratings and live gate.
