On Cyber Boxing zone they Zudah getting around $100,000 for both fights with Spinks getting £800,000 then $1.2m.Emerson Poncey Name Ghent wrote:Be suprised if it was that low mate. I'd expect a zero at the end of that figure. SKY probably paid that amount just to screen it.Wales wrote:Didnt Judah only get £60,000 for fighting spinks?
Doesn't seem right, but Judah was the challenger in Spink's hometown. It says he got $1m for Tszyu.

......loved that "freedom of information act" bit too. I don't think he has fully grasped the concept of what that is for yet!!
It was me who asked that, not Bigped, and I fully grasp what its for, hence the reaosn I asked if it applied to private companies or just govt. organisations. We get requests for all sorts of random stuff under FOI.
As for Judah
As for Judah
Every boxer in the world is well aware of King's reputation, so it is difficult to feel sympathy for any fighter who willingly works with him. Judah was represented by a reputable promotional firm, Main Events, for the first six years of his career. The Bloomfield company owned by Little Falls' Kathy Duva guided Judah toward the IBF junior welterweight title, a $1.1 million purse for facing Kostya Tszyu and the cusp of stardom.
They began the rebuilding process after Tszyu knocked him out by affording Judah a $300,000 payday for opposing Omar Weiss, his final fight with Main Events. Since Main Events and King came a compensation agreement to allow Judah to switch promoters, he hasn't made as much combined for eight fights beneath King's promotional umbrella as he earned for his second-round technical knockout defeat to Tszyu.
The 27-year-old former two-division champion accepted just a $100,000 purse for challenging Cory Spinks in Spinks' hometown 11 months ago. A focused, seemingly more mature Judah walked away from that St. Louis ring with three welterweight titles on Feb. 5. But before he got a real reward for taking that risk, he got careless.
