They didn't get paid as much in those days. I remember Valuev being laughed at for wanted $4 mil for fighting Vitali, and he was with Don King and wouldn't have seen half that money. Heavyweight boxers are paid insanely well at the moment.

Re: Chris Arreola
These dudes also take big cuts when you consider trainers, managers, taxes, etc
Re: Chris Arreola
That's right, but klitckos were very smart, they don't someone like don King to still over 100$ millions from Tyson.margaret thatcher wrote: ↑01 May 2020, 14:20 These dudes also take big cuts when you consider trainers, managers, taxes, etc
Vitali said we reject don king promotion offer, because he robes people, actully many promoters rob their fighters.
Stupid Efe ajagba is being paid 10K for every fight, he guess he is still in nigeria.
Re: Chris Arreola
Wlad made a decent wedge I'm sure, but what about his challengers? Haye obviously made a lot, but I don't know if many others did. As for Vitali's opponents, who knows? I'm just saying: the money that guys earn now is pretty crazy compared to that 2000's Eastern European / Germany dominated era.Boxtune wrote: ↑01 May 2020, 13:39clopixolacuphase wrote: ↑01 May 2020, 12:06
