You act like this is not common knowledge, the entire world knows top boxers make more than top MmA fighters. But, why don't you list the entire salaries of all the guys on the cards that Joshua fights on. Let's compare what the prelim boxers and guys on the main card makes outside the main and co mains.

That would be more revealing captain obvious lmfao

Agreed. He has improved a lot. I wonder how many fights he has left. Surely he will be worth more than $19+$19 on his next shitty contract.

Looks like the Beast has some sharp people on his team. Good for him, especially since it sounds like his back may keep him from having a long career. Gotta make hay while the sun shines.

Shame that Boxing seems to do so well according to you that they can't pay undercard fighters at least 10k . . .

If you bothered to read my post that you quoted, or even just read the first line, I said "Top boxer pay > top MMA pay". Why you and Sensoria decided to then bring up who makes what on an under card, I have no idea. Who cares?

My point is that if you can be one of the best in the world at either MMA or boxing - which is the goal of 99.9% of people who get into each sport - you're better off being in boxing because you are going to make WAY more money.

That's why Conor - an MMA fighter - had to go to boxing to make more money in one fight than he would in a lifetime of fighting MMA.

MMA fans have been ranting that boxing is a dying sport for years, but any sport that can afford to pay a guy 20-30 million (or 300 million, in Floyd's case), can't be doing that bad.

The UFC's HW champion was still working part time as a fireman. You think guys like Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua have part time jobs?

LOL, again, everyone in the world already knows that top boxers make more, this is common knowledge. Funny how you are too scared to talk about how even though boxing been around longer, prelim boxers and even many main card boxers who are not main or co main, make way less than MMA fighters. LOL, show us, literally quote us, which posters here are saying boxing is dead, you are just making shit up now

Keep trolling tho ;)

I did read it, that's why I responded the way I did.

Wonder why you can't actually respond to my post which has facts and such? :rolleyes:

So I claim that top boxers make more than top MMA fighters, and you chose to respond with facts about what bottom-level boxers and MMA fighters make? What would you like me to respond to? smh
