Alright, so, I was just chilling the other day, scrolling through the internet like I always do, and I stumbled upon this thing that caught my eye. You know, the whole thing about how much these boxers get paid. I got super curious about this Jaime Munguia guy, especially after his knockout win against John Ryder. So, I started digging around.
First, I hit up a couple of sports news sites. One of them, I think it was called “Essentially Sports” or something like that, had some numbers on Munguia’s past fights. Turns out, this guy made around $2 million fighting Jimmy Kelly in 2022. Can you believe that? And against Gabe Rosado in 2021, he pulled in $1,150,000. That’s insane money for one fight. It got me thinking, how does that even work?
My Deep Dive into Boxing Earnings
I kept going, trying to piece it all together. Here’s what I found out after checking out various sources:
- There was this one time he fought Sergiy Derevyanchenko, a former world title challenger, and Munguia supposedly pocketed about $750,000. Not too shabby.
- After knocking out John Ryder, I read somewhere he earned a reported $800,000. But then, another site said he was guaranteed at least $800,000 for a fight, while Ryder was set to get $400,000. It’s all a bit confusing, to be honest.
- Some sources were throwing around the figure of $20 million as Munguia’s net worth, talking about his boxing earnings and sponsorships. But I couldn’t find anything official to back that up.
I also tried to compare Munguia’s earnings to another boxer, Charlo. Apparently, Charlo made close to $1 million in a fight against Canelo last September. It’s wild how these numbers vary so much.
So, after all this digging, I realized that it’s tough to get a straight answer on how much Munguia actually makes. It’s like, everyone’s got a different number, and nobody’s really saying for sure. But one thing’s clear: these guys make some serious bank. It’s a crazy world, this boxing business. I’m just glad I don’t have to step into the ring to earn my living! Anyway, that’s my little adventure into the world of boxing money. What do you guys think about all this?
