Well, well, well, look at that! You wanna know how much that Canelo fella is gonna make fighting Munguia, huh? My old eyes ain’t what they used to be, but I hear things, you know? People talk, and I listen. And lemme tell you, that Canelo, he’s makin’ a pretty penny. A whole heap of money!
They say Canelo is gonna make $35 million. $35 million! Can you believe that? Just for one fight against this Jaime Munguia boy. I remember back in my day, you were lucky to get a good meal and a pat on the back for a hard day’s work. Now these young whippersnappers are gettin’ millions for throwin’ punches. It’s a crazy world, I tell ya!
And that’s not even the whole kit and caboodle, you see. I heard Canelo gets money from them tickets, too. Something like 80% of the money from the people buyin’ those tickets goes right into his pocket. Plus, there’s them other things, like…what do they call ’em? Con-cess-ions. Yeah, like the popcorn and drinks they sell at the fight. He gets a cut of that, too. That Canelo, he’s got his fingers in every pie, don’t he?
Now, this Munguia fella, he ain’t makin’ near as much. I heard someone say he’s only gettin’ somewhere between, maybe, $1 million to $3 million. Compared to Canelo’s pile, that ain’t much, but, shoot. It’s still a lot of money, right? More money than I’ve ever seen in my whole life, that’s for sure.
- Canelo’s making $35 million, they say.
- He gets money from tickets, too. 80%, someone told me.
- And that popcorn money, he gets some of that, too.
- Munguia, he’s only getting maybe $1-$3 million.
Remember that time Canelo lost to that Bivol fella? You’d think losing would mean less money, right? Nope! Even though he lost, that Canelo still made $15 million. $15 million! And that Bivol, the one who won, he only got $4 million. It’s a funny business, this boxing thing. But they say Canelo fight money is always a lot.
So, this Munguia, he’s fought some other fellas before. One time, against a fella named Sergiy, I heard he made around $750,000. That’s a lot, but still way less than what Canelo’s gettin’. It’s like Canelo’s in a whole different league when it comes to money. This Canelo vs Munguia fight purse is a hot topic in town.
Now, they ain’t gonna tell us the exact number, you know. They like to keep that stuff hush-hush. But from what I hear, it’s a mountain of money for Canelo. Like I said, $35 million guaranteed for this Canelo Munguia fight. And this is just for the one fight. Then there’s all that other stuff, the tickets and what-not. He must be swimmin’ in money!
And I heard that Canelo will fight with Berlanga in September. They say he will get another $35 million. My god, what is that? $70 million this year? I can only count to ten!
It’s a lot of money for a fight. But that’s how it is these days. These young folks and their boxing. Back in my day, we didn’t have all this fuss about money and fights. We just worked hard and were happy with what we had. But hey, times change, I guess. Still, $35 million for Canelo… that’s somethin’ else, ain’t it?
So there you have it. That’s what this old lady knows about how much Canelo’s making. It’s a lot, that’s for sure. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I think I need to go lay down. All this talk about millions has made my head spin!
