Okay, so, let me tell you about this whole Ryan Garcia purse thing. I’ve been following this guy for a while now, and his recent fight got me really digging into how much these boxers actually make.
First, I started by checking out his past fights. I found out that he’s made somewhere between $1.5 million and $2 million from his fights alone. Pretty wild, right? Then I dug a little deeper and saw that his fight against Luke Campbell? It made a gate of like $353,835, and he took home around $500,000 from that. Not bad for a night’s work, huh?
- Against Emmanuel Tagoe, the guy bagged a guaranteed $1 million. And get this, he also got 70% from the PPV sales. That’s like, roughly $3 million total!
- Then there was this other fight against Oscar Duarte, and apparently, he earned around $500,000 to $1 million just as a base salary. But his earlier fights? Those were the real money-makers.
But here’s the kicker. There was this huge buzz about his fight with Devin Haney. Not just about the win, but about this crazy bet Garcia made. Rumor has it, he bet a ton of money on himself to win. And guess what? He won! I heard he raked in about $12 million from that bet alone. Can you believe that?
Oh, and you know he was three pounds overweight for that fight? Imagine being that confident, betting on yourself even when you’re not at your best.
So yeah, that’s the story of Ryan Garcia and his purses. It’s been a wild ride following his earnings, and honestly, it’s pretty mind-blowing to see how much these guys can make in a single night. It’s way more than just punching each other in the ring, that’s for sure.
