fight, right? This wasn’t just a boxing match, it was a pay-per-view spectacle.
You know, I’m all about the big fights, and this one definitely had the hype. “Tank” Davis, the three-division world champion, is a powerhouse. He’s got that knockout punch, and his fights are always exciting. And Frank Martin, the undefeated up-and-comer, was looking to pull off a huge upset.
Now, let’s get down to the money part, because, let’s be honest, that’s a big part of any big fight. According to some folks, “Tank” Davis was guaranteed a cool $2 million for this fight. That’s some serious dough, and I’m sure his team was happy.
But what about Frank Martin? He’s got potential, and a lot of people were rooting for him. Well, he was reportedly going to get up to $500k for this fight. Not bad for a young guy, and a career-high payday.
This was Martin’s big chance to step up, to prove he’s ready for the big leagues. He definitely got some attention from this fight, and who knows, maybe he’ll be making even more in his next fight.
So, the big question is, who was worth the money? I mean, I know it’s boxing, but sometimes the payouts seem a little wild. What do you think? Was it a good investment to watch this fight?
Let me know your thoughts! I’m always up for a good boxing debate.
Here’s a breakdown of the purse details:
Fighter | Guaranteed Purse |
---|---|
Gervonta Davis | $2,000,000 |
Frank Martin | $500,000 |
It’s worth noting that these are just the guaranteed purses. The fighters could have earned significantly more through pay-per-view revenue, sponsorships, and other sources.
I’m curious to hear what you think about the payouts in this fight. Were they fair? Were they worth it?
