Anderson wants boxing and I don't blame him... Anderson is no where near pro boxer level at all... I know amateur kids 12 years old that would tear anderson up in a boxing only match... but the bottom line is... the lowest man on the totem pole for a boxing PPV event will make 3x the amount of a main event UFC fighter..... for instance
chris wideman made 48k last night... he's been off a year waiting for the fight.... sponsors prolly pay him 3-4k per month after all is said and done... id say 1500-2000 of that sponsor money go's to his team each month maybe more.... so in reality chris wideman prolly made 70k over the last year... thats about to change now he's the champ....
wideman is legit ... great fighter... but he did not hit anderson hard... my 8 year old could have taken that punch... wideman was tired.. and fading out....

No one knew who Chris Wideman was. He will make a lot more. You also know the salaries that are given to the press do not include the bonus that is usually double or higher? I have some experience on the agency side (very litte) but I did see some deals as anyone who was or is near to being champion does ok on a yearly basis. A million a year with a guy like Anderson doing way better then that. No way he threw it for 2 million. He makes that with Nike each year alone.
