Saul Alvarez (49-1-2, 34 KOs) and Gennady Golovkin (38-0-1, 34 KOs) will receive $5 million for today's revenge in Las Vegas. For both boxers this is a guaranteed amount, which also provides a bonus depending on the sales of the broadcasts in the Pay-Per-View system.
The final purses for Saul and Gennady should be several times larger. The bout shows high ratings of popularity. All tickets to the T-Mobile arena are sold out, and the proceeds from their sale can reach $30 million.
"Canelo" and "GGG" first met last September. After twelve hard fought rounds, the judges decided that the match ended in a draw. The fight will be shown on the HBO TV channel with the start of the broadcast at 9 pm ET.
The remaining purses of the participants of the main battles in Las Vegas are as follows:
Jamie Munguia (250 k) - Brandon Cook (30 k)
David Lemieux (200 k) - Gary O'Sullivan (400 k)
Roman Gonzalez (200 k) - Moises Fuentes (35 k)
