There’s a lot of hype for the bout between two up-and-coming fighters, Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney. Furthermore, it promises to be a great matchup between the former amateur boxing rivals. Although they’re both young, their paths in the sport have been very different, setting the scene for an exciting battle of styles and dreams. Subsequently, the former undisputed lightweight champion, Haney has earned his place among the world champions.
In addition, Haney remained undefeated in the lightweight division and recently made his professional debut in the super-lightweight division. Similarly, Garcia is a rising star in boxing and has an immense fan base. As such, Garcia’s fight against Gervonta Davis in April 2023 was the biggest PPV event of the year. As such, Garcia is again set for a mega-fight and is likely to receive a huge fighter’s purse from the fight. Happy Punch reported Garcia’s earnings on X, stating: Ryan Garcia will reportedly have earned $100 million from boxing after the Haney fight.
Garcia’s highest payday came in the 2023 fight against Davis, earning him $30 million. Now Garcia is expected to potentially make even more money in his fight with Haney.
Similarly, Haney’s last fight against Regis Prograis earned him $6 million from the fight. Hence, Haney’s fight against Garcia will be one of the biggest and most lucrative fights of his career. In addition, Garcia recently fired back at Haney and called him a h*e for not being grateful for the biggest fight of his life.
Fans react to Ryan Garcia’s fighter’s purse
The official fighters’ purse for the highly anticipated April 20th bout between Garcia and Haney is yet to be revealed. However, recent results suggest that both fighters can expect a huge payday from their upcoming fight. Furthermore, Garcia recently confirmed the rumor that he will have earned $80-100 million at age 25. Fans reacted to Garcia’s earnings by stating, “He’s sacrificing his record to get the bag. Respect.”
Fans trolled Garcia by stating that he is chasing big fights at the cost of his professional boxing record. Furthermore, fans remarked that after paying child support and living in California, he will only have half of that amount. Some fans feel that Garcia is lying about his earnings.
