Danny Garcia tops salaries for HBO event at Mandalay Bay

February 26, 2018 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

MMA Payout has obtained from the Nevada Athletic Commission the payouts, attendance and gates from last week’s boxing event at the Mandalay Bay Events Center featuring Danny Garcia and Brandon Rios.

The event sold 4,139 tickets for a gate of $925,180.  There were 1,439 total comps.

The payouts were as follows:

Danny Garcia $1,250,000 def. Brandon Rios $500,000

Yordenis Ugas Hernadez $40,000 def. Ray Robinson $30,000

Anthony David Benavidez $400,000 def. Ronald Gravil $125,000

Edwin Rodriguez $12,500 def. Lionell Thompson $14,000

Cameron Ray Burroughs $3,000 def. Jonathan Louis Esquivel $2,000

Joseph Don Spencer $2,500 def. Uriel Gonzalez Anquilo $1,750

Ladarius Miller $10,000 def. Carlos Padilla $8,000

Andres Cortes $4,500 def. Fatioou Fassinou $3,000

Brian Gallegos $4,500 def. Sulaiman Segawa $3,000

Payout Perspective:

A lot of comps for this event with Garcia making more than the entire gross gate for the event.  Aside from Rios, Benavidez, the 168 pound title-holder made the most on the night.  The breakdown of purse sheet was an interesting look at how much is advanced, withheld and given to managers.  According to NAC, Benavidez paid his manager $133,320.  It was the most paid out to a manager.

It appears Marcus Keene of the AfterShocks pushes Jacob Hanna of JHX Hoops at the end of their TBT game and Hanna falls into a staff member from JHX Hoops. Both and Hanna and the staff member were treated for injuries and the incident turned into a full-blown fracas. #tbt
