The California State Athletic Commission disclosed salaries from the boxing event featuring Jake Paul and Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr. at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. Notably, Paul earned just $300,000 for his main event victory over JCC, Jr.
Obviously, Paul’s salary was not the tops but since his company was the promoter of the event I don’t think he’s going to be mad. His opponent, Julio Cesar Chavez earned $750,000 for the fight while Paul earned $300,000.
The one fighter that raked in the money was Gilberto Ramirez who earned $1.5 million for his fight against Yuniel Dorticos who earned $300,000. Ramirez won a unanimous decision over Dorticos to retain his WBA and WBO cruiserweight titles.

Victor Rodriguez $65,000 – Raul Curiel $125,000
