Rumored Ngannou to earn $20 million, not including PPV and sponsorships against Anthony Joshua!

[Fisticuffa]

"oh well you dont know how popular Pavel Semjonov is in Estonia"


Both are tiny sports globally save for a few select markets. Difference is MMA has the UFC which is a bigger global platform than anything in boxing. Try to actually look up and find footage (if you can) of all these global boxing cards happening to see how niche it really is. Theres actually more MMA promotions operating at a decent scale these days if anything.

Operating so well:

Apart from their controversial contracts and business practices, ONE Championship has also shown to have some very alarming finances in the last few years.

Despite ONE’s executives routinely making bold claims stating otherwise, Bloody Elbow has gone over the promotion’s financial filings through the years, showing losses growing at an astronomical rate. ONE’s documents showed that they lost $111 million in one year alone, with accumulated losses of $383 million as of 2021.

Qatari investors are reportedly "embarrassed" of their involvement with ONE Championship, who might just need more funding soon.

20m + ppc + sponsorship

If you ask me, it's still not a good choice in his career. He's kinda wasting his time.

If he wants to be famous, and get a recognition from his family and friends as a fighter he should fight in the UFC.

 

[El Fernas]

Those 600k, actually $700k, one of the rare occasions where the AC actually reports the purse, are a bit deciving, Ngannou had the chance to re-negotiate for a few fights, either way, he made the right moves.

Not sure how accurate is this number, Saudis dont have a problem spending big on boxing so it could be, now something, if they are paying the main event $70 million...unless this thing sells like a mofo they wont even cover that, and then they might have a decent co-main that will also cost them a couple million, so lets say, $75million, they need this thing to sell, of course they dont care about money, but i guess the point of sharing PPV requires to sell well so it doesnt become a bit pointless, also lets hope they dont sit Conor next to Cristiano Ronaldo, ever again.

I heard 7 billion people watched One FC

Good thing Chatri got idiots like you believing his cooked numbers, MMA absolutely deserves fans like you

When is Ngannou fighting Jones? Because UFC makes fights happen right...

Yes okay so more people internationally are watching Japanese domestic boxing cards from Korauken Hall than One FC. You got me.

Ngannou fought Stipe when Ngannou/Stipe was the AJ/Wilder (or AJ/Fury, or Fury/Usyk) of the UFCs HW division, then did it a second time. Then he fought Gane when Ngannou/Gane was the fight everyone wanted. Both of these happened in a timely fashion. None of those boxing matches have happened and AJ and Fury are instead fighting.....Ngannou. You know...when they're not fighting the likes of Jermaine Franklin and Robert Helenius. What a great sport.

Even undercard fighters gets paid few millions in Saudi Arabia.

 

[User9992]

I do not see the PPV getting 500k+ buys but it is a solid base purse. Good for Francis.

Nah. AJ is PPV machine, at least in UK

 

[User9992]

It should do north of 500k if we look at the fact that both fighters involved have momentum. It might not exceed that by much but I'd say it's more likely to exceed 500k than not to reach it.

Should be above 1 million... at least in UK

Classic markg171 comment: so eager to shitpost that he forgot about something as fundamental as time zones.

Apparently you're the one who doesn't know how time zones work as yes, that's absolutely when it's occurring in North America

 

[markg171]

Lol post that source.

When Ngannou fought Fury, Ngannou made an eight-figure payday, his agent, Marquel Martin, confirmed at the time. Martin said in a text message on Friday night that Ngannou will once again be making well over $10M for this fight, adding: “Francis is the baddest man on the planet and his pay reflects it. And the best part is he’s earned every penny. couldn’t be more happy for him.”

[tymikeson]

nnganou definitely took a risk and it paid off big time which made Dana look kinda silly in hindsight

however i dont think dana cares as much as ppl think with his net worth of 500,000,000 dollars.

well over 10M = 10M, MMA fan logic

Another inbred fan claims that One FC is doing remarkably well unlike boxing promoters lmao

 

[markg171]

Here you are again !
No you didn't hear from him since the fight announcement and you know it.
Wonder why you're campaining so hard to discredit ngannou even if that means spreading stupid lies or whatever.

Weird, here's his manager on Jan 6 saying it's another $10M

[chardog]

while I'll always be an ngannou proponent, if there wasnt saudi money involved, would all of his opportunities happen?

 

[Actualized174]

Yeah pretty safe to say we've seen the last of Ngannou in MMA. I highly doubt he even bothers to fight in the PFL.

It's so much "well over" $10M that it's not $11M.

You need serious help, dude. You're mentally ill.

 

[m249viking]

Francis may actually get a huge payday after the hype from the Fury fight. He hasn’t yet tho and so far it’s speculation from Forbes.

AJ sells PPVs very well even without Ngannou

Good for him, as long as he keeps sticking it up Dana's ass I'm happy for him.
I hope he knocks Joshua out tbh.
