How Much Did Canelo & Crawford Actually Make? — Fight Purse Breakdown

The Canelo Álvarez vs. Terence Crawford fight has been one of the most anticipated matchups in recent boxing history — and the paydays reflect that.

Here’s the breakdown of what each fighter is reported to be making:

• Canelo Álvarez is guaranteed somewhere between $100 million to $150 million from this fight. Many reports put his base purse closer to that upper range, especially when factoring in all the extra income from streaming, sponsorships, gate revenue, and promotions.
• Terence Crawford confirmed his guaranteed purse is $10 million. While some believe his total take could be much more if bonuses and revenue shares kick in, that $10M is what’s been publicly confirmed.

While Canelo is clearly set to make a significantly larger haul, Crawford apparently accepted a smaller guaranteed fee, likely in exchange for other benefits (legacy, championship opportunity, etc.).
