So maidana basically made peanuts for hitting the Lottery??

[Awesome-O]

99% of fighters can only dream about making a million dollars for a career, let alone a fight.

It ain't peanuts even if it's a small purse compared to Mayweather.

Of course they are..Pac has to be in with a credible opponent or he won't sell..He's not Mayweather,Mayweather can fight damn near anyone and sell..As is shown with his last fight..

Joshua Clottey?

This really depends on US currency compared to ARG currency. If they pay Maidana something like 5 million US dollars then in his country that money can turn into damn near 20 million depending how valuable the US dollar is in his country. Maidana isn't a US citizen so they figured they can cut corners by giving Maidana money in US dollars so in return he would get a major profit back in country. Maidana probably turned that 1.5 million into something close to 8 million give or take. People forget that Maidana does not live in the US so the currency is different. He is most likely being payed in US dollars so he would see far more money in his own country. Its also a cheap way to pay Maidana so they can cut corners.
