Can't believe Salido's purse was a measly 50 grand and how much of that did he actually take home? Smh..

Ya know what's really, really ****ed up though? Salido, a 20 year champion veteran of 60 fights, with a huge number of great FOTY wars, gets only 50K for one of the best fights ever seen, while a young newbie prospect with only about 6 fights gets close to a million dollars for fighting a guy that Salido should have beaten twice in a row, only for judges to rob him.

Worst part of it all, Salido also beat that young newbie with only 4 fights.

50K for a 20 year, 60 fight veteran champion in a legendary FOTY title.

850K for a 6 fight prospect in a fight in which both fighters had lost to Salido in previous recent fights (even if one was given a gift decision).
