Floyd Mayweather vs Aaron Chalmers fight 2023 purse, payouts and who won
Chalmers vs. Mayweather fight purse
Although the prize money for the Mayweather vs. Chalmers fight has not yet been disclosed, a review of his previous exhibition fight payouts shows that he is likely to collect another million-dollar payoff. According to estimates, he has taken at least $20 million from his contest with the reality TV personality.
The American fighter received a million bucks according to InsideSport merely for showing up to press appearances. The numbers in the battle with Logan Paul were startling. He received a $10 million basic fee and an additional 50% of the pay-per-view revenue, which enabled him to receive enormous sums of money in exchange for his participation. According to estimates, Mayweather earned $65 million from his battle with the internet sensation.
The sums were also significant in the duel he won against Don Moore on Yas Island in Dubai when he took home up to $50 million. He won $20 to $25 million in his fights with YouTuber Deji and MMA fighter Mikuru Asakura, respectively.
Although Chalmers’ earnings from the fight have not been disclosed, the amount is expected to be the highest in his fighting career.
Weighing in
The weight difference between the two competitors was substantial. In the instance, Mayweather stood at five feet eight inches tall and weighs 154 pounds. Chalmers, a former MMA competitor, weighs 170 pounds, which was a little more than his opponent. He stood five feet, ten inches tall.
The O2 Arena
The O2 Arena, one of the most well-known locations in the British city, hosted the exhibition game. It was opened in 2007 and is commonly referred to as “The Dome.” It has hosted a variety of events, including Bon Jovi concerts and various Olympic events from 2012, such as artistic gymnastics.
However, the O2 Arena saw a patchy attendance, and the 20,000-seat arena’s top deck was completely turned off. There never seemed to be any doubt about Mayweather’s eventual victory by a large margin. Nonetheless, the referee raised both combatants’ arms to declare a draw at the conclusion.
Floyd Mayweather bamboozled ex-Geordie Shore star Aaron Chalmers at the O2 Arena tonight in a one-sided exhibition bout and although the fight was a non-scoring contest, it was plain to see who would have been declared the victor if it had been scored.
