Official figures won’t be in for a few weeks, but if Saturday night’s fight comes anywhere close to netting the one million $49.99 pay-per-view purchases that the Flody Maywheather and Logan Paul exhibition brought in, both McBroom and Hall stand to make an absurd amount of money-perhaps enough to make make you question if they’re really doing it for the love of the sport. In the spectacle-filled weeks leading up to Saturday’s fight, McBroom and Hall both claimed to have signed $5 million contracts that also granted them 4% of pay-per-view sales. Look, if we’re measuring in dollars, everyone who participated in Saturday night’s fight is a winner. TikTok star Michael Le, who recently told Esquire that he wanted people to respect him outside of his dance skills, was unfortunately knocked out early on in Round 2 by the infamous YouTube gamer FaZe Jarvis. The only TikTok star to win his fight was 19-year-old Vinnie Hacker, who took down YouTube star Deji in an unexpected knockout. McBroom gained fame as the founder of The ACE Family on YouTube, a page that boasts over 19 million. The OG creator platform won five out of seven fights. The biggest draw is a fight between YouTube's Austin McBroom and TikTok's Bryce Hall. Logan Paul made a guaranteed $900,000 for his fight with KSI, who also made that amount, in November 2019, but due to the fight being on DAZN, it is unsure what percentage of new subscribers or international PPV sales they made.Overall, YouTube dominated the night. The exact figure is not known, but it appears that he made somewhere in the region of $10m assuming he got a decent chunk of the $75m made from the event, which was promoted by Triller Fight Club.

He made 10 per cent of the PPV, as well as a $250,000 base purse, which could have meant he fell far below the $5m figure if PPV sales had flattered to deceive.Īnd his brother Jake only earned a base fee of $690,000 for his bout with Askren, which ended up netting him a lot more than $5m when his cut of the top 10 PPV buys came in. Those two events sold around 1 and 1.5m respectively, netting promoters and fighters huge amounts of cash.īut the Paul brothers both were not guaranteed anything close to what Hall is claiming, and Logan barely scraped that after sales figures came in for his exhibition with Mayweather. It means that the promotion must be confident of pay-per-view sales reaching similar numbers to Logan Paul's recent bout with Floyd Mayweather and Jake's fight with Ben Askren.īryce Hall and Austin McBroom clash tonight The exorbitant sum of money amounts to almost double both Kamaru Usman and Francis Ngannou's most recent UFC title fight purses put together. Hall has previously said that he only agreed to do the fight if he were able to earn a considerably higher purse than his opponent, who initially tabled the deal. He has also said he will earn 4 per cent of the event's pay-per-view sales, and a knockout bonus of $1m should he stop McBroom at the Hard Rock Stadium.
