ESPN’s Mike Coppinger has reported that both Spence and Crawford are set to earn lucrative eight-figure guaranteed sums for their highly anticipated clash at the Showtime-produced event, the exact amounts of which remain undisclosed.
This generous compensation package doesn’t even include potential Pay-Per-View points, which could further boost their earnings significantly.
To add even more intrigue to the already high-stakes bout, there exists a bidirectional rematch clause.
In the event of a loss, the defeated fighter has the option for a rematch within 30 days, potentially leading to a substantial salary increase for both athletes.
And now, since Crawford won the match in the ninth round, Errol Epence has the option for a rematch appeal.
Before this epic showdown was officially confirmed, Spence and Crawford’s paths nearly crossed in 2022.
However, their plans were thwarted by disagreements surrounding contract terms, expenses, and transparency.
Crawford revealed that representatives from two unidentified hedge funds offered astounding guaranteed purses of $25 million each for both fighters.
