Introduction

Terence Crawford is an American former professional boxer with an estimated net worth of $8 Million.

Net Worth History

When we first started tracking Terrence Crawford’s net worth in 2023, he was estimated to be worth $8 million. However, this estimate was made before his last three fights with Errol Spence, Israil Madrimov, and Canelo, which earned him at least $37.5 million in total. His actual earnings, in all likelihood, were much higher than this. As a result, recent estimates place Crawford’s net worth at approximately $8 Million at the time of writing.

Fight Purses

In a previous interview, which we’ll discuss shortly, Terence Crawford recounted his fight purses from the earliest years of his career. Crawford earned just $600 for his first professional boxing bout, which was actually less than he earned as an amateur. He also mentioned that it took him roughly twelve fights before he began earning $2,500 per fight. In other words, Bud’s first twelve pro bouts potentially earned him less than $20,000. 

Top Rank Contract & Earnings

In the early 2010s, Bud Crawford signed a contract with the boxing promotion, Top Rank. Thanks to a 2019 lawsuit, we can see how much he earned from several of his fights under the promotion. The first of which was a $500,000 base purse for defending the WBO World Lightweight title against Yuriorkis Gamboa in June 2014. He also received an additional $21,931.60 from a share of the ticket sales. Later that year, he earned $800,000 for defending the title against Ray Beltran. 

In October 2015, Crawford earned a total purse of $1,226,824 from his fight against Dierry Jean. The following year, he fought three times, all under the Top Rank promotion, earning $1.2 million against Hank Lundy, $1.3 million against Viktor Postol, and finally, just over $1.5 million against John Molina Jr. The last two fight purses disclosed in the lawsuit were $1.65 million against Felix Diaz in May 2017 and $2 million against Julius Indongo in August 2017. 

Peak Career Fight Purses

Following on from the above, Crawford began earning significantly more money per fight. This includes guaranteed purses of $3.625 million against Jose Benevidez Jr. and $4 million against Egidijus Kavaliauskas from the promoter. From then on, Crawford typically earned at least $3.5 million per fight, with notable paydays of $5.5 million (base purse) in his 2019 bout with Amir Khan, and $6 million against Shawn Porter (2021).

The highest-disclosed purse of Bud Crawford’s career was his 2023 fight against Errol Spence Jr., in which he earned a total of $25 million. Technically, other fights could have earned him more, but this was his highest known purse.

As for his shocking upset decision win over Canelo Alvarez in September 2025, reports suggest Terrence earned a base purse of $10 million. His total earnings from the fight were never publicly disclosed, though some suggest it could have been as much as $30 million. Still, nothing has been confirmed, so we’ve only listed his base purse in our calculations.

How Crawford Spent His First $1 Million

In July 2023, Terence Crawford was interviewed by GQ for its My First Million series, which has previously featured numerous professional athletes. Some of the other fighters to be interviewed for the series include Canelo, Israel Adesanya, and Kamaru Usman. In the series, athletes describe how they spent their first million dollars; however, note that the term is used loosely. Some discuss their first $1 million in expenditures, which could have been spread over a long period. Others outline how they spent their first $1 million in earnings.

In Terence Crawford’s case, he appears to be talking about how he spent his earnings from 2015 and 2016, when he began earning more than $1 million per fight. With that in mind, here’s a breakdown of how Bud Crawford spent his first million dollars:

• Sister’s house – $260,000
• Second sister’s house – $250,000
• Four-bedroom home – $150,000
• Gym building – $100,000
• GMC Denali – $85,000
• Pickup truck – $80,000
• Grandma’s house – $80,000

Expenses Summary

Analyzing the above expenses, Crawford spent 84% ($840,000) of his first million dollars on real estate, of which $590,000 went toward his family’s homes. He bought each of his sisters a house and spent roughly $80,000 to help his Grandma remodel her home. Crawford then spent $150,000 on his home in Nebraska and $100,000 to buy the building that housed his gym. Terence and his team had initially been renting half the building, but when the landlord died, his wife sold the building to Crawford. This is currently the home of his B&B non-profit organization.

Lastly, Crawford spent the remaining 16% of the $1 million ($165,000) on two vehicles. This is a rather admirable account of his expenditure, as he didn’t start dropping tens of thousands of dollars on jewelry like most athletes. There’s no mention of his investments outside of real estate, but hopefully, they were just too boring for the video.

Legal Issues & Controversy

Crawford has been involved in several controversies during his career, including in 2016, when he was arrested in Omaha, Nebraska, for disorderly conduct and trespassing. However, the charges were later dropped, and in 2020, a public altercation occurred between Crawford and Top Rank promoter Bob Arum. Crawford felt disrespected by the lack of promotion for his fight, but the situation was later resolved.

Crawford is also known for his trash-talking and charismatic personality, which have helped build his reputation as one of boxing’s biggest stars today. He is recognized for his philanthropy and charitable work, including numerous initiatives that support underprivileged children and young athletes in his hometown of Omaha.

Introduction

Zab Judah is an American former professional boxer with an estimated net worth of $500,000.

Judah is a former WBC and IBF World Welterweight Champion, and a former WBO and IBF World Super Lightweight Champion. He fought 54 bouts during his professional career, retiring with a record of 44 wins and 10 losses.

This profile outlines our research on Zab Judah’s net worth, fight purses, and significant events that have affected his finances.

Quick Facts

• Typically earned more than $1 million per fight
• Secured endorsement deals with Rocawear and G3 Mile High
• Sentenced to three months in prison for failure to pay $120,000 in child support

Fight Earnings

While we don’t have all the information regarding Zab Judah’s fight earnings, we do know that he regularly earned $1 million per fight. This included a $1 million payday for his fight against Kostya Tszyu in 2001.

When he fought Floyd Mayweather in 2006, Judah was guaranteed a $1 million purse and received a percentage of pay-per-view (PPV) revenue exceeding $7 million. In other words, the event grossed $16.8 million, resulting in Judah receiving a share of a $9.8 million pool. The exact percentage is unknown, so his total earnings could have been as low as $2 million or as high as $6 million.

A similar case followed in 2007 against Miguel Cotto, with Zab guaranteed a $1 million purse plus a percentage of pay-per-view (PPV) revenue. For comparison, Cotto was guaranteed $2.5 million. In the 2010s, he reportedly earned $500,000 for facing Amir Khan and just $300,000 for facing Danny Garcia.

Considering that Judah fought more than fifty times during his career, the information above doesn’t give us much to go on. As far as we’re aware, these are the only disclosed fight purses of his career. That said, most industry experts estimate that he earned at least $15 million during his boxing career.

Endorsement Deals

Outside of fight purses, AZab Judah also earned an income from a couple of brand endorsements here and there. His most notable partnership was with Rocawear, which began in 2003. A year later, he began endorsing the company’s Team Roc apparel, wearing the gear in several of his fights. The only other known sponsor of his was the watch brand G3 Mile High. Unfortunately, his compensation from these partnerships has never been revealed to the public.

Child Support & Arrest

In 2017, Zab Judah was sentenced to three months in prison after failing to pay $120,000 he owed in back child support. Judah argued against the sentence, claiming that while in prison, he would be unable to earn an income to repay the outstanding debt. Bear in mind that this occurred after Judah had already earned tens of millions of dollars in the ring. In response to Judah’s argument, the judge asked him to pay 10% of the balance, $12,000, upfront as a show of good faith. He wasn’t able to do so and was subsequently handed his sentence.

If someone had $12,000 to avoid prison, they would fork it over. Which means that all the millions Judah earned during his boxing career were either gone or tied up in real estate and other non-liquid investments.
