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

Luis Ortiz is a Cuban professional boxer with an estimated net worth of $8 Million.

Fight Purses

Luis Ortiz has done well for himself in the ring. Ortiz has fought in 39 bouts throughout his career, and while we don’t have information regarding his purses for every fight, we do know his earnings for his seven highest-paying bouts. From these bouts alone, Ortiz has earned approximately $7.43 million.

Deontay Wilder Fight Purses

When Luis Ortiz first fought Deontay Wilder in March 2018, he earned a guaranteed purse of $500,000. In the 2019 rematch, his salary tripled, earning him a combined $2 million from the two bouts. On the other hand, Wilder earned $2.1 million and $3 million, respectively, for a combined $5.1 million.

Additional Fight Earnings

Some of Ortiz’s other lower-paying fight purses include $375,000 against Travis Kauffman in 2019, and $500,000 apiece for his bouts with Christian Hammer and Alexander Flores in 2019 and 2020.

When Ortiz fought Charles Martin in January 2022, he was guaranteed a base purse of $500,000. However, thanks to his PPV shares, he reportedly secured an additional $1 million, bringing his total to $1.5 million. Later that year, he also fought Andy Ruiz Jr. and was guaranteed $550,000. Reports suggest that Luis may have earned as much as $2 million from his pay-per-view split, bringing his estimated total to $2.55 million.

How Does Luis Ortiz Spend His Money?

Information about how Luis Ortiz spends his money is virtually non-existent, given that he tends to prefer his privacy. We know that he lives in Miami with his family, but as for his house and how much she spent on it, that much has been kept under wraps.

Ortiz is also known to spend money on treatment for his daughter, Lismercedes, who was born with a rare skin condition, epidermolysis bullosa, which causes blistering, fragile skin.

Outside of this, Ortiz does very well keeping his personal life and purchases out of the spotlight. If any information becomes available in the future, we will be sure to keep you updated!

Introduction

Amir Khan is a British former professional boxer with an estimated net worth of $40 Million.

Amir is a legendary Olympic boxing champion who turned professional in 2005. He has held multiple titles over the years as a lightweight, welterweight, and light-welterweight. Khan started as a successful amateur boxer, winning a silver medal at the Olympics before becoming a title-winning professional fighter.

Quick Facts

• Claims career earnings totaling more than $80 million
• Earned approximately $44.1 million from fourteen of his fights
• Received a total compensation of $11 million for fighting Canelo Alvarez

Fight Purses

When researching Amir Khan’s earnings as a professional boxer, we found fight purses for fourteen of his fights. However, it’s important to note that the figures in the table above mostly refer to a base or guaranteed purse, not necessarily his total compensation. Khan may have earned additional income from Pay-Per-View shares, and to the best of our knowledge, only two figures above include such compensation.

According to the data, Amir Khan earned at least $44.1 million from these bouts, with his fight against Canelo accounting for roughly 25% of the total. In an interview on The Stomping Ground podcast in November 2024, Khan said his total purse from the 2016 bout with Canelo Alvarez was over $11 million. According to reports, this comprised a $2 million base purse, plus a share of the PPV revenues, which added another $9 million.

Bear in mind that the $44.1 million total we arrived at covers only the fights for which we found available information. In the past, Khan has claimed he’s earned over $80 million from his fights, which makes sense when you remember he’s fought 40 pro bouts, many of which included PPV bonuses.

As for the Brit’s disclosed fight purses, here’s what we know.

Early Career Fight Purses

Between 2009 and 2015, Amir Khan earned anywhere between $500,000 and $1.5 million per fight, though the median typically fell between $900,000 and $1.1 million. When he beat Marco Antonio Barrera in March 2009 to win the WBO Inter-Continental Light title, Khan earned just $500,000. Over the next year or two, notable wins against Paul Malignaggi and Marcos Maidana earned him $1.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

When Khan fought Zab Judah for the IBF World Super Light title at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in 2011, he was guaranteed $1.07 million. Additional highlights for the period include $1.1 million for his loss to Lamont Peterson, and $1.5 million apiece for his WBC Silver Welter title win and defense against Luis Collazo and Chris Algieri.

Peak Career Fight Purses

Things get slightly more interesting towards the end of Amir Khan’s boxing career, as he began earning significantly more money per fight. We’ve already mentioned his compensation from the 2016 fight with Canelo, which at the time was exponentially higher than any sum he’d received before.

Between 2019 and 2022, Khan had several high-paying fights. The first of which was his bout with Terence Crawford at Madison Square Garden in April 2019. Amir was dropped in the first round, and the fight was ultimately stopped after a low blow in round six. The fight was ruled a victory for Crawford, but despite the loss, Khan earned a $7 million purse. Several months later, Amir beat Billy Dib to win the WBC International Welter title, earning him another $7 million.

Finally, in what would be the final fight of his career, Khan faced Kell Brook at the Manchester Arena in February 2022. He was guaranteed a base purse of $3 million, but reportedly earned as much as $8 million after additional compensation from the UK PPV share.

Real Estate

Amir Khan previously owned a 3,500-square-foot, six-bedroom, six-bathroom mansion in Bolton, England. The ground floor of the property is dedicated to fitness and recovery, featuring an indoor swimming pool and hot tub, as well as an attached gym, changing room, shower, and steam room. Khan listed the home for sale at £1.5 million in 2018, although it’s unclear whether a sale was registered.

One of Khan’s, how should we say, not-so-wise investments was the 45,000-square-foot wedding venue he built in Bolton. Named The Balmayna, this Dubai-style building was built exclusively for Khan’s wedding and events business. However, in 2024, just three months after the venue hosted its first wedding (according to The Sun), he put the property on the market for £12.5 million. Locals claimed that the building opposite The Balmayna was a known fly-tipping area, and there was confusion about why he chose such a location for his venue. We have to admit it’s a rather odd location for such an extravagant venue, given that the surrounding buildings are either mechanics, housing, or fast-food shops.

Philanthropy

Amir created the Amir Khan Foundation to support numerous charitable organizations, including the Water Wells project in Africa and Asia, orphanages in the Gambia, and the Shilpa Shetty Foundation. He was also named an ambassador for the NSPCC, a role he takes very seriously.
