Shields vs Cornejo Purse and Payouts
Estimating purses and payouts in boxing is a difficult task. Fighters do not reveal the full details of their earnings. Moreover, they often earn from sponsors and endorsements during fight week. In addition, there is very little information regarding women’s boxing purses.
Therefore, for this, we will compare their last fight purse and see how much they could earn. According to reports, Shields earned $1 million for her win over Savannah Marshall last year. However, this was one of the biggest fights in women’s boxing history. Thus, it is highly unlikely that Shields will earn a similar amount against Cornejo.
We expect Shields to earn somewhere between $300,000 to $500,000 against Cornejo. While we know how much Shields earned in her last fight, we have no information regarding Cornejo’s earnings. Despite this, considering it is an undisputed title bout against one of the biggest stars in women’s boxing, we predict Cornejo will earn between $100,000 to $200,000.
So while all these figures are speculation, one thing we can be sure of is that Claressa Shields will definitely earn more than Maricela Cornejo. Shields is the undeniable A-side in this contest and therefore, it is only fair that she earns more.
