Chris-Billam-Smith vs Mateusz Masternak Prize Money
The anticipation is palpable for this world cruiserweight title fight between Chris Billam-Smith and Mateusz Masternak. This huge boxing clash set for 12 rounds goes down from the BIC in Bournemouth, England on Sunday night and is simply not to be missed.
Over 6,000 boxing fans are expected to be packed into the rapturous Bournemouth International Centre to witness this compelling main event. Chris Billam-Smith vs Mateusz Masternak takes centre stage in the main event, with several high-class fights on the undercard too.
For ‘The Gentleman’ and his Polish opponent, both men are expected to make huge sums of money for this fight. Given the calibre of both fighters and the fact this is a world title fight, the purses for each fighter are set to be rather lucrative.
For the champion, Chris Billam-Smith, he is expected to earn the second biggest purse of his career, behind his crowning night back in May. The 33-year-old reportedly pocketed around £300,000 for the Lawrence Okolie fight, and is set to make between £200,000 and £250k for his first defence this weekend.
In the opposite corner, Mateusz Masternak is also set to receive a rather high purse. His previous fight purses aren’t exactly public knowledge, but rest assured the Polish boxing veteran will likely receive close to six-figures, if not more than that.
Both men are set to earn a fortune this weekend, but the question on everyone’s lips is just how much money will the winner make exactly?
How Much Will The Billam-Smith vs Masternak Winner Make?
Well, the answer to that question entirely depends on who wins the fight. Both men are expected to receive an individual fight purse, so depending on which man has their hand raised will determine how much the winner receives.
The winner of the bout will likely receive an additional purse on top of what they are already expected to take home. Do not be surprised if in the aftermath of the fight it is reported that the winner has earned far more than their original base purse states.
There is so much riding on this fight, both in terms of money and stature. If Chris Billam-Smith is to win and make a successful first defence of his world title, which the best online gambling sites expect him to do judging by the odds, he could earn closer to £250,000 in total.
Similarly, if Mateusz Masternak can become world champion in his first attempt, he is likely to receive the biggest purse of his career. Whoever gets their hand raised will life the coveted WBO strap, with just one world title belt on the line in Billam-Smith vs Masternak.
In Sunday’s main event, Chris Billam-Smith is the 2/7 favourite to win the fight with the best boxing betting sites. This is a tough first defence for ‘The Gentleman’, who could easily have taken easier fights rather than this tough test against ‘Master’.
Some punters will of course fancy the Polish veteran, Mateusz Masternak, as the betting underdog in this fight. He is currently priced around 3/1 with the best UK sports betting sites to shock the world and become world champion for the very first time.
