Guillermo Rigondeaux has generated a good bit of buzz since his easy win last Friday over Rico Ramos at the Palms in Las Vegas, but nobody was interested enough beforehand to actually attend the fight.

Figures for the show were bleak, as the fight sold a meager 375 tickets, with a gate of $14,525 total. Thank heavens for site fees and TV packaging this time.

Here are the purses from the card:

Fighter A Purse Fighter B Purse
Rico Ramos $55,000 Guillermo Rigondeaux $51,500
Joel Diaz Jr $5,000 Guy Robb $5,000
Matt Villanueva $3,000 Michael Ruiz Jr $3,500
Javier Molina $2,500 Albert Herrera $3,500
Razvan Cojanu $500 Rodney Hernandez $1,200
Yusmani Abreu-Mena $800 Marcus Robinson $1,000


When all was said and done and all of the fees and other miscellaneous whatnot was taken out of the purses, Ramos walked away with $44,261 in his net contestant's share, compared to $28,950 for Rigondeaux.
