Jake Paul’s earnings per boxing match come from a combination of factors, making a single number difficult to nail down. But here are the three major factors that determine his take-home pay:

Guaranteed Purse: This is a fixed amount negotiated beforehand, regardless of the fight’s outcome. Reportedly, his minimum purse has grown over time, reaching 7 million USD for his most recent fight.

Pay-Per-View (PPV) Share: A portion of the money generated from viewers buying the fight comes back to the fighters. Paul has negotiated a high share (reportedly 65% in one instance) which can significantly boost his earnings. However, the actual PPV sales heavily influence this amount.

Performance Bonuses: Some contracts include bonuses for things like winning the fight or reaching certain milestones within the fight.

Given these, estimates suggest that Paul make a few million dollars (based on his guaranteed purse) to tens of millions (combining purse, PPV share, and performance bonus) from each boxing match.
