Jake Paul vs. Ben Askren salaries released

Jake Paul and Ben Askren are both primed for big paydays this weekend.

The two meet in a boxing bout that headlines a Triller Fight Club event in Atlanta on Saturday and their base salaries for the heavily-hyped matchup were disclosed to MMA Fighting on Friday. Paul is set to make $690,000, while Askren’s pay starts at $500,000.

It is not yet known what percentage of the pay-per-view profits each fighter will receive, nor what other bonuses they are eligible for.

Super lightweight Regis Prograis leads the list of disclosed salaries at $850,000, while his opponent Ivan Redkach will receive $250,000 for the co-main event bout.
