Haye won the professional sanctioned bout in eight rounds and knocked his opponent down in the first.
Haye was also able to make a profit outside of the ring. The Brit star confirmed that he was paid more than he was against Bellew.
IFL TV said that he thought it was crazy. It's more than I got for the Bellew one. It's insane dough.
"You must make a sacrifice. You have to go to bed at a specific time.
"That's how I train for a fight. Everything gets put on the back burner.
"I would only do it for PPV Money, good PPV Money, and that's all he brought to this table."
The exact amount of the purse is not known, but reports indicate that fighters received upwards to PS4m per fighter.
Fournier stated before the fight that it was a substantial financial package and one that he couldn't refuse.
It could be worth up $6m (PS4.3m to me).
