Two-time Olympic gold medalist Zou Shiming will reportedly earn a huge payday in only his second fight as a professional boxer.

Zou, who's easily the most successful amateur boxer from China after bagging three world championships and two Olympic gold medals at light flyweight category, is reportedly set to pocket around $500,000 for either four-round and six-round contest in the undercard of Manny Pacquiao-Brandon Rios clash at Venetian Macao in Macau, China in November.

The 32-year old Zou is coming off a successful pro debut last April after scoring a unanimous decision victory over unheralded Mexican fighter Eleazar Valenzuela.

However, many analysts are not impressed with what they saw in Zou, who just boxed his way around against the inexperience Valenzuela in four rounds.

Chris Williams of Boxing News 24 even believes Zou is going to have a hard time if he is matched up against a decent fighter in his division.

Though he accomplished a lot as an amateur boxer, Zou doesn't have the tools to thrive in the more brutal nature of professional boxing. The Chinese lacks a solid go-to combination and has no power in both hands, making him an easy prey to other light flyweight contender.

Hence, it's more jarring to learn that Zou would be receiving more than other world champions earned in a 12-round contest.

One reason for this is that Zou is going to be Top-Rank's marketing machine in China, which could bring the promotional outfit millions of dollars due to the countries one billion market.
