Floyd Mayweather Jr. Hit With Yet Another Lawsuit

[dmarlay]

Pardon my ignorance but could someone enlighten me. Am I right in thinking that after watching floyd on 24/7 about "how all his **** is all paid for", it is in fact the opposite in reality?

I find this staggering, that someone who has been so successful and earnt an exceptional amount of money is being hounded for taxes and in proportion, small amounts of cash. What an idiot, he really does have his priorities messed up it seems...

Yeah, I have to imagine that when Floyd goes to court for defaulting on his car loan, the other lawyers will show that clip in court. He may have set himself up for looking the fool for quite a long time.

well that's because he never really made as much money as he claimed. Just look at this fight, he says he's guaranteed 15 mill, we find out it was 10. the oscar fight, he got 70-30 in oscar's favor then after a certain number of buys it went even further into oscar's favor. The hatton fight, he didnt get a sniff of the UK tv money. & the 20 million pay day for 1 night's work at wwe? bull****.

You think the notoriously cheap vince mcmahon is gonna pay a boxer for one nights work 20 mill? not even the rock, stone cold, or undertaker gets that kind of money.

He made at lot more less with those 2 fights, hence the money problems.

[STEELHEAD]

auh haha ha!
can you imagine the number of people he's stiffed
that aren't going after him!

['Sugar' Freddi]

10 grand aint that much......they gang****in' Floyd with lawsuits!!......I've heard of hard times.....but dam!!......Floyd's rep and finances are ****ed up right now!!!.......when it rains it pours!!

Who is that chick in your sig?

Tyson only got 3 mil for being a ref at Wrestlemania.
I could see Floyd getting around 5mil for having a real match but nothing more.
WWE is public so i'm sure the real amount is on the net somewhere.

just found this

Months before Wrestlemania XXIV, the WWE announced regularly that Floyd Mayweather would be given $20 million dollars to have a boxing match with Paul "the Big Show" Wight. The company mentioned this so often that quite a few news sources reported the $20 million dollar figure as fact. But more than likely the $20 million dollar payout was apart of the wrestling storyline, especially since the WWE reported that Wrestlemania XXIV generated around $23.8 million in total revenue.

There are sources that are reporting that Mayweather more than likely received around $2 million for his Wrestlemania appearance, plus a percentage of the pay-per-view buys.

[Jim Jeffries]

$10K out of the $10 mil (post IRS) that he makes from this fight?.

I don't think he's sweating this one out.

So you really think he's making 10 mill after paying what he owes the IRS plus what he'll owe them from this fight? That's funny.

[Al Haymon]

Hollywood couldn't have written a better script.
Its sad though really. Here we have this ultra talented kid who really could have been a tremendous star and absolute boost for the sport,

but his main concern is "keeping it real" to appeal to the Hiphop crowd and it just gets worse and worse for him.


At some point, its not even funny anymore but tragic.

I don't know that it is related to hip-hop.

He made at lot more less with those 2 fights, hence the money problems.

He made TV money in UK. He got paid off foreign tv rights.

He got a small fraction of the 20 mil he claimed for WWE. Likely $3 mil

2007, he made nearly USD 50 Mn

He made good money last year as a promoter of Lil Wayne's successful tour.

The guarantee for Numero Uno is USD 10 mn, and even decent PPV nums should bring it to $15 Mil. Great nums would earn him $20-ish.

The guy just needs to STOP SPENDING.
