Comments Thread For: Mayweather To Receive $40 Million Guarantee For Ortiz?

[Jexy55]

Mayweather JR.,from a recent news, rejected a $65Million to fight Pacman, Now he is being offered 45M to fight Ortiz, and it seems that he is going to accept it!

Mayweather JR is indeed DUCKING the current P4P Boxer Pacman!

$45m for a fight with Ortiz is insane! vs Pacquiao is BY FAR the biggest fight in the sport and should be worth DOUBLE what the Ortiz fight is....at that rate you'd look at $90m for the Pacquiao fight, not far off Mayweather predicting/saying/demanding (however you wanna look at it) $100m

im not saying anything. once again FORBES states floyd made 65million last year. its so easy to check out. forbes anual list of richest athletes. only tiger woods made more at 75million.its not mrjoeblive saying this things that was a DIRECT quote from FORBES.

They most likely combined his purses against JMM and SSM then. I've never seen reports where PBF made 70 million against SSM except from PBF's mouth.

[mrjoeblive]

Uhhh... no he did not. You're way off, by about 32 million. DLH made roughly 45 million in that fight and Floyd made less than half, 20.






If you have a link that shows PBF made 70 million against SSM I'd be very much interested in it.

you could go to forbes.com and hit the link for richest athletes im sure. i saw it on yahoo sports. and again at the end of the year just check out the anual list of highest paid sportsmen. floyd has been on the list for years. and you quote an anonymous person. that proves nothing.

Boxing Specialist Reveals Mayweather Turned Down 65 Million To Fight Pacquiao

You can do your own research. Find me a source that says PBF made 70 million specifically from his match against SSM. I've shown you on source that proves you're wrong about PBF making 52 million against DLH. I'm sure you can find other sources out there.

Boxing Specialist Reveals Mayweather Turned Down 65 Million To Fight Pacquiao

hahahahahaahaha come on man!!!!!!! you provide a link where BOB(i hate floyd) arum is saying floyd turned down 65mil????? bob(i was lying then but im telling the truth now) arum ??????? give me an UNBIASED source. i dont believe anything bob says when it comes to floyd. he has to smear floyd to promote his client. UNBIASED source

[Medved]

Are people that dumb? Do you think promoters/HBO likes to LOSE money? 40 mil is ALOT of money for 1 FIGHTER. There is no way HBO fronting floyd 40mil unless its against Pacq.

People think money grows on trees, for 40m HBO can put on shows all year round and make way more cash.

But Floyd is the #1 guy to listen to when it comes to money, not like he ever lied about how much he made or ever paid his taxes

i dont have to do anything. but for you forbes is an UNBIASED source. and your source reveals nothing at all but what amounts to mere gossip. and you tell me you cant trust forbes????? but im supposed to trust some ghost???? i believe in solid sources. thats why i look at forbes each year to see who made what. forbes dont have a dog in that fight they dont promote any fighter nor do they care who made more than who. they just report the facts. thats a source you can trust. just like i wouldnt take as fact anything floyd sr say about pac as his values are with his son.

mayweather has always been the only true cash cow. but this fight won't be easy. this is a boxer and puncher. not the one dimensional style of pacquiao.ortiz can box and brawl. manny straight up pacquiao has no chance against either mayweather or ortiz.

You do know that Mayweather will deny what you just labeled him "true cash cow"? That mythical $40 Mil would not be enough to settle the libel & defamation lawsuit brought by PacMan, plus the criminal and civil lawsuits pending from his ex wife and that rent-a-cop. He really should schedule more boxing bouts to cover his legal expenses. If PacMan has no chance against Mayweather, the cops and IRS will get him to bend over. So you see, Mayweather really has no choice but to step into the ring and make some serious money. Win win to everyone.

It's rumors like this (most likely spread by Floyd himself) is why the IRS is after him. They love to target vain superficial ego-maniacs that can't help but publicly inflate their material worth!! SMH
