    Floyd Mayweather Jr. owns everyone though. $85 mill. without endorsements. Damn that's crazy.


    Beckham ain't going broke anytime soon.. Dude makes guap.

      Floyd Jr has no endorsements???? He could endorse "wife-beaters" for Haynes or Fruit of the Loom, if they'd take him.

Months ago it used to be drug testing issues.
        LOL, Please let Manny KO a JWW in Bradley before you start with that nonsense.

          I asked a very simple question. Now that you've seen the Forbes report, is the $40 mil no ppv offer a bad one in your opinion?

          As to your post, most fighters don't ask for more than they are worth to make a fight. SO lets skip all the nonsense.

          IMO, after seeing this, $40 mil guarantee is certainly not a crappy offer.

              i may be wrong with this but if that is what they got paid for 2 fights (mayweather 85 n pac 56) then mayweather was doing 42.5million a fight and pac 28million a fight (average). If you look at them numbers it implies the split should be 60/40 4 mayweather

                Not to mention Floyd only fought twice the last couple of months. Pac fought more and made way less he should take the 40 mill.

                  Hey Dunn, $40m flat minus Arum's 27.5% is $29m to Manny... which is no better than his paydays for the likes of JMM and Mosley.

                  I don't know if 50/50 will get that fight done, but $40m flat for a Mayweather fight definitely won't.

                    Btw, I'm guessing the Bradley fight is not included in Manny's income, while Floyd consists of Ortiz and Cotto.
