[[T][B][E]]

waiting for Floyd's online accountants to make up their own numbers and disagree with Forbes

not like its any of our buisness hwo much floyd or any other man makes but we all knew he kinda inflated his numbers but he still banking like a motherfucker.

Not 32 on top of 67, the 32 comes out of... He gets upside, that means when things clear his 32 million guaranteed he gets extra.

He doesn't get 32 million and 50% of ppv.

1 million buys = $67 million

67M / 2 = 33.5m - 1.5m for Maidana - 3.5m for undercard = 28.5m - 32m for floyd.

At 1m buys, the show is 3.5m in the red on PPV numbers. Live gate makes up for it, so do sponsorships, but there are a hell of a lot of expenses. Goldenboy, Haymon, Maidana probably gets a cut of upside too, Shotime will get a cut.

What the article is saying, and what is true, is that at 1m buys, there isn't even close to enough money to give floyd 38m in ppv upside.

I totally agree with the way the article was broken down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I did the same calculating a number of times on NSB...excluding numbers outside of PPV.

Most people dont like to think critical, but if this is true then most of you should also agree that if FMJ and Pacman were to fight and Pacman receives from FMJ 40M. Than it would be hard to be lucrative for FMJ. He is used being the A-side to make more than a minimum of 5 times what the B-side makes.

What is GBP making arent promoters supposed to make atleast 20%? Or is GBP making 20% of the GBP undercard fighters?? I think Mosley said FMJ is also under GBP so that would mean that he also had to pay a share of lets say 20% to GBP.

The people who were saying that both manny and FMJ could make 100M, no shhh about (boxing)business

That's all there is about Floyd, his income, his money. A very poor uncharismatic character that has almost no personality except being rich. Totally insecure doing everything possible to keep his 0. When you think about his personality, what comes into your mind? Very ambitious, obsessed, but also greedy, shallow, insecure and sop****ric.

Intelligent? Nope. Charismatic? Nope. Profound? Nope. Humble? Nope. Fair? Nope. Confident? Nope. (Otherwise that glove gate would have not happened) Honest? Nope. He is a good boxer that uses every advantage to win and picks his fights, the most money he makes is by people paying for his fights because they want him to lose and get knocked the f. out. I have to admit, thats some kind of cleverness, using the hatred towards you to get richer.

Never fought Margarito, Paul Williams or Pacquiao, fights that would have been a challenge and would have been "for the fans". He should have lost that first fight against Castillo, most everyone scored that fight against Floyd, if he had lost it, maybe he would have become a better, more reasonable and maybe even somewhat humble person. I really pity all these mindless fools that follow him like Floyd is paying them and never question any of his foul actions.

But that's life, average Joe out there is not really a smart thinking person, its someone probably below Floyd's intellect.

You dude are blinded by hate!!!

At the moment FMJ an W. Klitsko are pretty much the only champs out there who consistently have dominant wins and have an aura as if they cant be beaten.

Why do you think most people want FMJ to fight guys above his weightclass. His walk around weight is ven in the low 150 pounds.

Always these post with nothing but hate, is it really that black and white?

Doesnt he come across as one of the more business savy fighters??

Hasnt he proven just as what in the UFC that you're persona and your skills in the media are hella important regarding how you're going to get Paid and and what kind of draw you are? UFC-> Chael sonnen.

Isnt FMJ an eye-opener for a lot of the athletes, doesnt he make them aware that they should be smart about business. dont you think because of FMJ and his succes a lot of fighters dare to put their carreer in Haymons hand eventhoug his mystic?

How many other boxers do you know who are really taking the risks regarding clothing/branding like FMJ now is doing with his TMT clothing and TBE caps?

Isnt he one of the best fighters/promoters out there? UFC president Dana White acknowledges FMJ's outstanding promoting, but hey what would he know?

Arent FMJ 24/7 and all access the best out there?

arent most topics about FMJ?

About his intelligence, in his field of work he must be one of the smartest. He gets big fights he is a big draw like it or not, and he is involved with the way he is presented at 24/7 and all access etc.

short and simple the dude is special and in this era he is one of a kind atleast in the way he presents himself. other good fighters, RIGO and Ward(Wlad maybe in europe) cant get the same done. So a bit of props can be given even if you dont his pure boxing demeanor.

[IST-ra-GLEr2]

Floyd money is funking peasant.smh.

[Croyd]

Didn't Espinoza say that this fight needed to do 1.5 million just to break even?

And Forbes never factors in how much Floyd has to pay for expenses. Advertising, marketing, flights, insurance, etc - that all comes out of that $32 million guarantee

How much do clowns charge bro?

[hypodermical]

im pretty sure floyd has a serious case of narcissism. im starting to doubt his future after boxing, he has mental issues.
