Two welterweights top the "highest paid athletes" list. No hw is top 20.

why does mayweather get paid so much? Im not a fan of his style and i wouldnt pay no 60.00$ to see him stink the place up. I hope guys like canelo, or chavez make money they truely deserve. They deserve that money? For fighting whom?

Lotta loot.

Where is the whole list? Wladimir gets paid heaps too There are no heavyweight champions in the top 20. Wladimir is at #24.

I would think Vitali or Wladimir are on there. They make mega bucks in Europe.tickets are cheap to their fights & many are giveaways. they have a TV deal & don't get PPV money, etc. david haye brought more money to the table in their fight then wlad did. that's coming right from the klitschko team of advisers.

For the record, Wlad is at #24. Cotto at #75. No Vitali though.

wonder how long that will last tho. even tho the athletes arent getting paid much, the sport itself is getting a lot of viewers. i rarely met any boxing fans, most of the youth seem to follow MMA.

Arum is probably envious of how the Fertittas pay MMA guys peanuts. Bet he'd love to do that with Pacquiao.

The UFC is making a lot of money...but it's not going to the fighters that's for sure.

I don't see any MMA guys in the top 100. :lol1:And yet the MMA stans keep on saying that boxing is dead. LOL The Fertittas and Dana White are even worse than Bob Arum when it comes to paying fighters.
