    Did Mayweather actually receive 20 mill from WWE?

    I don't think so! I believe he is bumping up his economic viability as an entertainer, businessman and a boxer. Letting the public know that he got 20 mill from WWE means that he'll have higher demands once he returns to boxing. Oscar will have to give him way more than 20 mill and Floyd would never consider fighting a Cotto for less than 20 mill, thereby pricing himself out. Why train for a real fight against a real champ and train 3 months for it when you can have a fake fight for which you didn;t even train and still get 20 mill? Yeah right! Rock in his best days didn;t get more than 5 mill a year.

    They lied about the figure and they should've kept it a secret, meaning that Floyd got paid pretty substantially.

    I don't think he would have done it for any less.

          Floyd working with the WWE is benneficial to them so Im sure he got quite a bit of money. Would the WWE be recieving front news headlines without Floyd? The WWE is getting their highlights shown on ESPN, its not all about how much Floyd is worth as an entertainer, they are also buying advertising time because Floyd offers them other outlets, its business on both ends, i dont think some of yall comprehend that. Instead of buying commercial spots where they would pay millions, they hire Floyd, and all of the sports world is talking about it in addition to the entertainment world, smarten up people.

              No offense to you but what the hell is HHH going to do if not roll around on the ground rubbing peters with other clowns, its not like he can go to Boxing or UFC...

                Vince DOES have it to spend, WWE is actually at an all time revenue high if I heard correctly

                Even though, talent wise, it sucks...

                  im just saying HHH is one of there biggest stars and he doesnt even make that in a year.. im not completely doubting the fact that floyd could make that much... but $20 million is a very large sum of money for only a couple shows
