    It seems like despite inflation Mike Tyson's career earnings figures has been doubling several times over the decades(unless they're counting his new age business ventures which would have to be worth hundreds of millions to make this work). It started out with the 300 million figure and it will eventually be a billion.

      Given that canelo is only 32 and the only active one on the list that's super impressive he's on his way to surpass most of those guys.

      Haters incoming.

        Canelo has at least another decade at the top in the sport. It's amazing and surprising he was able to acquire such vast amount of wealth at such a young age compared to the others.

              If we went by earnings SOLELY from a their respective individual sports, I'd think Money May would land around#1? Or I used to hear that

              also the rest of the boxers on that list would be higher up, and maybe some more would make the top 50(maybe)

                  They should then have another column that ask "how many of these boxers attained their accumulated wealth?" I bet Holyfield doesn't have much of his money left.

                    It’s intersting, they are all US based. It appears the biggest money for boxing is in the USA. Flies in the face of some of the propaganda pushed on BS from a certain group
