    It's often stated that Mayweather is the most savvy businessman in boxing history. I think its at the point where Jake Paul has surpassed him. Especially when you consider the skill to earnings ratio - never has such a mediocre boxer made such astronomical earnings.

      To be fair, what’s dignity in the face of a $40 million payout?
      Dignity is dignity.
      Jake Paul can take a few other circus attraction bouts and, combined, still make his $40 mil without this ugly dangerous farce.

        I don't know, I was never offered this kind of money. It just sucks seeing another man being treated like that.
        It has the foul odor of exploitation.

              So, hypothetically speaking, would you turn down $40 million to fight someone you know you could beat?

                Perhaps, but Tyson is also a very willing participant in this farce.

                  Actually it was Floyd vs youtubers that kicked him off, if he had of tried to do this before Mayweather it would never have got of the ground, Floyd was very innovative in his career from 24/7 to Dancing with the stars to Big Snow to exhibitions with youtubers and lots have followed his path.

                    Yes I would. What would I do with it? Spend it on hookers and blow? I don't even know who to call.

                      I don't think he is. He probably owes a lot of money.
