When has Floyd ever said something that made sense?

what does it matter??? but i doubt that is correct. 25 million sounds about right but either way we arent getting none of it so it dont matter.

Because he's expecting to sell 1.5-2.0 million ppv.

He made 30 million from just the Marquez fight. He had a bigger piece of the pie, but he sold less. The split with Mosley could be anywehre from 60-40 to 75-25.

Oscar made 50+ from the Floyd fight btw.

By signing a big fight, promoting a big fight, attracting the masses, and fighting the fight. That usually does it.

*Yawn* With all due respect to Floyd, i don't think he can make 40 million dollars fighting Mosley, i don't think it's even possible against Manny Pacquiao. I do think he can and will make at least 20 million dollars fighting Mosley though. Like one of the poster above stated, why should we give a damn about how much money he makes? He's not gonna give any of us his money, so **** him and every other athletes.

Well he is hooking up fans with free fight tickets and plane tickets for the fight through Twitter. If he wasn't making so much money, I highly doubt he'd do that.

it's $40 mil. using the mayweather calculator.

you know that one that calculates $70 mil. for a pacquiao fight , $20 mil. for wwe and $0 taxes needed to be paid to the irs.
