    He needs a dance partner. I doubt Floyd versus Clottey would get 700,000

      ^ Every other time Floyd has fought the same opponent Manny has fought he has done better numbers. Those are just facts. Not opinions.

          I think he is very good at selling a fight TBH. He's just ****** though and spends it

          If a business has a revenue of 1 million, it looks damn good right? But what if you cost of running it is actually 1.1 million, then basically you aint making a penny.

          It is not about revenue, but profit ladies and gents.

          Look at Oscar, he made his money, fine ass wife, a big shot in a very sucessful promotional company. That's what you call a PPV star.

            That is true.

            Floyd is American and should really sell in his own country.

            However Before Oscar it wasn't any different to Pac.

            After Oscar it's been fairly similar too

            The main difference is that Oscar is the big one, but I bet msot casual fans wnated a refund for that fight with Floyd.

              There isn't much to brag about in terms of who he beat,

              so they have to look for something to get excited about.

              You know how women get wet when a man has large pockets.

              Out of all the fighters in history,

              Floyd only gets recognized for how much money he made, and not what he did in the ring.

              Comical.

                He lost most of it.

                Whatever he has made from JMM has largely paid for his taxes.

                He needs atleast 2 more PPV fights after Mosely to be ok for the life style he has

                I don't think he made that much money fromt he Oscar fight TBh because I don't understand how he went broke so fast

                    That's the difference between floyd and pac, people remember pac on what he had done in the ring and people will remember floyd of how much money he made and still got broke. LOL
