Apart from Pacquiao which boxer will be broke within 10yrs

[CarlosG815]

"Broke" to millionaires isn't "broke" to most of us.

Tyson might be "broke" but the guy still lives on a heavy 6 figure monthly income and he'll have that forever until he's dead, and then he'll transfer a ton of wealth to his children.

He's an exception.

Guys like Malignaggi who talk about big paydays and "You're gonna see me w/more bling" etc... He'll be broke in a few years because he can't get $10,000,000 to do a Monday night Raw appearance like Tyson can.

It's easy for these guys to be broke if they don't play their finances right.

Floyd is too smart, I don't think he'll be broke. It's too hard to say as most fighters aren't an open book.

Possibly Mayweather, but I believe he has a future in boxing after he's done as a promoter. Remains to be seen how well he will do in that field. We know he's good promoting himself, but its not that easy promoting other people.

Floyd has a future in promotions and a commentator for a network like HBO.

ok I'm new to the board and from what little i've read that you've posted....i just shake my head.....

You defend mayweathers money "making" and then start a new thread touting someone elses "entourage" and "giving away" and not making big fights......DUDE.....gthoh with that bs.

check the currency exchange.......1 US Dollar = 45.32 Pesos (phillipine currency)

so, 1million US is 45 million in his homeland.....his exchange rate is GREAT!

also, the cost of living compared to here is quite a bit less.....so again, he's making out. and you were so quick to defend floyd's extravagant spending yet have no common knowledge of what investments and what businesses pac is involved in. You should know ALL facts before presenting an argument that you will likely lose....

OH....and just an FYI....floyd IMO has ducked QUITE A FEW folks! So don't go jumpin' on someone else for takin a lesser fight unless ya jump on ya boy as well!

The guy gives his money away-didnt Mike Tyson give cars and money away?

He has a huge entourage-Mike Tyson and Ray Robinson had big entourages and both ended up broke at some point

He gets screwed by his promoter,doesnt fight the best money fights e.g taking Clottey for $6-$10m when he could get $40m.Rule number one ,invest in all positive NPVs,the bigger the NPV the better the investment.Why would anyone ever take a less paying fight when he calls himself a prize fighter.A fool and his money are soon parted.

He gets apparently 27% of his purse-Didnt Tyson get screwed by his promoter during his fighting days?

He is spending $10m on an election he's not expected to win,being used by politicians.

Roach gets paid tonnes of $$$ by Pacquiao.I'm not saying Roach aint a good trainer but he just gets too much from that purse.

It's always sad when people end up broke,going back where they came from having been reckless and less clever with their money.

Apart from Pacquiao who else is gonna be on the dole in 10yrs time?

hi flawless loc how you doin?

as for the question, pac will NEVER EVER BE BROKE. the guys is about to enter philippine politics. politics anywhere = money.

Floyd will end up broke while bobby pacquiao will still be ballin riding manny's cottails.

Pac is an institution in the philippines. politics, tv shows, movies, albums, tv shows, boxing promotions, endless sream of endorsements that floyd couldnt touch with a 100 feet pole.

That's what happens when you endorse nike, head & shoulders, mcdonalds, among other things. & thats just his american endorsements.

BIG ASS FAIL OF A THREAD FLAWLESS.

Cost of living in the Philippines is cheap. Pacquiao already has some investments in the Philippines: commercial buildings, bars, restaurants, digital printing shop, taxi cabs and I think a golf course.

EDIT: And yeah, just like Hate Giver said. Politics and show business can give you lots of money also, apart from endorsements.

[Unbreakable]

pacquiao won't be broke. the dude has a lot of investments in the philippines which will give him a good life and his kids son's and daughters a good life. he is making dollars here in the US which is billions in philippine money. he would never ran out of it. he is set for life and he doesn't live like gayweather he still lives in the slums but in a mansion.

[RisAri0]

manny pacquiao can only get broke in the U.S. .. other than that he has a country of his own to fall back on

[Dehydrator]

Floyd has a future in promotions and a commentator for a network like HBO.

Floyd a commentator???

He stutters too much and contradicts himself from one sentence to another.
