      Soccer and Formula1 are aobviously huge in Europe. Especially if
      you play on the national team you get plenty of endorsement deals.

      How much money is in the NFL?

        I always thought it was the NFL. They have a short season compared to the other pro sports.

          The cap in the NFL is too restrictive for it to ever pay the most.

            Even if you average out how much they make per game?

              it also seems the player union is not that strong there.
              I assume the Team owners get more of the money.

              I d assume they make overall more then the NBA.

                  i say boxing just because even though in other sports you can make 10-15 million it is over a span of years for example 7 yr. contract . in boxing a guy like dlh can make 30 mil. for one night worth of work even guys like tito 10-12 mil for one night ,guys like winky 5-6 mil for one night .in other sports you make this kind of money but over a span of years ..

                      Clearly, playing hockey in the NHL is the most profitable.....wait, what's the NHL again? oh the No Hockey League that's right....

                      Boxers make the most per night's work, football players make the most per game, baseball players spend the most on call girls, basketball players spend the most on worthless ***elry, golfers invest in construction businesses and ugly pants
