Does Mayweather break yet another record come September?

[GrandpaBernard]

This thread is borrowed from another forum I use.

Oscar De La Hoya ended up earning $52 million for the bout [Mayweather fight], the highest purse ever for a fighter.

Floyd is already guaranteed $40mil.

Last time they guaranteed him $22.5mil, revenue came out to $78.3mil, he took at least $17.5mil or around 22% of the rev generated, and walked away with over $40mil.

even the $40mil guaranteed is crazy! a lot of money

floyd will ptobably get between 50-60 mill

[Las Vegas,]

Floyd, with all the sponsers and everything will mostly walk out with 45millish. The reason why Oscar made so much was because he was fighting, and he was the promoter of the show.

He would of made ALOT more if Floyd asked for alot less like Ortiz did for Floyd.

If Floyd is guaranteed 40 million, there's no way he's earning 22% of the revenue. Otherwise the "investors" are going to lose a lot of money.

They don't call him MONEY Mayweather for nothing!

I think so. Guaranteed 40M + greater share of PPV.
