How did Mayweather get so rich?

I think a better question would have been how did Floyd become the Cash Cow.

People are mistaking Floyd's ability to generate revenue from his fights with his money management skills.

so is that why he is being sued left & right for reneging on deals?

is that why his promotions got evicted for non payment?

is that why he got millions swindled?

is that why he was getting cars repo'd by the banks?

is that why he had to borrow money from oscar & al haymon?

Yea, that floyd is sooooo rich he makes mitt rommney look like a welfare case. Unbelievable.

Huh? What the ****? Floyd, ALi, Leonard and ODH all made more money once they left Top Rank. These are facts. How is your response connected to my post? On another note:

YOU CANT GET SWINDLED FOR MILLIONS IF YOU DONT HAVE MILLIONS!! millionaires dont lend money to broke people.

The richest person in the world.

Slim is reputed to have a fortune of $80 Billions. I have just received a newsletter all about him, but in the past year have invested in several of his companies, alldoing well and paying big dividend.

I'd never heard of him before 2 years ago. He lives in the same house he bought 40 years ago, like Warren Buffet, and drives his own car.

He did it by ridding him self of bob arum

If it weren't for Arum he wouldn't be where he is today. Arum made him.

Talent and boxing only takes you so far, how did he get these deals and transfers?

he took over his own career. he made himself a commodity.

I don't believe he is nearly as rich as he is flamboyant life style might indicate. I believe that he may be coming out of retirement and arranged this coming fight because he is running short of money.
