    2012-Worlds Richest athletes, Boxer on top!

    Link: http://www.therichest.org/nation/for...paid-athletes/


    Who's the top dog in all sports...

    Forbes 2012 worlds richest athletes.

    Top 10 - Is this a guy getting robbed by arum?



    From may 2011- may 2012

    1. Pacquiao = boxing, $67million
    2. Tiger Woods = Golf, $58million
    3. LeBron James = Basketball $53million
    4. Roger Federer = Tennis $52million
    5. Kobe Bryant = Basketball $50million
    6. Phil Mickelson = Golf $48million
    7. David Beckham = Football $46million
    8. Payton Manning = Football $42million
    9. Cristiano Ronaldo = Football $42million
    10. Floyd Mayweather = Boxer $42million

    To end, I say the Pacman is doing a hell of a lot better than the top athletes of the world.

    Guess we now know who commands the Benjamin in all sports.

    It's the Pacman.

    50/50 split seems so generous of pac to offer someone.

    Complete list:

      Didn't Floyd just make like 32 million guaranteed against Cotto and 25 million guaranteed against Ortiz, on top of PPV revenue???? So that's 57 million before he gets his PPV %....

          Where are the UFC fighters on the list?


          It's nice to see that boxing can still be lucrative. Be a top athlete in our sport, you can get p-a-i-d.

            What fails on this is that Pac had two fights during that time span, and Floyd had just one against Ortiz. This isn't conting the Cotto fight obviously.

            He made 25 million guaranteed against Ortiz, on top of PPV revenue which took it over 40 million. He just made another 32 million guaranteed against Cotto, and with the huge PPV numbers, he made much much much more.

            So your thread is faulty.

              If you guys showed the same dedication towards your own career (posting on boxingscene is not a career in case you're confused) as you do with this Pac vs. Floyd nonsense you could do great things.

              Most endeavors are: work > intelligence, as well so you wouldn't come crippled to the fight.

                lol...so are you saying that the money from Pacs earnings are from 2 fights..and the money from Floyds earnings are just from 1 fight?
                If that is the case Floyd is the higher earner, as he made that amount off of just 1 fight compared to Pacs amount off of 2 fights...

                    Yes. You have $1000 your "competition" have $2000.

                    Wait let me check those numbers again.

                    2000-1000= >0

                    Yep. He's richer.
