      With 19 PPVs, $700M in career earnings, and owner of the highest grossing PPV, with 2.4 mil buys, Oscar is still the most earning boxer in history. Floyd hasn't even reached half of what Oscar earned in his career. And Oscar is still making millions (off of Money May) with his promotional company.

        I know he made a huge payday back then and GBP made a gazillion promoting Floyds fights since then but Oscar was worth already 100 million+ back in 2007. He couldve fought Cotto or Margarito and sell 1M+. The attention Floyd gets on press tours etc is really ****ing up Oscar mentally imho. Nowadays people remember Oscar more for his fishnet pics and drug problems than the golden boy who won 10 Titles in 7 Divisions. After Tyson retired and RJJ became a punchingbag Oscar was the lone face of the sport and a huge Crossover star. Nowadays He makes a fool of himself talking about a Blueprint on how to beat Mayweather etc. I truly believe if he could go back in time he wouldve never fought Mayweather.
        Dlh wanted to prove he was the best by fighting the best, and he did good. I could be wrong, but it sounds like you have more regrets than Dlh.

          He doesn't at all, him fighting Floyd got Floyd on board with GBP and that has allowed them to transition away from Oscar being their main attraction very easily. That always figured to be a tough transition but now GBP is really established and has had their name up in lights by the biggest earners for a long time now so that attracts new talent.

          I think Oscar regrets how he handled the last 4 rounds of the Trinidad fight and probably regrets the Pacquiao debacle considering he gained little long term from that but fighting Floyd nah that was one of his best moves ever

            You don't know how much Floyd has made in his career yet. Talk when it's all said and done. The 700 mil sounds suspect, but I'm figuring you're adding anything and everything Dlh has brought to the table.

            Dlh never sold any ppv's higher than what he sold with Tito until he fought Floyd. Dlh AND Floyd own the ppv record for most ppv's sold. Dlh and Floyd are making money off of each other.

                That's very possible. Imagine if Oscar retired after beating Mayorga..would Floyd be where he is at today? I think Oscar is struggling with the way his career went and ended. Loss to Tito, Floyd two fights he should have won. Losing to PAC was a fine example of guys staying in the sport way past there primes.
