Comments Thread For: Mayweather Donates $15K To Breast Cancer Organization

Wow, 15k. I'm sure they can buy a some more jugs with that money. That'll help.

What a chump this man is. Pathetic. 15k to get this stuff out there, look at me I'm donating money I'm a good person. Typical PR move. **** him.

It's an honorable gesture, but contextually, that's like a 2 dollar bus ride for Floyd. Kind of like the stern fine of 2 mil, peanuts for someone with so much wealth.

The NBA commish is Adam Silver now not Stern and according to the CBA that was the max amount. Their hands are tied because they can't just make him give up ownership.

They sponsor Mayweather fights.

As long as they don't get a cent from me I'm doing my bit.

You're writing essays in here.

Guy does a good deed but on the internet it's still not enough.

LOL.. crazy

ahahahahahahjaj what a lame donation!

According to Forbes, FMJr. was worth and est. 225 Million on 2013.

If you donated 15k out of that 250M it equals a mighty (drum rool please):

.006%

Now what that means for us mere mortals?

If you make a solid 50K per year and you donate .006% it would be an all mighty:

$3.00 bucks!!!!

ahahahahahhahahah!!!!!!!!! Really? lmao! Generous? (Hey sorry for the spelling but Im on my phone!) lol!

I'm no Mayweather fan, but his money is his money. How he decides to spend it is of no concern or consequence to any of us. The mere fact that he donated in the first place is a very commendable act that is worthy of anybody's respect.

Fair enough, but for less than 1/20th of 1% of a 32m pre-tax purse, err, a lot of us probably proportionately donate more. If you make 30K per year that's a $15 donation. Though he does do a lot of other philanthropy. Err, but money is money, and good on him.

Incorrect math bro see above but I got your point. I donate 20 bones per week to my local church, and I assure you I dont make 250M lol!

if floyd donated $1 million to this charity, nsb would argue that he should've given $10 million. It's obviously deeper than just boxing. these people are mentally sick.

15K???lol

i lose more than that in the stockmarket last month and im not even rich!

[Suckmedry]

Of course its great he gave some money, but im a bit inclined to agree its a bit of fuss over a small donation, philanthropists give away far more all the time and dont always have a press conference for it

[Mr.Fantastic]

15k is better than 0k. He may have other organizations that he donates to and it all adds up.
