      Edit: took me some time but I think I figured it out.

      1: Manny (all of Manny's opponents earn a lot more than Floyd's - look it up)
      2: Floyd
      3: Cotto
      4: Canelo
      5: Chavez jr
      6: Wlad
      7: Haye
      8: Froch
      9: Bradley
      10: Marquez
      Haye is a good choice, I think you nailed the top 10 guys but I would replace Bradley with khan

        Maidana made $1.5m to fight Floyd so I wouldn't say he's the most lucrative.

          It's a huge misconception that Floyd's opponents earn more than Manny's. Floyd talks a lot about "mayweather sweepstakes" and this tricks the simple-minded folk. Just as he talks about "TBE" and that will inevitably trick these same people.

          (Guaranteed earnings)
          Maidana: $1.2m
          Canelo: $5m
          Guerrero: $3m

          Bradley: $6m (more than Canelo!)
          Rios: $4m
          Marquez: $3m

          Plus, TR fighters see more of the money on the back-end because they break-even at lower buy-rates (because of Floyd's huge guarantee) and can distribute more of that money to the fighters.
