I think it is a damn shame that Pacquaio is going to anywhere close to $180 million based on his piss poor performance and whining afterwards about a phony shoulder injury.

Hang on a sec. The money he makes has no correlation to whether he is boring in the ring or not. The financials are more a question of marketing. Transformers movies make a billion. Bon Jovi have sold a huge number of albums. Money is no signifier of quality or entertainment value, at all.

He's tremendously boring, especially these days - Pacquiao, Canelo, De La Hoya, Marquez - all exciting fighters, were reduced to nullified sparring partners because of Floyd's cynical, horrendous style. Oh I forget, the onus is on THEM to make Mayweather's ass less tedious

Floyd is one of the most boring, joyless fighters in boxing right now. His obnoxious fanbase are too busy revelling in the win over Pacquaio to actually understand the problem with the fight of the century.

Oh well, keep crowing about how much money he made

****head.

Sorry homie, but that is the ******est shit I've ever read. BTW, that's really saying something here on NSB.

But, every opponent of Floyd's know in advance that they're getting in the ring with quite possibly, the best defensive boxer in the world. Some say he's a wizard defensively. Every opponent that has fought Floyd experienced the same result over and over, least punches landed, least punches thrown. That is Floyd's game and it is impeccable.

That's a given before you even get in the ring with Floyd!!!

That stated, opponents must find a way to break the cycle of past opponents and land more and throw more. The onus is on the opponents of Floyd to change the pace and connect percentage during the fight. Its not on Floyd to become a hittable target -- What kind of sense does that make?

Floyd's game is to make you miss, while connecting with his shots. Those are the very basic principals of boxing and he is a master at it.

Here's the problem:
We've become accustomed to less than skilled boxers going out there and getting their brains beat out through their eyes and think that's they way it should be across the board. And we can no longer (some of us) appreciate a certain level of skill.

Who's fault is that????

Idiots like Mortal think it was a great post lol. "Ether doe"

These men choose not to go all out for the win because Floyd's style would punish them for that. Instead, they decided that losing via UD was better than risking getting KO'd to win That's not on Floyd.

Canelo is the perfect example. Had he fought Floyd like he fought Kirkland, he might have won a round.

You really want Floyd to not fight at his best to make it easier for guys to win?

we know why Guerrero's dad isn't asking them to. Why aren't you asking for them to step up their performance?

Mayweather is alwyas at his best, thats not the problem. The problem is he chooses opponents when they are not at his best, wat past his prime, drained or in this case with injuries and coming from a devastating knockout. Floyds timing is always right, he picks opponents he knows he will beat at that particular time. Floyd beat the name manny pacquiao, not the fighter

Its TR/HBO putting excitement above winning. The give their big draws opposition that "looks great losing" or has no real chance to win. Then they sell that. How fans support that is crazy.

Then when they face highly skilled fighters and lose, they bury the skilled guy in favor of the loser. Mostly because of economics. The guys that "lose great" take less money. They are just happy to keep getting fights despite losing.

Winning is devalued, except for only those at the top of the TR/HBO pyramid.

I don't understand this. Floyd was looking at $80 million himself.

Both made more money now than they would have any other time this fight would have happened. The same sarcastic "Floyd should have tooken da $100mill offered by Dubai doe" regarding Floyd.

But thing is it was floyd fans accussing manny of ducking because he wouldnt take 40 millions, no1 was forcing mayweather to take the 100 millions but they were focring and talking **** to pacquiao for not taaking 40 millions.

Floyd fans were repeating the same sh8t floyd was saying (like they always do)

"Manny should accept 40m because thats his highest payday"
"Manny has never seen 40 millions"
"Manny doesnt deserve more than 40 millions"

They were more worried about how much money floyd was getting paid than the actual fight. You wonder if floyd pays them a cut from what he earns lol

Them floyd fans always trying to twist things.... lol

Probably aoutt 150 million the IRS and Floyds fans who hold EBT cards, WIC, *****care will take the rest. You ever see one someone wins 300 million in the power ball the IRS leaves with 130 million. High earners pay about 40% do the Math Floyd will take home 150 million off 40% Josie Harris will take 20 million from that law suit leaves him with 130 Mrs Jackson will probably take another 20 million thats down to 110 Floyd Sr 10% cut 27 million down to 93 his cut to Al Haymon who knows how much that is. Than all the sparring partners,Body guards, Judges, ref he bribes so I doubt he walks with that. Whats left will be a cool 80 million more than what most of us will make in a life time doe

There's no way that Floyd pays $40m for those two cases; both cases will be settled for likely a quarter of that.

Beyond that, the amount paid to the IRS is going to be significantly less than 40%, due to the tax code [federal tax bill is offset by what was paid in NV sales tax, Floyd ******** as a going concern (his constant wagers on contests allows to be noted as a ******** business) allows him to write off ******** losses (up to the amount of his taxable winning), the proceeds from the fight get paid to Mayweather Promotions LLC (dropping the rate the funds are taxed at to 35%, also allowing for a host of expense related deductions), real estate holdings allowing offsets of mortgage interest, his other business stakes and their potential for further offsets ('The Money Team' lifestyle brand, Mayweather Boxing Club, etc)]

If Floyd employs a good accountant, he gets that 40% federal tax figure down to 25% rather easily. Between Haymon's fee, the trainer fee, and his camp expenses, he likely covers that with 25%-30% of his take. Everything covered and Floyd likely drops $120m into the bank after paying everyone.

Top Rank is supposedly getting $180m on the fight; I wonder how much of that Pacquiao gets to put into his account, once everyone gets paid.

Floyd didn't choose ODH, ODH refused to fight him for years then chose him. Same as shane.

Manny walked away 6 years ago. Manny was the consensus #2 P4p fighter in the world even at this stage. We saw why he walked away May 2nd. I wished he hadn't of 6 years ago but then he wouldn't of made as much after getting beaten so easily.

Floyd has always been and will always be better than these guys, especially Manny.

[BoxingLegend89']

Yeah Mayweather keeps getting younger and younger.

i honestly dont know why people bring floyds age.
Floyd is alot fresher than alot of fighters

In boxing washed up and age are two different things.

Morales washed up at 30
Fernando Vargas washed up and DONE at 29
Victor Ortiz washed up at 28

those are 3 examples and their age is almost when they should be at their prime and they are aalready old for the sport.

Its common sense but i know this forum doesnt have it so i break it down for you.
