by Cliff Rold - On May 2, Floyd Mayweather didn’t just notch the most important win of his career.
He got paid.
He got paid more than any fighter ever for a single fight, even adjusted for inflation. The kind of money Mayweather made can be referred to a lot of ways. One apt description would be to say Mayweather made ‘f%$# you money.’
The website Banker’s Anonymous defines ‘f%$# you money’ as representing “the amount of money you’d need in order to professionally disregard anybody else’s needs.” Invested wisely, Mayweather probably covered that against Pacquiao. That’s just one fight. As half of the four top grossing non-Heavyweight, and three highest grossing fights period of all time, Floyd probably had it covered even before then.
When questioned about the quality of opponent for his 49th start, Mayweather stated multiple times that nobody has to buy the fight. Nothing says a fight is a big deal like that, huh? Then they placed a price tag of upwards of $80 dollars (for HD) on the pay-per-view, making Mayweather-Andre Berto one of the most expensive shows ever.
