he simply makes no sense.


if you havent made 10 million you cant ask for 10 million...oh like you asked for 10 million to fight cotto when your career high was 5?

if you haven't made 20 million you can't ask for 20 million...oh like you asked for 20 million to figth oscar when your career high was 5?

using this logic you can never ask for a raise in your life because you've never made that much before. You deserve what you bring to the fight. floyd you didnt make 300 million by yourself. same reason your fights with berto, guerrero, and maidana tanked. it takes 2 to make a big fight and you know it. you dont automatically get all the money.

He hasn't made anywhere near 100 million that's for sure.

He hasn't made anywhere near 100 million that's for sure.

that has zero relevance on whether or not he could. that has zero relevance on how much he brings to the fight. essentially floyd wants conor to bring all the fans to watch the fight but he gets to keep all the money? really? go fight berto again floyd. you can keep all the money but you will get much less overall.

Box Thurman and STFU.

lol floyd u did not make 300 million. the fight grossed 500 million. immediately off the top comes like 35% to the distributors. let's be generous and say 25%. that's 125,000,000 gone.

so now u have 375,000,000. that was split 60/40 floyd.

so that give floyd 225,000,000. now, floyd's boss al haymon got his managerial cut, probably 10%, boom another 25 million gone.

Now of that 200 million, take away about 40% for taxes.

Floyd made around 100 million after all was said and done.


Lol these people believing Floyd actually made 300 million loooool.

Floyd telling it like it is. Like it or not he is rich and is his own boss. McGregor has to get permission to fight cuz he in fact has a boss.

40% on taxes?? Where they do that at?

Pretty sure the federal income tax bracket for that type of income is like 35-39%, right?
