Comments Thread For: McGregor Tops Canelo, Joshua on Forbes Highest Paid Athletes List

[TheCell8]

Canelo understands some English, but is too lazy and uneducated to actually sit down and learn the language in his free time.

No he wont. LMAO
Floyd will take the lion share and then the McGregor cut will be split probably in half by UFC. He will make a lot of money probably 20m maybe 30m max for that 1 fight. Fight will make a ton of money but too many hands grabbing a slice of that pie before mcgregor even gets his fork out. Floyd might make 75m because he ain't splitting nothing and has his own promotional company that will handle everything.

Lions share will be north of 125mil. Don't be a hater. Conner will make more than canelo in 2017 ALSO.

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

this is true

they should have had him in english classes when he was 15

strange

well not at 15 cause at 15 he will fighting in ****** ass clubs in mex no one knew he will turn out to what he did but back in 2013 I remember he was trying hard and was taking classes and would bust out his english here an there in interviews than all of a sudden he said ****ed it and never continued with it./

No it won't when Dana white first starting talking about making this fight he wanted to do a 50/50 split offering mayweather 50m. But you think Floyd getting 150m and mcgregor getting 75m? What fantasy land you live in. Mcgregor gets ****d by UFC was making 9m according to this report for fights that were hitting 1.6m ppvs sold. You know how many ppvs you would have to sell to pay the 2 fighters 225m in purses? SMH

Didn't know I was talking to chollo vista with all that insider info. We'll talk numbers after.

Does this mean Canelo>AJ as the bigger draw?

Mexican superstar Canelo Alvarez had the highest position for a boxer at number 43, with winnings of $28.5 million - with $27 million in earnings and $1.5 in endorsements.

IBF, IBO, WBA heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua came in at number 89. He picked up $22 million, with $18.5 million in earnings and $3.5 million in endorsements.

At this point in time it does and that's how it should be seeing as he's had close to 30 more fights. Don't be surprised if that changes this time next year.

[OnePunch]

This is for 2016. Canelo made over 20m for the Chavez fight alone.

No it isnt. If you read the story, it clearly stated that in 2015 Floyd clowned everyone, but that this is the SECOND STRAIGHT YEAR that Cristiano Ronaldo took 1st place.

That would mean that Cristiano Ronaldo was 1st in 2016, and in 2017.

Which makes this list ******ed, because its only June.
