    Why was Mayweather able to be so successful after he left Arum?

    He now has the top 4 ppv's on boxing history

    Manny
    McGregor
    Oscar
    Canelo


    Made the most money any boxer has ever made from strictly boxing purses in the history of the sport


    Man went from making 3-5 million with Top Rank to 100-300 million...WTF!!!!!!!! that is what we need to be trying to figure out..wtf did he do to get to that level?

      McGregor, Manny, Oscar and Canelo are all huge names. He is also so dislikeable as a person that playing the heel/villain role brought him much attention. That's the skinny.

        If you mean financially, well that's obvious. Because Arum wasn't taking the bulk of the money. Can you imagine how much money the Australian gov't gave him to bring Manny there?

        If Arum said Floyd couldn't get more than $8m for Hatton with him and Floyd got $20m without him, where would that other $8m have gone? Hmm.

            Seems like Oscar and Cotto did well without Arum as well.

                Floyd is an aberration for sure. Doubt we see it again in our lifetime.
