    Floyd is Dumb and Broke



    Listening to Sonnen is like listening to a meth head talk about anything non-meth related. If this mong thinks Floyd is getting 30%, he's tripping hard! Why is he comparing Floyd's earnings to Tyson and Holyfield? Their total revenue can't hold Floyd's jockstrap.

    I guess everybody is broke that owns a house or is paying on their car. Like I said before, this guy sounds like a meth head.

    Floyd hater here. I know everything about Money is greatly embellished, especially his... Money.

    But even if he only made 1/4 of what he claims he did for Manny and McGregor, that's more than enough money to pay back whatever back taxes, ******** debts, etc he has.

    Unless he's just a complete illiterate when it comes to $ and he has absolutely no competent accountants, financial advisers around him I can't imagine he's broke ALREADY.

    Now if 10 years from now it's announced that Floyd is filing for bankruptcy I'd say yeah, sounds about right.

      Sonnen is looking for publicity. That's what he does. He his self maybe going broke. Trying to stir up something that just is not true. Floyd has tons of investments, including a very very nice gentlemens club. He will never go broke with a gentalemens club in Vegas.

        Didn't Tyson make like $300 million in career earnings?

        That was mostly in the 80s-90s too. With inflation, he's probably on par with Floyd. And Mike declared bankruptcy in 2003.

          Floyd earned almost 300 million fighting Pacquiao.

          Regarding inflation, according to the first link based on my Google query we have the following numbers.

          Cumulative price change:
          110.47%
          Average inflation rate:
          2.51%
          Price difference ($100 base):
          $110.47

          CPI in 1988:
          118.3
          CPI in 2018:
          248.991

          Source: http://www.in2013dollars.com/1988-do...018?amount=100

          So at best there is well over a 3rd missing. Also, Mike's 300 million got robbed for a lot of money from King and whoever else. Also, Tyson never got the %'s Floyd is getting because of his promotion. Floyd didn't lose that money.

          Floyd never had sponsors or did Pepsi, Kodak, Signet Bank, video game, Suntory Dry, and etc. commercials.

          I wouldn't bring up the strip club as a get rich investment.

            Whatever a fighter gets for a purse. Only about 25% actually makes it to their bank account.

            If Floyd made let's say 800 million in purses, it means he is worth a couple hundred million +/- whatever he spent against investments and other sources of income.

              Floyd claimed though, in a video afterwards, if I recall correctly, that he would still not pay taxes' because the guy taxing him, did not work for the money.

                Floyd going broke wouldn't surprise me, but how the fuq would Chael Sonnen know?
