    He killed the list! That was a very well calculated risk by Mayweather.

        Why come in the thread and act like you don't care? Obviously you do or you wouldn't be in here posting.

          Does it 'irk' anyone else that McGregor is listed under "Mixed Martial Arts", when he made that money in/only made the list because of boxing?

              How do they get 285 million?

              Don't the networks take like half of it?

              that would leave like 250ish million to be split between the fighters after the networks take their slice.

              Floyd probably made about 150-175 million before taxes, which is still great; DAMN great, actually.

              But by the time taxes are paid, and he pays Al Haymon his fees, Ellerbe, etc. He's probably netted about 80 million.

              HUGE difference from the 285 people think he made.

                He is a mixed martial artistist who was promoted as such.

                You have a point, doe..

                But I think it's great cause it keeps it in check Floyd beat a dude with literally a 0-0 record LOL..

                I forgot - did Buffer announce Conor's record during the intro's? Hahha nahhh - that would just kill the vibe too much.
