Two interesting things - First is the breakdown of the income

#4 Canelo Alvarez ($94 Million= 92 salary + 2 endorsements)
#13 Anthony Joshua ($55 Million= 45 salary + 10 endorsements)
#56 Deontay Wilder ($30.5 Million= 30 salary + 0.5 endorsements)
#92 Manny Pacquiao ($26 Million= 24 salary + 2 endorsements)
#95 Gennady Golovkin (25.5 Million= 23 salary + 2.5 endorsements)

The second interesting thing is that Wilder ain't doing that bad in terms of salary alone. Would be interesting to know what time period they considered because Wilder's stock has just started taking off.

Btw, just look at Federer...86million in endorsements alone. That is more than Wilder and Joshua combined from just endorsements even though his winning/salary ain't that much.

So if the story doesn’t fit your agenda, it’s fake news? Bad news douche bag, Forbes totally respected world wide.

Lionel Messi was the world's highest paid athlete over the past year, Forbes reported on Tuesday in its annual sporting rich list. Barcelona and Argentina star Messi dethroned retired five division world champion Floyd Mayweather as the sports world's highest earner, raking in $127 million via salary and endorsement deals. That put Messi ahead of long-time rival Cristiano Ronaldo, the Juventus and Portugal star who was second with earnings of $109 million.
