    What does Haymon do for Floyd, and why is it worth 27% of Floyd's purse?

    Wtf is wrong with fighters like Mayweather and Pacquiao? They like getting robbed stupid?

    He doesn't NEED him. Floyd Mayweather is a loyal person. And if you're loyal, you eat with who you starved with.

    Floyd never "starved" per se. Obviously "eat with who you starved with" is a euphemism for staying loyal to those who you came up with.

    Around 2000, when Haymon entered the world of boxing, Floyd was not a bajillionaire. He was a thousandaire but after you whack that up with your trainer and manager and expenses, it's a pretty good living but you aren't Philthy Rich.

    Haymon and Floyd made millions together. Why dump him?

    How do people know what Floyd pays Haymon? His official manager is ellerbe. I have feeling that 27% everyone is referring to pays his whole management team that Haymon is perhaps a part of. However, I am not going to say I am an expert in Floyd's personal or business finances and I am not silly enough to believe some fools internet speculation. Finally, who gives a ****.

    Even if it's 13.5%, that's 5.4 million dollars Mayweather pays Haymon. :lol:

    For what???

    Why do we care? Because even though we loveboxing, we also love other entertainment, and Floyd's entire persona revolves around entertaining us inside the ring and outside the ring. Floyd is a clown, he is a circus act and he knows it. He is after all "THE MONEY TEAM", and it seems all he likes to talk about is money...So talking about his money is part of his gig.

    Why do you care whether we talk about his money or not?

    Good question.
    I mean, why does President Obama need political advisors, and why do trash men need trucks, and most importantly, why does the average ESB'er need a brain?
