    Mike Tyson and Mayweather are two totality different animals. Mike Tyson fought and was paid and spent his money. He was made but Mayweather is self made. Everything that was did to get him where he is today, he did himself. Mike Tyson never counted his money but Floyd knows exactly how much he has and is constantly adding to it with different venues. He is a born entrepreneur. Why is Mayweather being compared to Mike Tyson and Oscar is not? Don't let your hate cloud your vision.

    Tyson would buy more rollers and bentleys than floyd, he spent $1m a day on a regular basis. Then there is the infamous incident where he crashed his roller and threw the keys at the feds and said they could keep the car, tyson knew the costs of everything and the value of nothing, where as Floyd spends money he also "seems" to spend what he can afford to a degree. He could spend 10 million per year and it would still take at least 10 years to run dry (if he had no income), atm he still earning and earning at least 8 times that. so you have to take these things into account.

    Floyd has a ton of real estate, he doesnt trust the stock market but has what he calls tiny amounts invested in blue chips. Im not on about casino chips either :good

    Team Pacquiao just showing to Floyd that Pacquiao is truly a global icon. Jetting from NY to LA to London to Miami in few days span to fulfill his global commitments (interview with US print and TV networks, launching his docu movie in Hollywood, dinner with Prince Harry, judge in Miss Universe pageant, etc.)

    Because they are both the highest earners the sport has seen and completely waste their money, perhaps?

    A born entrepreneur who gives $50/100k away by making strippers fight for it? Get a grip.

    Floyd has 3 Buggati's - That's $3 mil. Tons of Lamborghinis and Ferraris - more millions.

    A private jet - $45 mill.

    Mikes spending is NOTHING compared to Floyd's. Nothing.

    Rooney does not make £10m a year in sponsorship this is total BS!!:rofl:rofl Even more marketable and polished sports men with higher profiles don't make £10m.


    He makes under £2m a year with Nike and Samsung. Which sponsor is going to pay this thug £10m a year? When last did you see him market anything? No one cares about him in the UK. His profile is non existent.

    Calls Rooney a thug, yet Floyd has beaten his kids mother in front of those same kids.

    You need to read a dictionary.

    Don't Bugatti's and jets hold their value quite well though?

    Plus we don't really know what he's doing with the rest of his money. He might have invested and put enough away so that he's set for life and all the money he blows is money he can afford to blow because he has plenty stashed away. Nobody really knows but it's very plausible that with his access to financial advisor's etc that he will be okay financially in the long term.

    See it's this type of rubbish that annoys me, delusional. Mayweather, according to his own former team member, with draws 100k every day and puts it into a duffel bag and spends it all. That can't last very long unless you're Bill Gates rich.

    Oscar De La Hoya is an intelligent businessman.

    2nd hand Buggati's are $700k, so there's a mill lost between all 3.

    This is a guy that couldn't pay a $6 mill tax bill, got conned out of $15 mill in one year. He is clueless, financially speaking.
