    Because he is a Don.

    He gets money from all the haters; people have been so desperate to see him lose all these years but instead they just made him the richest boxer in history.

    Lol.

    1. arum didn't manage floyd...trt king don hale and j prince were just some of his previous managers.

    2. floyd wasn't a star when he was with arum. it was arum that made him and put him position to be a star.

    3. floyd paid haymon 6.6mil from his 24mil ortiz purse...business savvy?? :nono

    Floyd still needs to pay 40% to IRS, 27% cut to Haymon, 10% to his coach, trainer and staffs. He also pays for the overhead cost of promoting which GBP used to do for him which gets 27% cut from him before. He's not getting that $100M full.

    i like Floyd people hate on because he flaunts so what lol he can do as he pleases with his money. Its not his fault he's the most popular boxer in the sport. If people dont want to see him shine don't order his fights simple as that lol

    40%+27%+10%+27%=104%


    Well God damn, Floyd does give more than 100% to boxing...!!!

    At that rate he will be broke by the time Pac ducked him in 2009

    Well what he gets paid won't affect me in the least but these crazy percentages Pac fans throw out are kind of amusing.

    I don't get it personally. But then I don't get how people pay for $10,000 hookers either. Ain't no ***** in the world that good and you could get a hundred bargain basement hoes or ten really nice ones for that money. Jerk off, then make your business decisions. You should never shop for food when you are hungry. Is that $10,000 prostitute a brilliant business woman, or does she just have a very dopy clientele with more dollars than sense?
