    They drop him as soon as they sponsor him, and then deny that they have ever sponsored him in the first place.

    He is a negative brand, which in the long run has actually benefited him. I doubt very much that he would turn down the millions of pounds a sponsorship would bring though.

    But still isn't the richest sportsman in the world.

    That alone goes to show you how much an athlete can make off sponsorships!

    He is the highest paid athlete who answers to nobody. He doesn't have to apologise when he speaks his mind so that a sponsor doesn't pull out and he has created his own successful TMT brand. So short term maybe he missed out but long term he is the winner

    But he still isn't the richest sportsman in the world, though!

    he probably doesnt have sponsorships because companies dont want him endorsing their product because of his attitude outside the ring. Just look at how many sponsors Tiger woods lost after cheating

    In reality he didn't miss out on much because he is a boxer and boxing isn't really a sport companies like to endorse much compared to bigger more mainstream sports like football, basketball, golf, tennis etc.

    He might have lost out on a few million a year but not much more.
