    I think we'll get our answer when the circus comes to town, I mean when Mayweather fights Mcgregor, the "boxer" lol

    The answer is of course: No, that would be Audley Harrison. He was really on another level of terrible.

    There's also Broner but I guess they make million dollar paydays because they're fast fighters who will look good fighting gatekeepers 2-3 times before stepping up and makimg somebody look good in beating them. I remember before Mayweather Vs Mosley people were saying Berto would be the one to beat Mayweather because he had looked tgat fast before that

    There is a new generation of fighters out there that think they can command million dollar purses without delivering elite performances inside the ring. It's terrible to see, its bad TV stations support this and I hope it ends some day.

    Charles Martin had one million dollar payday, singular. He doesn't count.
