    I just don't see how the WWE can pay him 20 million. I don't even see how they make 20 million in the entire wrestlemania event.

    Wrestlemania is huge. Well, used to be, don't really know how big it is now. I would reckon they are banking on a lot of PPV sales to pay him.

    2m is agreeable, but 20m is just plain stupid. They're gonna be bankrupt.

    :patsch
    I bet you were one of the same guys saying "Floyds ***** ass should fight Ricky Hatton". Then after he did you just move on to someone else. WHEN he fights Cotto, and more than likely decisions him, then who will it be? Back to Margo? Can't be Paul Williams anymore; he got exposed

    I reckon they'll do 3 million when you add the 2 million Floyd fans who bought the Oscar fight!

    please, I never gave hatton a chance to beat Floyd, nor did I give margo a chance, but for the record Floyd did Duck Margo, just like he ducks Cotto.:deal

    I would think that 20 million is not just for one appearance, I'm sure he signed a contract for a more active role...this is another reason why I know the PBF vs Cotto fight will never materialize.

    Good for him . . . $20 Million to appear on a show where everything is scripted? It's just like acting in a movie . . . the better part is . . . it's only about 30 minutes appearance while unlike a movie . . . it takes months or years to finish.

    :lol:
