    A gold medal is a gigantic boost to a career earning potential.

    Mayweather earned a controversial Bronze(should have been in the Gold medal match)

    Oscar De La Hoya earned a Gold.

    In Oscar's third fight he was earning $50,000, in Mayweather's he was earning $7,500.

    So even if a guy like Mayweather or Pacquiao don't compete, guys like Sergio Martinez, Paul Williams, Wolak, etc. would.
