Will Floyd Mayweather be broke in 15 years?

:deal he really would. Apparently he does a bit of commentry for the bbc radio now and again and my mate says he's superb. He definatly knows his **** and speaks very well Paulie M

 

Id be more worried if he was betting 100k on some long shot trying to win a million.

Betting a 100k on a big time favorite is actually the smart way to gamble.

 

almost like the american version of 'sup bitches'

 

I may not like Floyd for his actions but I never wish poverty on ANY BOXER !

 

He'll never be homeless or in need of work but yeah he'll probably blow it all.

 

Most boxers lose their fortune some even before they retire

the life style he leads will lead to being broke unless he has an income after boxing or has good men handling his money

the house the cars the kids all equal money over time and if he stops fighting he stops making money

because of his bad guy personality i find it hard to see him as a commentator since so many are turned off by him

maybe he will promote or train guys

 

For now, the deal he has in place is unheard of and outrageously lucrative. Seems to generate more and more every time out and the Cotto fight looks to continue the trend. According to an NY Times article last September, he's made roughly $155 million in his last five fights alone. People will continue to buy in so long as he remains undefeated, and in the event he does lose, there will be an immediate rematch that grosses far more than the first fight.

 

People want him to be broke in 15 years,but I think he has his business in order.. He is not a Tyson with a bad circle around him,he has a good team and is smart about his investments,etc.

 

Exactly, wouldn't surprise me if he lost on purpose (not saying it's the only way he can lose) but the two obvious fights he can make are martinez and pac, as long as martinez continues to be attached to floyd and getting hbo exposure thatll make alot of cash, and the money to be made off pac needs no explaining, he will make around $130-180 million fighting these three alone.

 

Martinez would be a massive fight if given ample time to promote, and there's no reason it wouldnt. He's not exactly known amongst casuals, but his style is insanely easy to sell with Mayweather's name attached to the event, compounded by the fact he's a naturally bigger fighter and the threat he poses. Even Ortiz was good for 1.25M units and 78+M in ppv revenue alone.

 

i hope floyd does good moneywise on this fight so he has enough money to pay (around 10mil) for damaging pac's rep.

 

is that stupid case still on? because if Arum is to be believed since Floyds said he is on PEDs Pac has made more money, therefore surely the case makes no sense.

 

yes because floyd will not admit that he lied and he won't apologize.

oscar/schaeffer did it and pac dropped the case.

 

Even with an Arum Pac Roach avatar you gotta admit the case is stupid, Pac has made more money since Floyd said he was on drugs, therefore could argue he enhanced his reputation
