Run through several hundreds millions of dollars. Ali/Foreman and all other greats went broke and had to fight in their 40s and 50s.
Preparing for MayWeather/Pacquio 2 in September. Several jewelers have confirmed he can’t afford/pay new jewelry.
Anyways, truth is, he never made the $200m per fight he claimed. If you know the financing behind each boxing fight, you may understand. Every fight has an investor. It his he who carries the bulk of earnings, not the boxer or promoters.
Mayweather kind of broke is different, I’m also sure him being illiterate has made his handlers & managers get away with stealing from him.. he’s probably going into the ring again, maybe he’ll fight those streamers like the Paul brothers.
No he’s getting back into sanctioned fights against pros, not exhibition nonsense.You can only do one or two exhibition before it gets stale, and you can’t make sales. He seriously broke, to the point of repossessions.
MayWeather /Pacquio 2 in September.
Yes. All for show. That’s was his image. Money MayWeather. It’s how he became great. Truth was otherwise. He had a huge payroll and his pay per view ticket sales were not as great as he claimed. There’s a guy who did a breakdown years ago. For example in the Pacquio fight, the arena was not sold out. Clever camera angles hid the fact. But he claimed he made $400m.
He is not broke. He has built his reputation on people wanting him to lose.
I think his target is Canelo, he knows there is money to be made in that rematch, now that Crawford beat Canelo and retired.
Kuna levels to being broke. At my broke point, I can still buy a buroti maguta maguta or two, drink bottled beer daily, fuck lanyes when I want and probably get a few capital items for my business while Kuna ule akiwa broke hata chapo madondo hawezi afford na watoto wanafukuzwa public school over 500 bob arrears. Then kula ule definition yake ya broke is inability to maintain his Gulfstream private jet. So what exactly do you mean when you say Mayweather is broke.
Fifty started saying this 5 years ago. There was something he knew. I just don’t think Floyd made the money he claimed. Whenever there’s a big fight, an investor has to be found. He pays for the 6 month training camps for all the fights, he pays for the promotions ( eg golden boy), he pays for arenas ( at least two) , broadcasting Time blocks on showtime, radio time, celebrities to show up, guaranteed minimum pays for the fighters etc etc. So that by the time vs Floyd Mcgregor round 1 started, investor is $150m in the hole. He has to collect $300-400m, before a larger paying a larger split to Floyd. Eg it’s 90/10 split advantage investor first $200m, then 80/20 next $50m. So all that Floyd claims was investors cut.
I believe the queen of England said, when you make Pennies, you lose Pennie’s. But when you make pounds, you lose pounds. Kukula atakula because of his brand. But he will never have the lifestyle he had. Mike Tyson moved to a middle class community in some state. It’s the equivalent of moving from Gigiri to BuruBuru.
You are also forgetting kuna under card fights where you have to pay the boxers as curtains raisers. It’s like 8-10 bout before the main fight.Huku Kenya boxers are paid 15-30k after training for 3 months. Ukipiga hesabu someone doing mjengo is better off than you.
