Tyson lost those endorsement deals when he start having legal issues. samething with floyd.

If it wasn't for that, both would have been close to a billionaire.

So, Floyd is an employee for Showtime now. :what:

That's is partnership dummies. Floyd didn't ask to fight on Showtime.

Just like the NFL and NBA partner up with ABC, CBS, and NBC.

Showtime came to Floyd and as
Is floyd getting paid by showtime or not? Are cacs running that ship or not?

I already expain myself with facts people just ain't gonna ignore
more people pay to see mayweather than they did tyson it a fact

tyson was more adored before the heel turn, doesn't mean he was bigger

floyd's already made more than tyson's gross purses and his endorsements combined

nikkaz bringing up videogames lmao, Buster Douglas had a videogame too is he bigger than floyd

people think mayweather isn't known around the world lmao

if he fought in the UK he would sell out Wembley Stadium

I ain't reading through all these post, but I remember him saying he doesn't want or need endorsements cause they try to change you and he doesn't want to be "corporate Floyd"

When he first retired, within two years he was having his cars repoed.

Yeah, Exactly. He had IRS problem when he first retired. This is pretty much to tell you about Floyd.

Inside the ring, he is an amazing defensive tactician, a master of the "sweet science" so I'm a huge fan of Floyd in the ring, he's a boxing genius.. Outside of the ring he has always been a poor excuse of a professional anything. Floyds legal troubles are no surprise.

He's easily accessible, through goofy instagram videos/pictures/postings which hurts his "aura/mystique" .....

Also he's been in a bunch of gaudy and offbrand beefs/situations...

I respect his flair, but when branding yourself you have to give the consumers/fans a certain aura, you've got to have some type of "mystique" about you...


For instance Mike Jordan, we didn't found out he's the total opposite of who we thought he was until he cashed us out for hundreds of millions, and even though we know he is a piece of shyt our psychs are so warped of his prior greatness that we still wait outside of sneaker stores with wristbands/raffle tickets to get the same exact sneakers he dropped two years prior....

This.

Floyd is the only athlete in the world that can say whatever the fukk he wants. Without worrying about losing endorsement money or being suspended by a league.


Floyd doesn't have to worry about being spanked by White Daddy like what happen to Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson. Or this recent with Marshawn Lynch being fined $100 for not talking to CAC ran media.

Mike Tyson in his prime in the 80s was at a different level than mayweather....Tyson was like Jordan back then..he was known worldwide,he could sell out a fight with hype anywhere in the world..no boxer not even floyd is even close to what Tyson was back then...

Of course, Tyson was biggest than Floyd so no question about it but not gonna act like Floyd isn't either but he paints himself to be a villain to sell and get people to hate him. Floyd just has no idea how to manage money. Unlike Mike Tyson,no one will care who Floyd is in 10 years if he didn't fight Pacquaio. He will be just another pathetic who's ducking the greatest fighter. If Floyd fought Pacquiao and won then people would have started to respect him. I'm very positive that Mike Tyson actually gave him some adive but probably Floyd probably told him, "N!gga, I know what I'm doing". but don't listen.


Tyson lost those endorsement deals when he start having legal issues. samething with floyd.

I agreed. I believe none of that shyt would have happened if Mike Tyson's trainer/legal guardian (Cus D'Amato) was still alive with him.

Probably but tyson still made a lot of money, so it wasn't like he was hurting for money back then.


shyt floyd could make over 200 mill next year if the big fight happens twice.
