Floyd made 5mil not 20mil at wrestlemania?

Question

it was reported that floyd made only 5million not the 20 million he said he was getting. wrestlemanias ppv were less then last years too.1million buys this year. 1.2million buys last year with donald trump.

why u think floyd lied about him getting 20million. can anyone trust mayweathers mouth anymore.

Answer 1

yeah i wouldnt be surprised. wwe always does publicity stunts like that, they knew it would get all over the news if floyd was making 20 million and more people would start watching wwe. and it fit well with his whole "money" theme in the wwe. and floyd would have no problem wanting people to think hes worth 20 million.

Answer 2

I dont think we've been able to trust Floyd for a while with comments like "I want to fight the best" and "I fight for money" (then turned down 8 million vs Margarito) But I think saying some thinklike that is just part of his great ability to promote himself to try to get the PPV buys, even though in the end he just looks foolish.

But we can only hope that saying he's making 20 million  is not an excuse to avoidt top notch fighters. By making it seem like if the money was more in boxing that he would. Altough i wont put any money on it.

By the way it was also reported that WWE only made 24 million on the event. So he would have never got that kind of cash.

Dude why are you so obsessed with Mayweather anyway? he is making his money and minding his own business,you really ought to do the same.
