Highest-Paid Athlete Of The Decade Floyd Mayweather Is Going To Be Broke??? [50 Cent Declares!!!]
Fighter Of The Decade Awardee Floyd Mayweather is a wealthy man, and that’s not a secret. Indeed, you don’t get the nickname ‘Money’ if you walk around with no less than $1 million cash in your pocket.
Surfing through his Instagram, he flaunts how rich he is rolling in the dough, flexing his lavish lifestyle. However, his frenemy 50 Cent claimed that Money’s money mountains are starting to shrink and now look more like money meadows.
In an interview with Hot 97 radio, Curtis Jackson aka 50 Cent said:
I think he got to right now because the money is gone. It’s like fight, get the money, spend the money, fight. With that lifestyle, the money’s gone. Trust me. Now it’s like, if you call him he’ll be at your local nightclub because he needs that action right now.
Well, the fact, whether the aforementioned statement is remotely true or not is arguable.
It should come as a surprise that the man who made $500 thousand for every punch he landed is going to be broke.
Floyd Mayweather topped the Forbe’s list of highest-paid athletes of the decade with earnings of $915 million followed by Cristiano Ronaldo ($800 million), Lionel Messi ($750 million), LeBron James ($680 million), Roger Federer ($640 million) and Tiger Woods ($615 million).
Other athletes, including Phil Mickelson ($480 million), Manny Pacquiao ($435 million), Kevin Durant ($425 million), and Lewis Hamilton ($400 million), were also on the top 10 of the list.
As per tabloids, Money Mayweather is among the six sports-person who earned more than $1 billion during their career. The other five are Michael Jordan ($1.9 billion), Tiger Woods ($1.65 billion), Arnold Palmer ($1.35 billion), Jack Nicklaus ($1.15 billion), and Michael Schumacher ($1 billion).
According to a verified source, Mayweather earned over $500 million pre-tax from just two fights against Manny Pacquiao in 2015 and McGregor in 2017 (Mayweather’s last bout). For his former fight, he got $250 million and $300 million for the later one, earning both based on pay per view, ticket, and sales.
