I dunno if this has already been said, but I guess the next meme match-up could be Conor McGregor vs Logan Paul in a boxing exhibition.

Did he really make 100 Million ?
How do we know ?
Who was buying this, I can't imagine many in the boxing community that would.
Paul brings a different dynamic I suppose with the you tube channel, but 100 Million and that's just for Floyd Mayweather.

I think you throw Jake vs woodly, then Jake vs connor... if he beats those two then the Jake vs mayweather is insanity and the entire sporting world implodes while hardcore boxing angrily claim not to care which itself is a contradiction... Also as diabolical as it is to say, by that point say July 2022 its a very close fight...

throw logan in with a diaz brother or joe rogan or shaq or something... Just keep the circus moving.

Joe Rogan/Shaq :clap:
Keep up that way of thinking and you'll sell some appealing celebrity bouts to the public.
I even bit on Chavez Jr v Silva so what does that tell you.
Get the right match up and undercard and you never know how popular it might be.

I’ve read that Floyd’s guaranteed minimum purse is $10m, coupled with him also receiving a 50% guarantee of the total PPV revenue.

It was a PPV event in multiple countries.

The media are speculating that Floyd will earn $100m from the Logan Paul exhibition, but even of that figure is a tad optimistic, Mayweather will definitely receive a massive payday.

Floyd wouldn’t have taken the fight if he wasn’t being handsomely paid.

He’ll probably earned a bigger payday for a single fight than any fighter (not named Canelo) will receive this year (assuming the Tyson-Joshua bout is pushed back until 2022).

Multiple sources if you bothered to Google it yourself?

I’m assuming you’re sceptical of the figures being quoted, because you’ve spent more time asking others to cite the amounts being claimed than it would have taken you to acquire the information for yourself?

I always wonder why people do that? Why can’t they just get straight to the point?

Just say that the media are talking nonsense, the event was a commercial failure and Floyd only earned pennies.

That’s what you’re really hoping to be true, isn’t it?

I hate to break it to you, but the vast majority of the money earned by big-name fighters is funded by mainstream casuals that know very little about the sport of boxing.

The hardcore die-hard boxing fraternity generate only a trivial amount of income.

They’re commercially insignificant.
