Floyd Mayweather has 123 Million in just one bank account. Makes the 200K the top fighters get in MMA look like chump change. It's time for the UFC to spread the wealth to their fighters or be very afraid when the form a union.

The pay in MMA has to go up.

The pay in MMA has to go up.
Why? Seriously.
-
Top Combat athletes deserve the most pay. I say MMA is above Boxing as far as who is the most dominant fighter. I have no problems with Boxing making the money it makes, as long as MMA makes more. Just my personal opinion.
-
Why? Seriously.
How do you expect to attract top talent if the top10 barely break a million per fight?
GSP and John bones jones are making nothing compared to top 10 boxers.
-
And they all make more than bbers...haha.
Stuff as much drugs and food as you can, sell your body to schmoes, and have your internal organs give out, all for what? Mayweather's pocket change is more than most bbers make.
-
the last thing UFC fighters need is more money. fights are boring enough as it is.

QFT

Most UFC fighters would be teaching 9yr olds "forms". Oh brother. For $20 a session without the UFC. Or worse.
-
Boxing takes skill, that's why they get paid the millions.
MMA is so new and the sport is constantly evolving. I like both but boxing isn't something you can just pick up and expect to be world champion with a few years of training like MMA fighters have done.

Nah. Boxers get paid because they generate the $$$ for the promoters.

True. Everybody talking about Mayweather but where is the $ for getting beat up by a crossdresser at the local Natl Guard Armory?

Phil Heath should be earning 1 mil for winning the mr o, the ifbb needs to dip in their pockets.

....seriously? You've got people out there literally changing the world through science and technology who don't even make 6 figures a year...and you think these guys should get more than a million a fight?
Sports are awesome and fun, but when people start getting upset that these guys don't get paid enough it really just reaffirms my beliefs about how bass ackwards our priorities are as a society.

It's just business, it has nothing to do on how much you contribute to society but rather how much profit you can bring in for the various companies that you are dealing with, it's rather sad but unfortunately this is one of the main pillars on our today monetary system.

Bodybuilders sacrifice their lives for the sport (dying for the audience), all for peanuts compared to boxers

Haha, all that money and not an inch of style. New money. Something tells me he won't be invited to join Augusta any time soon :-X
But hey, the kiddo enjoys it and seems to have a good life. Good on him, I just hope he ain't broke 2 years after retirement.
-
If it's true he gambles with that kind of money, it won't take long after retirement before he's broke...He lives one hell of a lifestyle and without big paydays coming in, he better find a good printing press.

I'm 90% certain he'll be broke within a few years and be pursued by 12 different baby mamas for maintenance. He'll declare bankruptcy, make a 'come back' and repeat the whole process. Some people shouldn't be exposed to that much money. New Money rarely handles it well.

No takes no skill to be a bodybuilder

and how much do YOU have in your bank account
think of that very seriously for a minute

POS reporting! Dude said the most he has ever lost was $1M on the Cowboys across multiple sports books.
-
if he blows 122 million he is still richer than any of the people here
-
What a fucking retard. One account, $123MM? FDIC insures that account to $250K. That's 0.2%.
If he has an accountant, he should be brought up on malpractice charges.
-
One account huh?
'The money team' needs to change it's name to 'FDIC' crew

FYI...
The FDIC could not even cover 1% of US banks accounts if there was a bank run. That day is coming soon.

There are ways around the 250K insurance for the super rich...CDARS is one way to put up to 50m in multiple accounts but only use one account to access it all. Lottery winners tend to use things like this on the short term before deciding on how to invest. But 50m isn't 123m...

There are 3000 participating financial institutions, so lil fmw jr would have to track his dough across 528 of them.

I think FM is an amusing story. Gambling is some fascinating news. Dude wins (or loses) tens of millions of dollars. He probably *about* breaks even. And even if he's behind, most of us don't earn $85 mil a year lol.
it's fun news. I hope he keeps on delivering fun gambling side stories like this one.

Fawk.. He's like a parasite that don't contribute shit to our society and look at him in that pic :-\

Now I am glad Denver lost.

Indeed.
Despicable behavior.

$123 million in one account.
who the fuck is his financial advisor?
he's gotta have brokerage accounts.
$123 million would allow me to have my own live-in sushi chef.... I could have 4 philly rolls, 2 deep fried CA rolls, 2 baked crunchy rolls, 15 pieces of salmon nigiri and 15 pieces of Bluefin nigiri everyday.
MMmmmmmmm....

I think floyd knows what hes doing.
Met him in vegas once.
Cool dude, all the way.
Offered to let me and my buddy tag along with him to Haze. We declined due to female company enroute and how shady the rest of his crew looked.

The way CDARS works is he will only deal with one institution and one account number and one rate. He certainly won't make any money using CDARS, but it will be insured up to 50m I believe...

all that money he cant afford class

At the end of the day he's still a ghetto ass Hebrew.
Doesn't really make him a bad person by default.

I be poor, but honest.

We should all be so gracious and humble as Mayweather
-
If you think he is what you see on tv he is happy lol he is just a great troll that gets in ppls minds for $$$.
Funny how he acts the same way in Vegas night clubs.

Those were three different checks.
One was 100k
and the other two were both 50k
for a grand total of 200k. Still not a big hit to his bank account, but no small sum.
