Yeah I’m sure Floyd started the convo by telling you he was broke and then wanted to negotiate a fight. Makes sense.“One thing I tell you, Floyd Mayweather, to this day, keep begging to fight Khabib,” Abdelaziz told TMZ this week. “Begging. Floyd ran out of money. I’m telling you, people reaching out to me every week about Floyd fighting Khabib. But at the end of the day, we’re not interested. For now.”
“At the end of the day, we’re fighting Dustin Poirier. He’s a true number-one contender. We’ve got the guy with the cheap glasses [Tony Ferguson], ‘El Cucuy’ is next. We’ve got a lot of killers in this weight division.”
In fact, he believes a fight with St-Pierre could occur before a fight with Tony Ferguson.
“We’ve got my man Georges St-Pierre… He might be next too. I can see Georges fighting Khabib before Tony fight Khabib. But of course Dustin Poirier is next.”
“100%, [St-Pierre] is the number-one interest fight for him.”

He is managing his money just fine. He didn't even cash one of his 100 million dollar checks years after the Manny fight. No one who follows Floyd would say he is retarded unless they just really hate the guy or are retarded themselves.Like I said, anything outside of boxing. What good is self promoting if you can't manage money.
meh, maybe its a 30-50 million dollar payday, its still good money for an easy night of work imo. It's way easier than Berto and he made like 30+ for that one.

Technically no. He's the first Athlete to single handedly generate over a billion dollars in revenue but not all of that was his take home.
It's how much he generated for himself plus the PPV providers unless I'm mistaking.
Sounds about right. Tony should be next, and I'm sure he will be, but I can see why someone considered "GOAT" of the weighclass above would be a bigger challenge and do the most for Khabib's "all-time GOAT" status. I don't see Dana making that fight though, so he'll be fighting Tony after he gets past Poirier.
I can't imagine Floyd is broke. I know he did go broke the first time he retired but that was before he started making insane amounts of money.
Sorry tony fans, he's earned that fight two times over, but if it means GSP coming back for another fight then i don't care who gets fucked over....
Does anyone believe a word this guy says? Full of shit and full of himself!
Floyd begging for Khabib fight? Oh yeah, I’m sure.
Isn't Floyd the first billionaire athlete? Broke? No way
Except Khabib isn't a boxer and doesn't pretend to be one. Khabib would only agree to a MMA fight, which Floyd would never agree to because he'd lose terribly. It's a money fight for sure, but unless Floyd is homeless he never takes that fight or even considers it.
LOL.. Floyd is always supposedly broke.. just because he comes out of retirement after spotting some easy fights and wanting to make an easy 20 to 100m
Now maybe he was the first time he unretired.. but if he is again for the 5th time.. the guy might legit be retarded when it comes to money..
But I strongly doubt it
Would love to see fake humble Khabib and his fuck face manager be humbled though
Didn't Floyd have an 800m net worth not long ago? Did he bet it all on a dice game in philly?
Neither were self promoted and performing on PPV though and both made the majority of there money through endorsements.Tiger and Jordan both hit a billion before Floyd.
lol begging for legacy fight just pathetic lolLol, more like Ali and Kebab begging for the Floyd and GSP fights. Kebab for the legacy, Ali for his %20.
