Forbes highest paid athletes announced

[Shadowthrone]

Yea Floyd made 275m in half a year without fighting and he's worth 700m. ok

 

[Dontfight]

Remember he was talking about coming for Floyd in the 'who the fook is that' presser and no one took it seriously.

 

[Willek]

Apparently you get your PPV points paid like 12-18 months after the fight.

 

[tenniswhiz]

Always good to see combat sports on top.

Fuck NFL,NBA,NHL,ETC.

Plenty of non-combat athletes
In fact, most of them, besides #1

#1 = on top

 

[Orochimaru 大蛇丸]

Context. Read the quote he is replying to. Then probably apologize.

I will not apologize for not being able to understand that dribble he wrote, either english is his second language or he is mentally challenged.

Idk how you understand what he said, I could see it meaning 3 different things lmao. I should probably apologize LMAO.

 

[El Fernas]

Wouldnt they mean 2017? He fought Floyd in 2017 almost a year ago, i guess he isnt making it to the "2019" list then LOL.

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

Nah NBA, and NFL are good.

Fuck the NHL though

naw fuck you

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

1 fight got him on that list.

So you attacked his post simply because you didn't understand it? Donny, Donny Aaron, is that you?

 

[MikalP]

Gonna be funny when he goes from #4 in 2017 to not even on the list for 2018.

 

[Fedorer13]

View attachment 389835 This is the top 10 for all athletes. It does not include endorsements. For example, Lebron James has a lifetime Nike deal.

The list in your post includes something besides sport earnings because 85 million a year is more than double what any NBA player makes in a year.

Maybe it includes what Lebron makes from other businesses/ventures, though it’s weird to include that but exclude endorsements. Also assuming other income could include private information they’d have to estimate.

Also Federer doesn’t have nearly that much in tournament prize money in this or any year. He has somewhere north of 100 million in tournament prize money for his entire career but less than 120. And obviously that number will change when he plays more tournaments.

 

[imbossing]

NHL = D level sport

lol have any a level athletic try to ice skate . Specially nba players they will tear a knee so easily and go crying home. They cant handle a real sport

You’re probably right. I just also know the figures for the Lebron Nike deal have never been released, so no one knows what they are. It’s been rumored to be a billion dollar deal. So safe to say this list is not accurate.

 

[donkeyjr]

This list is so bs, what a bunch of make up stats.

 

[Noleggeisha]

It actually is overall. Follow the link. It even says overall in the link in the OP.

Plus 2 & 3 are Ronaldo and Messi.

 

[rearnakedchoke]

Good for these guys. Floyd been there for a while. Most of the other guys like messi etc have been there for close to 10 years. Maybe more. Tiger phil and alonso too.

 

[Dana_is_your_GOD]

Get dat money bitches

 

[A.S. Deep]

McGregor is smarter than he gets credit for. Everyone knew Honda was the biggest draw in the UFC during her championship run but her 'beef' with Floyd would never lead the two in a boxing ring or octagon. With McGregor, you had a superstar champion striker who was around the same size as Floyd and a 'notorious' trash talker. All he had to do was sell people that he could beat actually beat Floyd in a boxing match. Got him a 9 figure salary that he wouldn't have gotten fighting in the UFC over the next 5 years.

Gotta give Conor and Floyd props for what they were able to do.

Agreed 100%. You don't have to like or respect Floyd and Conor as people, but you have to respect their ability to make money. Props to Mayweather and Conor. Hope combat sports reign as King one day.

 

[car epic win]

hes only there because of Mayweather. he will never see that list again.
