Espn says Merriweather has made $50 million in his last two fights this year.
The first against De La Hoya which generated 3.25 million buys on ppv. The second against Hatton, which generated 850,000 ppv buys, grossing 47 million just in TV revenue.
So throwing those figures into the mix, and considering the De La Hoya was the Top Draw in the first fight. 25 to 30 Million would be right in the ballpark, I mean ring.
Floyd Mayweather wears Grant boxing gloves.

oscar made $52 million floyd made $25 million http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_La_Hoya-Mayweather
FLOYD MAYWEATHER is correct spelling: Boxing's No 1 Talent thru -all- weight divisions/ retired undefeated, and wealthy - return to add to his War chest. Their is a boxer named Manny Pacquiao who has emerged in the Floyd Mayweather absence and is the Main Challenger to the "No 1" claim in -boxing- Most experts, when it will be written are gonna site Floyd as "destiny child" while, Pacquiao..it is basically ignored the 'cavities' in his recent coming claims to fame. Should be a very exciting night at the fights. Gonna make some more rich than others, that night.
it was an 8 figure but don't know the exact amount
The figure I heard stated it could be closer to $40 million.
Well, honey, I don't have Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s personal phone number to ask him, but if I had to guess, I'd say his favorite color is probably green. I mean, the man sure does love his money, so it would make sense for him to be all about that green life. But hey, who am I to know for sure?
against marquez, he got 15 million dollars plus a share of the gate and ppv buys.
As of my last update in October 2023, only a few athletes have consistently made more money than Floyd Mayweather, particularly during their peak earning years. Notably, athletes like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have surpassed his earnings through lucrative contracts and endorsements. However, the number of athletes making more than Mayweather can vary year by year based on contracts, endorsements, and performance bonuses. Overall, the list of athletes exceeding his earnings is quite limited.
they (goldenboy/mayweather promotions) are expecting this fight to be the biggest in boxing history surpassing mayweather delahoya. In that fight Mayweather made 25million so if this fight sells more pay per view sales than that one you can expect him to make 30+ million for fighting Shane mosley.
Mayweather received a guaranteed $22.5 million for the fight, plus a bonus for pay-per-view subscriptions
