Not sure that is fair considering that last illiterate sentence.

People seem to just to just accept this as fact because Floyd has repeated it so many times. In all likelihood he is probably a terrible businessman.

Uh he is worth less than half his total earnings and has pretty much all his money in one back account, ya think.
A good business man would have doubled his total earnings through investments, not be worth less than half.

Floyd should come out and admit he can't read well. Then do a bunch of promos to promote children's literacy and commit to improving his reading level.
Actually a solid idea...

Then, get into a ring and absorb repeated directed shots to the dome, erasing all the improviation he managed.

He earned $80m last year. Someone this impaired is going to go broke.

Agreed. Someone who can't read contracts or even know what type of legal documents he is signing is ripe to be taken advantage of. Very sad situation.

How can a boxer make that much? I thought it's popularity was on par with cancer.

Actually, the ones that get taken advantage of are the ones who try and spread their shite all over and not have control over it.
Dude has 80 million in the bank! Free and clear! And hell make another 30 million each time he fights!
You motherfrickers are the dumb ones thinking there's something wrong with his business plan.
This guy is a GENIUS at marketing himself in a sport that is low in popularity. He owns the sport, period!

The ones who get taken advantage of fall prey to wolves in sheep's clothing. See Mike Tyson and Don King for example.

No one who is smart would keep 80 million in a single bank account at a a single bank. That's just retarded.

Where did you study business planning?

He is a "genius" at one thing and one thing only and that's fighting inside a boxing ring.
The guy is 46-0. That's why he's marketed so well. It has nothing to do with tactics or strategy or anything else.

You don't know much about money if you think there is nothing wrong with the way he spends/saves/invests.
You are right about his Banking every fight, and he will make more. But if he doesn't start being smart with his money he will be broke in a few years after retiring
