    Default Floyd supposedly agreed a $100m, 4 fight deal with Don King

    According to a source on The Truth Boxing Hour.

    Would explain why he looked so happy and all smiles at the Alexander/Kotelnik fight.

    Get your money man! Good for Floyd. He's 33 and these paydays won't be there soon.


    So I guess he's ditching Ellerbe and GBP?

    Apparently mate yeah. I assume Don King has persuaded him that he is a better boxer than he is promotor, rapper etc and that it's where he is going to make all of his money. It's some deal for Floyd to be honest, would've been silly to turn that down.

    I also think the Pacman/Floyd fight will defo be sorted for next year. Don King will be seeing the $$$ a mile off. Then, after the Pac fight, inevitable that he will fight Devon Alexander as well. Not sure who the other two fights will be against but you can bet your bottom dollar he won't be fighting any GoldenBoy fighters anytime soon.

    I'm no expert on prizefighting, but I think Floyd would make ~$50 million vs Pac. Why is he worried about getting to 100 million?

    Finally the two biggest buffoons in boxing have teamed up. Now if we thought Ellerbe was an annoying shit, we have Don King. The man who shamelessly ripped of dozens of boxers throughout the years. Wait a minute, why should I be mad!??

    I hope he does Floyd like he did so many other fighters in history. And I also this this topic has little credibility. Floyd will not fight 4 more times, even in the next 5 years.
    "Floyd needs to inject Xylocaine into his balls to gain the courage to fight Pacquiao."

    - and I quote from some random guy on the internet

    Hey, don't shoot the messenger. I agree he won't fight four more times. I'd bet he only has two more fights left in his career.

    The 100m is probably just to promote the fights.

    He'll still get extras per each fight I expect
