Floyd reportedly made about 200 million against Pac.

So that's about $15,085,610.84 in 1945 dollars (according to Inflation Calculator). Do you think Sugar Ray Robinson, Jake Lamotta, Willie Pep, ect ever got a 15 million dollar payday?

Floyd reportedly has a base fee of 32 million.

So that's about $2,400,288.30 in 1945 dollars. Do you think Sugar Ray Robinson, Jake Lamotta, Willie Pep, ect ever got a guarenteed 2.5 million for one fight?

In 1975, Foreman and Ali reportedly got 5 million each to fight the Rumble in the Jungle. In 2015 dollars that's still only $22,178,252.79 - 10 million short of Floyd's minimum guarantee.
