Floyd was GUARANTEED 8 Million. And I'll Guarantee you, he won't make up to 23 million.
It took Oscar, to go past his prime, to make that kind of money. Oscar!!! The Golden Goose.

It won't generate that kind of money.

Floyd just wants easy money. When he could have gotten Guaranteed Money. In real life, and in a dirty business such as Boxing... YOU ALWAYS GO FOR LARGE AMOUNTS OF GUARANTEED MONEY. You don't go for money that people, dirty people, promise you'll make. Because it won't be 23 million. Oscar was barely paid 15 million, to fight the biggest non-heavyweight bout ever, in Trinidad fight, when he was in his prime. And you guys think Mayweather will break 23 million now! haha
He won't. DON'T EVER FALL FOR TALK!!! ESPECIALLY IN BOXING. NEVER BELIEVE ANYTHING UNTIL YOU READ IT IN WRITING AND THE FINE PRINT. If he was a risky business man, and a smart one at that, he'd take the Margarito money, WIN, then go for Oscar and make MORE money just based on his win with Margarito.

Especially if your supposed to beat a fighter like Margarito.
