I don't believe Floyd Mayweather for a second. He says he's worth $300 million in one interview and $600 million in another. I think he's broke and in debt otherwise why would he continue to rack up interest and penalties with the IRS?

The guy that comes to mind with a big name/image in boxing was Muhammad Ali. He sold the rights to his name image for $50 million to the company that produces American Idol in 2006. I think Pacquiao will surpass that. I read they are showing the fight through out the Philippines in movie theaters and most were already sold out at $10-$20 a seat. I wonder how that stacks up against blockbuster movies?

For sports figures to get enforcements, they need to have a good image. A bad image might sell some products well, like beer, cig. redbull...
