Floyd Mayweather who stands to earn at least $100million showed off a bumper cheque and his winning belt after he claimed his 50th win against UFC champion Conor McGregor.
Mayweather is guaranteed $100m, but the pay is expected to rise to something approaching $200m by the time ticket sales, pay-per-view income, and other royalties are factored in. In his post fight, Mayweather even suggested that sum could be even higher,'If I see an opportunity to make $300m or $350m in 36 minutes, why not?'
McGregor is also assured of $30m, still 10 times his highest purse in UFC but the pay is expected to rise to $75m (£58.2m) once the extras are added. Floyd Mayweather defeated Conor McGregor in the 10th round of their mega money bout on Saturday night to remain undefeated in his boxing career.
