+Sam Geee Well look Floyd makes 105million he barely gets barely hit XD he gets hit probably like 20 times per game.While Ronaldo gets some damn injury's too from either falling or damage from other players.
Does it even matter that everybody is under Floyd's earnings? Don't you think these top athletes are just thankful to be making what they are, doing what they love?
Willis Street Why do you think you can call Manny Pacquiao "ms.pacman." huh? you think you can stand 12 rounds in the ring with him? you can't even last ten seconds in his world bitch!
+WHO DARES how much money you make is not determined by how hard you work because anyone can work hard it's how how much skill your job takes and how many people can do it. 90% of people who play sports when they are in school would pursue a pro career if they could so there's a ridiculous amount of people trying to do it but only very few make it to the top.
3 of them are from Spain or play in soccer teams in Spain ! Proud of it...also Fernando Alonso, Pau Gasol, Neymar....And you americans doesnt even know where Spain is...(WE ARE NOT LATINS)
Don't shit yourselves, but there should be a cap to sports wages. When UK was in combat in afghan, the highest ranks could earn around 100k (gb pounds) whereas some football/soccer players could earn that in a week. Who does a better job? Someone who misses a penalty kick every few days or someone putting their life on the line to keep terror at bay? I'll leave you to chose.
Maybe a higher than average wage, but my arse do people like ronaldo deserve like 100 million + per year. I say cap sports pay 1 mil yearly for just the best of the best
Zoo Wee Mama no fuck you. you think donald fucking trump deserves all the money he has?? the athletes worked day in and out to develop the skills they have and sacrifice their body so fans can watch. sports are certainly important in society as they motivate humans to stay fit.
Humblenton Well duh they're paid from competition lol Floyd has been the highest paid for a couple years now once he retires someone else can take the throne.
baseball players don't have many endorsements because they are not as marketable. the top players for example Miguel Cabrera make only 2 million in endorsements.
i think because its popular only in US and Japan but not in other countries while all the sports in this list are pretty much spread out and football is the most popular sport worldwide
The top f1 driver only made 31 million. most of there money comes from salary. they are not as marketable. the top f1 divers like Fernando Alonso. Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian vettel make less than 4 million in endorsements. Michael schumacher was the exception to this, he made 35-45 million in endorsements in his prime.
that's because he signed a new contract this season. NFL contracts are different. the contracts are not fully guaranteed. so you get a big percent of the money upfront. for example if you sign a $100m contract you will get 30 million upfront plus a $10m signing bonus when you sign . Aaron Rodgers in the best paid NFL player on an annual basis
Yes, and Wilt Chamberlain said that all the basketball players should give him 10% of their checks since Jordan really opened up salaries for players to the astronomical figures of today. Chamberlain is on they YT video: Wilt Chamberlain on Conan O'Brien . Probably LeBron and Chris Webber will be next billionaires.
I don't get it how in the fuck is hitting a white small ball with a golf club putting it in a hole like all you do is stand i don't get how its a sport you don't move around at all just your arm and back like df
Lmao mayweather makes that in 2 fights thats only an hour imagine if he fought 3-4 times a year an plus he doesnt collect endoresmnets such as nike addidas or none of that shit imagine he did? He would shit on all athletes an probably make 150 to 200 million a year
lefloss562 Lmao mayweather will never fight 3-4 fight in a year because he will increase his chase of losing because he will fight every 4 months and wont get much rest. And second of all mayweather doesn't have any endorsements because mayweather is a very controversial person because of his past and domestic violence so brands don't want to sign him. and second boxers cant make very much in endorsements anyway because they only are in the spotlight a couple of times a year. Plus Cristiano ronaldo is way more younger and famous than mayweather so he will be making more in the future Dickhead!!!
@leomessi beast ur a fukn idiot i said imagine he fought 3-4 times a year? I know he wnt but imagine an second wen the fuk has ronaldo ever been at number one highest paid athlete? Never mayweather has for consecutive years jus until this year ronaldo made it to top 3 hes always been in the 4-8 after lebron, woods, kobe, etc an 3rd alot of boxers dnt have endorsments because of there promotional companies an most are hooked up with beer companies the 2 big ones being corona and tecate, maywether is the face of boxing wy wouldnt they want to sponsor him beacuse of passed issues?? Ur a fukin moron compaines dnt give a rats ass they care about money an mayweather likes to be his own boss an yada yada so he choses to be independent as a messi fan myself im surprised ur sukin ronaldos dick if i said "IF" mayweather was doin it like all other athletes wit promotional companies an jus fightin 3 times a year he would shit on everybody dumfuk ronaldo will only be number 1 wen mayweather retirs which will be in a year or 2 an by then messi should be paid higher then ronaldo good day kid
lefloss562 Companies do give a rats arse you moron. floyd has gone to prison for domestic violence . alot of companies dropped tiger woods after he cheated . and mayweather has been earning this kind of money in the final stages of his career . Messi and ronaldo are still in there 20's . when mayweather was in his 20's he was earning up to 10-20 million a year. and i never said that ronaldo was ever the highest paid athlete. and i am a lionel messi fan but earings are earnings this year. i hope messi earns more than ronaldo in the future and i hope he wins his 5th , 6th ballon dor. ronaldo and messi will earn more than mayweather next year if floyd ducks manny agian . because he recieved 32 million for maidana and if he fights anyone but manny again he will make 70-80 million max next year.
@leomessi beast so if the promotional companies give a rats ass then they will stop promoting messi because of his tax evasion problems?? Even tho its fukn stupid that he has such problems but frm ur piont of view they will release his contract because that is a very contraversial scene messi being one of the highest paid athletes avoiding taxes an may will retire in 2 years max until then he will be number 1 over ronaldo unless he has garbage fights vs khan an another hand picked opponent ronaldo will be on top but messi will surpass him anytime soon until then may is number 1 stats are stats
CR7 christiano ronaldo.Here the reason why Cristiano Ronaldo isn't going to leave Real Madrid, despite his recent falling out with the club: €1,000,000,000. That's the value of the buyout clause in Ronaldo's contract, according to Spanish media (via the Telegraph). Read more: www.businessinsider.com/ronaldo-buyout-billion-2012-9#ixzz3QomqoWz8
Haha nah. Men are just superior athletes. Go look at the highest paid models most of the are probably women. That's why we need the men's right movement.
Ronaldo plays like 60 matches a season makes 80 mill. Mayweather 2 fights 105 mill. WOW
+THE MASKED MANIAC Choose your careers wisely children
Yeah thats great but boxing can do some permanent damage to your brain
+Sam Geee Not if you're floyd
Hoping that's sarcasm
+Sam Geee Well look Floyd makes 105million he barely gets barely hit XD he gets hit probably like 20 times per game.While Ronaldo gets some damn injury's too from either falling or damage from other players.
TMT.
Watching this for school...
Does it even matter that everybody is under Floyd's earnings? Don't you think these top athletes are just thankful to be making what they are, doing what they love?
Pacquiao was ranked #11 $41M
Mayweather earned $285 Million in 2013
It's 2015
irs is the real mvp !!!!!!!!!
what about Manny Pacquio he is the second highest paid athlete
wrong year/season
mayweather still on top
Gincarlo Stanton signed a 13 year 325million dollar contract in 2014
Floyd maybe the richest of them but he also is the most boooring athlete of the world
Willis Street than why the fuck he is not accepting manny's challenge
squall leonheart
you don't need to bring races here man
Willis Street
and who gives a fuck what america sees??
Willis Street Why do you think you can call Manny Pacquiao "ms.pacman." huh? you think you can stand 12 rounds in the ring with him? you can't even last ten seconds in his world bitch!
Now you are just hating on Floyd cos he is undefeated. Klitchko's are very very boring but credit is due
i saw an add he said sponcered a person
Why do I look at this stuff? All it makes me do is think about how hard-working middle class folks continuously get screwed ...
How exactly do they get screwed? Because they didn't work hard enough to become athletes?
Abel Mendez. Must be a male groupie ....
+WHO DARES bishh at least you be making money unlike hundreds of people out on the street
Matthew Fisher. True that ... I do count my blessings ... but DAMN ....
+WHO DARES how much money you make is not determined by how hard you work because anyone can work hard it's how how much skill your job takes and how many people can do it. 90% of people who play sports when they are in school would pursue a pro career if they could so there's a ridiculous amount of people trying to do it but only very few make it to the top.
What about david beckhem and michel jordan?
How about Fernando Alonso or Sebastian Vettel?
Fernando was got 40M that season
Hi bro your info is wrong
After watching this video I better send my kids to a soccer school
U know mayweather was going to be number 1
3 of them are from Spain or play in soccer teams in Spain ! Proud of it...also Fernando Alonso, Pau Gasol, Neymar....And you americans doesnt even know where Spain is...(WE ARE NOT LATINS)
More then half the list are americans so stfu
Arturo Goitisolo MURICA
hmmm wow

But it's the industry, there's more money put into a football match and collecting more revenue than a military squad.
Yea, they make a ton of cash, but do these people deserve THAT much?
Maybe a higher than average wage, but my arse do people like ronaldo deserve like 100 million + per year. I say cap sports pay 1 mil yearly for just the best of the best
Zoo Wee Mama no fuck you. you think donald fucking trump deserves all the money he has?? the athletes worked day in and out to develop the skills they have and sacrifice their body so fans can watch. sports are certainly important in society as they motivate humans to stay fit.

Where is Phil Kessel
Kobe
+RedWingsFan - You know it... I forgot Sidney Crosby is on the list though...?? So are you a wings fan??
Giancarlo Stanton makes 325 million 13 year contract
Yeah, split it by 13 and it's the result. This is also counting sponsor and off-field earning
Mayweather is the "highest paid athlete" cuz he got a lot of money from the Pacqiao fight Ronaldo is actually the highest paid athlete right now
+Humblenton No hes not lol
yes he is
Its because they got paid a lot from that 1 fight
Humblenton Well duh they're paid from competition lol Floyd has been the highest paid for a couple years now once he retires someone else can take the throne.
No throne there, He just got paid a lot from that 1 fight that doesn't mean he makes the most right now
First of all Lionel is pronounced "LEE-ONEL" not "LYE-ONEL"
Kobe is retired sadly in 2015
How can it have 166,042 views when we have 7 billion people on the planet?
If scott Adkins was in MMA he'd be the most paid athlete xD
what about blake griffin??
Yeah Im pretty sure his net worth is like 92-93 million dollars
Blake griffin earned $23 million in 2014. he is No. 47 on the list. www.forbes.com/profile/blake-griffin/
It's $92.8 million dollars a year
This list was made in 2014. Keep that in mind.
Ashten Johnson la la
This is wrong because geincarlo Stanton is the most paid with 365 million
but we need money for everything we do and im all in for being rich wnd living the high life i could do it all day everyday
nICE
KG was the highest-paid in the world
David beckam would of been up their if he was still playing

David Beecham?
Wow they earn so much and average joe struggle's week to week , Life is funny

Notice how there's no baseball players :|
baseball players don't have many endorsements because they are not as marketable. the top players for example Miguel Cabrera make only 2 million in endorsements.

Andy Hooky tiger used to be number 1. he lost most of his sponsors when he got caught cheating.
Michael phelps net worth is 55 million.
They say meawather only fights 2 matches but remember he have to train before he fights so boxing is way header
yeah ronaldo is in this
I thought Ovechkin would be on this list?
or kane/toews but no life golfers get millions more for just hitting a goddamn small ball and BOOM 60 MILLION DOLLARS

This was very wrong bruh, you should check forbes, manny pacquiao was the second highest paid athlete next to mayweather 😂😂
+Villain l Clash of Clans its a joke, not a dick, dont take it so hard... 😂😂😂

Have they ever heard of F1?
The top f1 driver only made 31 million. most of there money comes from salary. they are not as marketable. the top f1 divers like Fernando Alonso. Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian vettel make less than 4 million in endorsements. Michael schumacher was the exception to this, he made 35-45 million in endorsements in his prime.
MATT RYAN MY TEAM YA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mj????
This clip is focused on active athletes. (not updated, 2014) MJ would be on top of a list of athletes with the highest net worths.
Soulja boy will be raps first billionaire only because he is representing the beast who came out the water in Revelation 13
Matt ryan?!? Are u kidding me?!?!
that's because he signed a new contract this season. NFL contracts are different. the contracts are not fully guaranteed.
so you get a big percent of the money upfront. for example if you sign a $100m contract you will get 30 million upfront plus a $10m signing bonus when you sign . Aaron Rodgers in the best paid NFL player on an annual basis
He get's paid like 50 -55
Of all these athletes Michael Jordan LOOKS like the wealthiest. There is just something about MJ that is very impressive even REGAL!
+2dasimmons OOOOPS! WHERE'S MICHAEL JORDAN?????

DimeSource dude mayweather is famous for his boooring fights and boooring charecter
Mariano Salvatore Mayweather is his own promoter, did you know he offered Manny 40 mill of his own money for them to fight each other???

Floyd isn't boring my man. U JUST dnt understand the science of boxing.
Michael Jordan ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
cristiano ronaldo #1
Wayne Rooney is def top 10, he makes 300,000 euros a week rofl.
rooney makes 300k a week which is $500k. so he makes $26m a year + $5m in sponsors = $31m total
so he's not in the top 10
He makes pounds not Euros
bikram lawati
i know. if he makes £300k a week. 300,000 x 1.6 = $480,000. So that 480,000 x 52 = $25,000,000 + 5,000,000 sponsors = $30,000,000
Yes and some of these people are making millions a week or better yet more then 300k a day
cristiano ronaldo is the most payed player
I'm a Cr7 guy
Does anyone no who me is with 1 billl tf
Ronaldo
The fact that they are no female athletes shows why we need feminism in this world. Equality for men and women

Haha nah. Men are just superior athletes. Go look at the highest paid models most of the are probably women. That's why we need the men's right movement.
CR7
Cristiano Ronaldo the (CR7) ,he have maybe 600 million euros which is $724 Million dollars . he's top 2.
