| Peyton Manning the 10th Highest Paid Athlete IN THE WORLD!
This is pretty impressive considering that Football isn't as popular/non existent, in the rest of the world than other sports. #10 Peyton Manning - Kurt Badenhausen - Forbes

| I don't understand how the top two paid athletes are boxers. Almost everyone I know watches football. And I can understand how tennis and soccer dominate the global market. | |

| I'm surprised his endorsements are only $10 million, Rebook, Sprint, Oroe cookie, ESPN, Mastercard are some I know he does and probably missed few others. | |

So he is going to make quite a bit just from the fight. Then throw in endorsements. | |

And I can understand how tennis and soccer dominate the global market. | “Money” Mayweather is the world’s highest-paid athlete, thanks to mega paydays for fights against Victor Ortiz ($40 million) and Miguel Cotto ($45 million). He has been a part of the four biggest non-heavyweight pay-per-view events in boxing's history. Mayweather maximizes his earnings by also acting as his own fight promoter through his company Mayweather Promotions.
in 2 fights he made 85 million dollars! 2 fights!
this is a little misleading to me, its not based on salarys but mainly endorsements.
