no need to pay for this fight as there were lots of places online offering free links....wasn't Floyd in trouble with the IRS? Most reports said he is making $10M with 50% of the ppv take while the other guy is at $250k with a 10% take
That 10% take could be pretty large, especially because he's an influencer.
"I’m the only person you know that can do a fake fight and get a 100 M’s (millions)," he said walking off the stage. "I could do legalized sparring and get 100 M’s."

They said before the fight ever began that it wasn't a real fight and there could be no winner.
He said in an interview he would just entertain the crowd.
Nobody outside of promotion purposes ever gave that credit for being a real fight, and only paul within the promotion acted like it was, but that's what he does, plays fake on youtube.
Now when Tyson fought Jones Jr., they blurred the lines and didn't declare the overall fakeness of it until the end. That was an issue because of the live betting markets during that fight. Triller got some heat.
Players and books learned a lesson there with these fake fights.
