Canelo fighting another champion, this year was the 5th highest-paid athlete in the world, not just boxing. His 3 fight deal with the PBC will make him over $100 million base over $200 million after PPV money. No boxer comes close, that's because he is the face of boxing!
Spend it, you will make much more.
And now he is investing in his business for longevity and financial freedom once he retires
Nice.

*CANELO X CRAWFORD 2024* 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I bet he had a bit more than a million, because he owed taxes on that first million too. That would have wiped out his savings. I like his choices though. He got a few wants out of the way, a few necessities, and tucked some away until the next payday too.
How much did he spend on the hair transplant??
