Floyd Mayweather and Joe Rogan are among the most talked about personalities in the combat sports world. Mayweather’s spectacular boxing career, which he began more than 20 years ago, has helped him establish himself as a well-known sportsman on a global scale. Rogan, on the other hand, is not an athlete. He does have some combat background and is an accomplished UFC commentator and podcaster. Both have amassed substantial wealth as a result of their successful careers, but the boxer’s multi-billion dollar deal dwarfs Rogan’s enormous deal.

Floyd Mayweather brought huge crowds to boxing arenas for his fights. Whenever there is a discussion about the most lucrative fights in history, Mayweather’s PPV events always top the list. It even earned him the moniker ‘Money’.
Furthermore, Mayweather is among the few boxers who have entered the business world and excelled in it. The boxer has made some smart investments, which made him the richest boxer in the world. The 45-year-old was in conversation with Forbes, where he mentioned, “Now I own nine skyscrapers. I’m constantly building, building. I got hotels all around the country. And, right now what I’m working on right now, is with my business partners from Miami. We’re working on a 20 billion dollar deal.”

The UFC color commentator also hosts his podcast, ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’. On his show, he has welcomed several noteworthy guests, including Robert Downey Jr., Elon Musk, and Mike Tyson. Rogan’s podcast is among the most well-known in the world thanks to his expertise, style of speaking, and ability to clearly explain concepts.
As per reports, streaming giant Spotify has offered Joe Rogan a whopping $200 million to host the show on its platform. This is one of the biggest deals for hosting a podcast. However, Rogan’s agreement with Spotify seems like a spare change in comparison to Mayweather’s “20 billion” deal.
