Even though the 46-year-old ring legend is coming off a four-year pro hiatus, he remains a top draw.

Despite the boxer-politician insisting that his passion for the sport made him return, it is no secret that he will be rewarded win or lose on Saturday.

In the same way, Pacquiao, www.marca.com reported, could earn no less than USD10 million after he challenges Mario Barrios for the World Boxing Council (WBC) welterweight title.

As a challenger, reports said the eight-division champion will get USD12 million plus a major percentage of pay-per-view sales.

That could bring his total earnings to around USD17 to USD18 million.

However, a chunk of it would go to taxes and other fees, making the USD10 million estimate a realistic number for “Pac-Man.”
