The prestigious American magazine Forbes has published the list of athletes who have obtained the most income from 2010 and so far with the American boxer Floyd Mayweather who has poured into his bank accounts totaling $915 million.

After Mayweather for their assets ranks the two world football stars; Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messie.

Ronaldo is the second with 800 million dollars, with Portuguese making more out of the field than inside it because of contracts with Nike and social networks, being the most attending athlete in Instagram and Facebook.

And in this decade the Argentinian could earn $750m. Unlike Ronaldo, Messy benefits more from his performance in the playing field, since nobody pays more than the one he activates.

Forbes classification follows with the NBA star Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron James with 680m euros earned in the last 10 years.
