Manny Pacquiao made it to the 100 World’s Most Powerful Celebrities for the second straight year on a list made byForbes magazine
.
.Pacquiao was listed at No. 55 with an earning totaling $42 million (roughly P1.9-billion) from fights with Puerto Rican Miguel Cotto and Ghanaian Joshua Clottey that covered the period July 2009 to June 2010.
His ranking is a rung better than last year.
Interestingly, Floyd Mayweather was ranked higher – No. 31 – with earnings reaching $65 million from fights with Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez and fellow US fighter Shane Mosley.Topping the list is TV show host Oprah Winfrey with $315 million, while the highest-rated athlete is golfer Tiger Woods with $105 million.
The ratings were based on the celebrity’s standing in earnings, TV/Radio, press, web and social rank.
Pacquiao and Mayweather’s ranking would take another notch higher in the event a proposed November 13 fight between the two of them materializes.
Their handlers are still in talks for the fight that will likely be staged in Las Vegas.
