Mayweather has passed Tiger Woods as the highest-paid athlete of the year, the first time since 2001 that Woods hasn't had the Forbes.com distinction.
Mayweather, who made $85 million for two fights last year, is currently serving a three-month jail sentence in Las Vegas for domestic battery.
Boxer Manny Pacquiao is second on the magazine's list at $62 million from earnings and endorsements. Pacquiao lost his WBO welterweight title to Timothy Bradley earlier this month.
