    Money Got Not: Floyd Mayweather plans mammoth yard sale

    Money Got Not: Floyd Mayweather plans mammoth yard sale
    by Michael Marley

    Burglar Johnny Brassballs should be indicted, not invited to Mayweather Yard Sale! (TMZ)
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    If this keeps up they will be calling him Money May Not or Money Pay Not.

    Or how about Money Got Not?

    If his pockets keep on leaking, Floyd Mayweather Jr. will be asking for a loan, not a fight, from Manny Pacquiao.


    Now comes the hot word, as evidenced on Ebay, that Floyd has been forced by financial problems to auction his Cadillac Escalade limousine to the highest bidder.


    Maybe Manny Pacquiao should buy it and give the limo to one of his lackeys just as a symbolic gesture of how he is in the bucks up position while Pretty Boy is bucks down.


    I’m hearing persistent rumors that the economically troubled Mayweather is preparing a July 4th Yard Sale on the grounds of his Las Vegas mansion and the sales pitch is “Everything Must Go” and “No Reasonable Offer Refused.”


    Mayweather sidekick Laughing Lenny Ellerbe will act as the auctioneer at the yard sale. WBC title belts and other trinkets will be marked down from their usual $39.95 retail price in this once in a lifetime (Mayweather hopes anyway) offering.

    Given the date, Ellerbe will wear a red,white and blue Uncle Sam costume while head trainer Roger Mayweather, if not incarcerated at the time, will wear his always comical ‘I AM NOT AN IRS AGENT’ sweatshirt.

    The real ***el of the Mayweather Estate, the prestigious universally recognized BOXING'S BEST POUND FOR POUND SYMBOLIC BELT, will not be up for purchase as it is now dusty and musty with the current owner of the current belt believed to be living in some Asian archipelago.

    "We thought that the pound for pound diadem would be worth millions but it's all dusty and musty now," said a Meayweather brokesperson named I.O. Plenty.

    Word just in that bosom buddy and running partner, rap star Fitty Cent, will be there and will be personally selling an autogrpahing some of his CDs at--get this, you G Unit followers--a special price of 49 cents. Imagine only 49 Lincoln pennies and you go home with some musical classics signed by a guy who cannot spell "fifty cents."

    Adding some flair to the sale will be the Al Haymon-arranged muscial appearances of golden oldie groups, Two Degrees and The Three Tops. Mayweather's adviser, who once brought in $90 million in one year of concert promoting, explained that Floyd could not afford the appearance fee for the Three Degrees or the full Four Tops of Motown fame. There is also an outside chance the Four Stairsteps may show.

    As a sideshow to the Mayweather Yard Sale, Floyd Senior will be hawking Ricky Hatton Official Souvenirs at cutrate prices. This Hatton memorabilia sale will be divided, like his Pacman fight, into two short rounds.

    Unfortunately, at least $7 million worth of gaudy ***elry which was pilfered by a team of gutsy cat burglars (led by a suspect named “Johnny Brassballs” according to gossip site TMZ) cannot be offered because all that is still in parts unknown.

    Law enforcement officials say that finding the crooks who took Mayweather’s loot is not the highest priority in Vegas which continues to be beset by murders and other drug crimes.

    Further evidence of Mayweather’s damaged wealth came when he allegedly reneged on the purchase of an $8.5 million mansion on Miami’s celebrity enclave, Hibiscus Island.

    A Florida developer filed suit against PBF and Mayweather Promotions, a Nevada limited liability company, charging that the contracted for $850,000 down payment was never paid.


    As a further enticement to get bodies onto the Mayweather grounds to inspect the merchandise, Floyd Sr. is putting his unique collection of historic bottles of Mountain Dew up for grabs.

    The bottles, like Poppa Floyd's brash and incessant prefight words about how Hatton would decimate Pacman, are completely empty.

    Just to pitch in, Oscar De La Hoya and the Golden Boys will be selling cover stories, inside stories and of course ratings in their house organ, their boxing Wurlitzer, The Ring magazine.

    Those wanting to see the advance catalogue for the big alfresco sale can phone 1 800 BROKE AS A JOKE or go to the dedicated website which is www.IRStaxleviespenatliesreallysuck.

    If Floyd is about to go broke then it doens't matter how much he'll earn in his comeback. He'll be broke in a few years again.

    It's simply unbelieveable that people who has earned the kind of money Floyd, Holyfield etc. has earned, doen't make sure to have some retirement scheme setup. Surely they can afford the best accountant out there.

          Hence why Manny Pacquiao will be the most well off fighter in boxing's history after retirement.

          Because Pacquiao is asian. And you know they dont mess around with money.

              Lifestyle flashy right? Mr Aka Look how much money I got in this dufflebag. Have you seen that clip? Floyd's persona will get him broke if he keeps fcking around. He can learn a thing or two from 50 Cent.

                well Manny shows humility, floyd is the opposite always boasting, who do you think would take care of their money more? Besides people love Manny because of his humility, his people will take care of him even if he doesn't have as much $ as we think he does

                  I haven't seen that particular clip as I cannot see yank tv, but the way he flashes his money is welldocumented. Still it might be staged and scripted cash hand-outs so I wouldn't really put too much into that.

                  However if he doesn't pay his taxes and buys several insanely expensive cars and boats then I can understand him being in need of funds.
