Comments Thread For: Larry Holmes Feels Mayweather Will Lose All of His Money

LOL... Including assets Floyds Net Worth was estimated at over 900 Million and that was before the Canelo Fight. "They Pray and Prey on my Downfall" should be Floyds theme song. So many wanna see him fail if thats inside or outside of the ring.

I don't think this is accurate. I believe his net worth is around 170M.

I really hope everyone knows that the money he flushes in the toilet is fake and its for entertainment

just like the money he throws in the club.

he's worth less.

If he was worth that much he wouldnt be fighting.

yeah floyd isn't worth that much. he is rich tho.

i also think he knows, he won't be fighting forever which is why he is trying to grow his brand in order to maintain his lifestyle

if he succeeds at his brand/promotion company, he'll be ok.

Are you sure 900mil, you mean he had more money than Michael "Air" Jordan.

Fact: FM is very conservatively invested in many vehicles the public knows nothing about that he can not touch until he is 50, not like Larry, who's lost a building or 2,+ other "investments" in Easton 4 a guy that has no educational skills & a ton of illegitimate kids he needs 2 support...

Everyone tends to think this for some reason. Floyd has smart people around him that will not let him throw all of his money away. Tyson was surrounded by leaches including his own promoter.

The only red flag is his sports ******** and no one knows if he is up or down. And while it's not the smartest thing in the world to buy everything in cash, we know everything that he has he owns 100% (aside from his girlfriends of course).

Oh OK. Last time I was on that celebrity net worth site, they had him at 170m. But its been awhile. I don't really care either way. I just know its not 900M. Which is what I was responding to. Whatever it is, its a helluva lot more than I'm worth. And likely a helluva lot more than anyone on this site.

Floyd will be more than okay if he lives like an average Joe. But his trademark is Money. He'll lose a lot of money in his TMT venture. For a guy who is very dependent on GBP and Haymon's services, I don't think he'll make it. And why would GBP/Haymon need a retired Floyd when they can do it on their own? It's a business fraught with uncertainties. Getting and training future stars is not easy. I have no idea how TR and GBP made it this far. It involves some luck.

[maguirre]

He's proud to call himself "Money." He'll be throwing a lot of it when he retires. Otherwise, he might as well stop calling himself Money. He'll be miserable if he stops throwing them.

I think about 95% of fighters end up broke and that number is right on. It's very sad because when they have money they have all kinds of family and friends. Then when they retire or lose, they all disappear. The difference between Holmes/Manny/etc and Mayweather is that he has Al Haymon in his corner and if anyone can make sure Floyd has something when he retires it is that man.
