Absolutely not. He still has Pacman and Oscar and Canelo money. All has him on an allowance. Floyd will never have more than 50 million in his account at once, unless it came from past fights, but not those big mega fights.Comment

the canelo - golovkin winner would be way too much for mayweather at this stage. the guy is 40 and boxed as a pro for 20 years.
you know it, i know it, he certainly knows it. the guy would still be boxing and making millions against the best if he could. instead, he made his millions against connor mcgregor, a debutant.Comment

It had just been suggested that Floyd's visits to Grand Rapids could be pinpointed through an uptick in county sales tax revenue when he calls me over. He looks around to make sure nobody is watching before holding out a slip of paper cupped in his right hand. It is a bank slip, and Floyd is watching me watch it as my eyes attempt to focus on the balance. I look at the numbers spread out across the thermal paper. I had heard that Floyd does his banking the old-fashioned way: going inside, talking to a real-life teller. He is also known to be a big proponent of maximum liquidity. Still, the amount of digits spread across the bottom-right corner doesn't seem possible.
I look up to see Floyd smiling. He begins to laugh. I say something unintelligible about too many numbers. I'm not sure what prompted this. Perhaps he mistook my look of fatigue for disapproval? Given his spending habits, is he concerned with pre-empting the inevitable talk that he will end up broke? Or is it simply one more example of the man's hubris? I look down one more time to make sure I got it right. And yes, it's right there, 11 numbers long.
There is more than $123 million in Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s bank account.
He nods, folds the slip and says, "One account, baby."

This was 6 1/2 years after the De La Hoya fight, but before the Canelo, Pacquiao, and McGregor fights. I'd say he's sitting on somewhere between one half to three quarters of a billion dollars.Comment

Conor beat him until he gassed, he got outboxed by Conor. And this confirms he believes he lost the fight. Conor knocks him out in the rematch.Comment
