    They are talking about high risk investments that are basically the kinds of things a venture capitalist would be doing, except they are being done by someone with no education or experience in the field.

    Often time, they guys that are talking them into the investments, have no intention of making the business a success either, they are interested in embezzling the money and lining their pockets.

    They are preyed on.

    You're right. Their background is a window into the potential investments that would draw their attention.

      Floyd just sounds like a bored guy with too much time on his hands. Calling TMZ into some random location so that they can interview him. "I'll fight Khabib and uh Conor again and maybe Pacquiao". uggggghhhh

            I'm sure the man can go broke, yes. But what we have here is nothing more than a man that simply loves money. He can't have enough of it. Where others might be content to have a nice wealth saved up, Floyd just wants more and more. That's why he does what he does. It's not because he's going broke, it's because he just can't have enough. If they offered him $100 mil to get in the ring he'll do it. But then again, would anyone do differently?

              He could go broke especially with his spending habits, but I can't say that he will. I don't know what kind of investments he's made.

              I'm surprised he hasn't had a reality show yet.

                Pretty much this...especially when it's for these no risk type fights. If it was to face Canelo or any top fighter...you better believe he's leaving that on the table.

                  As great as some boxers are at making money some of them are even greater at spending it. If a boxer just wants to live a very comfortable life the rest of their days they don't need this incredible fortune to do so. They just can't go crazy and spend money like a damn fool on stuff they don't need. One very nice house and a few nice cars should be enough for a normal human. Bradley and Ward are good examples. The both have easy fun jobs as commentators and will probably always be rich. There are lots of retired champs that stay rich like Foreman, Holmes and Hagler. They just don't buy airplanes, million dollar cars and 8 million dollar watches because they don't want or need them.
