Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather Rejects Rumors That He Needs Money

[hugh grant]

Humans don't live long enough to squander 600 million. He's only stopped earning money for 4 years so how much can he spend?
Floyd might want more money like most people. But he hasn't lost it like tyson

These kids think they deserve what others have. That don’t know how to work for anything. That’s the problem.

Boy oh boy is that right, they think they are owed something without ever having to earn it, and they blow a gasket when they hear the word NO.

7 figures monthly wow. Whether you like him or not everyone in boxing can learn something from him. And even people who are not in sports can learn a lot about hard work and smart business from him. As of right now he can make a ton of money doing anything and everything. Personally I would like to see a book on his career/life because a lot of people don’t know the real/full story. Especially the early years. And there’s so many unauthorised ones I’ve seen. I want the real thing, and he could probably sell than for $20-30 and millions of people would pay for it. People saying he needs money are straight haters. The guy has businesses and real estate all over the place. Even in retirement I reckon he’s earning more than even the best fighters do when they’re active. He has a lot going on and is extremely smart.

I don’t see him boxing again. The only possible way would be if McGregor had a couple of huge wins and got back on top. But at this point I’d rather see TBE be done with it and live comfortably. It says a lot about the impact he had on the sport that fans are still desperate to see him come back at 43, but he gave us 20 years of greatness so I’m happy with that. Stay retired and live comfortably champ. Thanks for all the great victories and entertainment over the years. I remember when people like Brian Kenny (he must feel so ****** now) used to say “he’s ducking Hatton, Mosley, Pacquiao, Cotto” and it’s kinda funny now to look back at those interviews and fights. He fought everyone we wanted and more and dominated every single one of them and made it look easy.

Where do you suppose those 7 figures per month comes from?
The only business venture Floyd went into (as far as he’s actually detailed it) was opening up strip clubs.
Seriously? Strip clubs is what you go after when you’re banking 8/9 figure paychecks a fight?

I love Floyd as a boxer and consider him the greatest talent ever. But Floyd is no businessman and you are silly for actually believing him.

One of the investments he brags about is the $26 million dollar hike he bought in LA. What’s the return on that investment? Absolutely nothing. Taxes alone on that property is over $100k a year.

Humans don’t squander that kind of money and then you write Tyson lost it all. Tyson’s career earnings was $300 million. He lived long enough to squander $300 million and you think $600 is impossible to squander?

People suggesting Floyd's broke are just clueless. If anything Floyd probably spends less now. Hes not in the limelight like before and simply put has less to do. All the junk he wouldve wasted money is already purchased...he already has 45 diamond watches and necklaces and custom Gucci clothes and etc. He already has 20 cars that are only 100 in world. He has multiple homes.

Floyd wont go broke but probably will also never be a good trainer and he'll probably never stop talking about himself in the 3rd person. Cant be a good trainer when you're so consumed by yourself

[radiotracer]

Dam shame. I didn’t think he would go broke this quick. With his spending habits and the stock market it was bound to happen. He should have taken advice from Sugar Ray Leonard and Larry Holmes.

[Kannabis Kid]

I mean the guy does buy 18 million dollar watches I don't care how much money you make that's a ****load to spend on a watch so it wouldn't surprise me if he went through half of his money I still think he has enough to live comfortably but his kids seem to live a lavish lifestyle driving Bentley's and rocking AP's and none seem to have anything going for them as far as careers so we will see how long that cash flow will last.

When I was in Vegas everybody said Girl Collection was wack didn't even bother checking it out no offense to Floyd he's a legend but that obviously wasn't his best venture.

[MartialMind]

A sum over 600m just doesn't disappear. I can't say to know a great deal about his private life or his business dealings but bits I've read he's done alright...

These people saying whatever know he's short on cash how exactly?,
What happened, did Floyd stop throwing his money about in a club one night and made his hangers on pay for themselves, now all of a sudden he's skint?..

If he is skint then so what? He exhibition fights some part timer in Asia or Middle east and makes an absolute fortune only mortals like ourselves dream of making in a lifetime...

Tyson lost 300 million and Floyd looks like a bigger spender and gambler than even him.

Tell that to Mike who earned 300 million in his career but was millions in debt by 2000.

People don't realize how much financially illiterate people making tens of millions can squander.

Please do your homework before making yourself look foolish. The guy has made more money than any athlete in all of sports period and you are saying he doesn’t have businesses and isn’t a businessman. Just stop it lol. He’s the smartest businessman in all of sports. He can make millions just off appearances alone and has millions in commercial real estate too. Also has his own gyms coming and invested in start ups too. All this is documented. Also has Mayweather Promotions I could go on and on. You’re saying we shouldn’t believe him? lol why would he lie about that? Like he cares what anyone else thinks.

He has the TMT/Mayweather Promotions clothing line which makes ridiculous money and he owns parts of a lot of different companies with Haymon including the PBC. You are really starting to sound like a hater but then you say he’s the greatest talent ever in the same post, make up your mind, do you like him or not? Lol.

Haters want to see him go broke so badly it’s funny but just like in the ring you will never see it. He’s too smart.
