Ali did it first.

Mayweather did it richest (which is why there are so many being talked about).

Floyd cant help himself but to seek attention to himself. Ali was the pioneer if exhibition bous that led to the creation of MMA. Shameless.

To be fair, Joe Louis and Sugar Ray were doing exhibition bouts long before Ali (and probably other before them.)

[BodyBagz]

There were exhibition fights during the depression era.

Still, May sets the example of the $$$$ end of it

[Combosnkos]

Tyson-Jones is a joke. With all the stipulations it's just a sparring session that you have to pay for to watch lol. At least floyds exhibitions are real fights
