Floyd âMoneyâ Mayweather Jr. is one of most well-known and richest sportspersons on the face of the planet. With a stellar boxing record of 50-0, Mayweather is known for his defensive game and tiring out his opponents before dispatching them with relative ease. He competed between 1996 and 2015, and made a one-fight comeback in 2017 to face MMA superstar Conor McGregor in a bout that was dubbed as âThe Money Fightâ.Â
During his career Mayweather won fifteen major world titles and became not only the richest, but also one of the most decorated boxers of all time. Even before turning professional, he had already won an Olympic bronze medal representing his country and three national Golden Gloves titles.
Even after being 21 years into his boxing career, Floyd Mayweatherâs net worth keeps blowing through the roof. His last fight against Conor McGregor reportedly generated $400,000,000.
If reports are to be believed, Mayweather's guaranteed disclosed paycheck was $100 million. However, Mayweather reportedly earned a whopping $275 million from the fight. His current net worth is estimated to be around $450 Million.Â
Having fought the who's who of the boxing world in Pacquiao, Canelo and De La Hoya to name a few, it is no surprise that he is valued so highly. He was also named Forbesâ Highest Paid Athlete of the last decade, finishing above the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Lebron James and Roger Federer.

It might come as a big surprise but Floyd isnât big on endorsement. His only notable endorsements have come during his fight vs Pacquiao when three brands, Hublot, Burger King and FanDuel had to shell out $1 Million each to be put on his boxing shorts.Â
Mayweather has told Fortune in the past that the reason he does not have endorsement deals is not because brands arenât interested, but because his baseline for entry is too high for most. Mayweather demands a minimum of $1 million. While that might be true, his past history with the law enforcements might also be a hindrance.Â
Floyd Mayweather InvestmentsÂ
Apart from making millions from his boxing fights, Floyd Mayweather also owns a promotional company, Mayweather Promotions, and his own apparel company TMT. In 2006, he paid $750,000 to opt out of his contract with his then promotion company, Top Rank.
To this day, Floyd negotiates his own contract and is pretty good at it. In 2007, he made $25 million in a fight against Oscar De La Hoya. He also invests in real estate, clothing lines, and marijuana dispensaries.

With big money comes big spending. This is true in Mayweatherâs case. He has one of the best car collections, if not the best, with almost a 100 cars at his disposal.
His collection include a Bentley Mulsanne, Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport, Ferrari 458 Italia, 599 GTB Fiorano, Enzo, 650S, Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, Lamborghini Murcielago, Porsche 911 Turbo, Rolls-Royce Phantom and a super rare  Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita which there are only two of in the world.Â
He also has an expensive watch collection which he is seen flaunting from time to time. Apart from this he also has two private jets that he can just hop on and go wherever he pleases. It is safe to say that the nickname âMoneyâ fits him perfectly.
