"What's he gonna do if the cartel runs down on where he's at?" - Boxing fans express caution at Floyd Mayweather's risky display of cash in Mexico

Besides his reputation as one of the best boxers to grace the boxing ring, Floyd Mayweather has built a brand on the display of his extravagant lifestyle. The 47-year-old is scheduled to take on John Gotti III in a rematch on August 24, 2024, at Arena CDMX in Mexico City, Mexico.

Mayweather often projects an image of success and wealth and has deployed it as a promotional strategy in the lead-up to some fights. In line with that notion, the American boxer recently displayed heaps of cash with the caption, "Tune in to the cash cow this Saturday."
