Following a glittering boxing career of over two decades, Floyd Mayweather is not just a world champion pugilist. His outer ring stances have turned him into an entertainer and a smart businessman, expanding his reign into several other ventures.

During his rise to the top in the boxing world, Mayweather understood the business and the worth he carried. So, he didn’t hesitate to split with Bob Arum’s Top Rank Promotions in 2006 to stage his own fights. Relying on the move, Mayweather, who earned enormous checks, became one of the richest boxers ever.

That said, the 44-year-old made smart investments. While the five-division champion continues to accept fights, his business ventures imply he doesn’t need to fight for money anymore. Here’s a look at Floyd Mayweather’s business ventures that made him one of the richest athletes of all time.
