How do you think a forty-six-year-old billionaire would be spending money? Buying stocks, high-value properties? Floyd Mayweather Jr. probably has his hands already digging deeper into those opportunities. But what about the rest of the days? When he’s free from boxing and other responsibilities? Today, fans got answers to those questions after getting a glimpse of how an average day goes for the uber-rich former champion.
There’s a reason why the moniker ‘The Money’ stuck with Mayweather Jr. For two decades, he was the most outstanding boxer worldwide, taking home paychecks that grew with each fight.
