Floyd Mayweather Visits Israel for the First Time Since War Started, Gets Custom Made ‘TMT Kippah’

It appears that Floyd Mayweather Jr. is currently embarking on a global vacation. Time and again, he has been sharing Instagram posts featuring photos and clips captured in various locations. In the latest update that he shared a few hours ago, he updated a few details of a stopover in Israel.

It seems to be Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s inaugural visit to Israel, amidst the backdrop of the recent conflict that has been raging since October last year. He wrote how the sojourn led to him receiving one of the most unforgettable memorabilia.

Floyd Mayweather Jr.: Grandeur, Tailer-Made

“Exploring the globe with my team on my annual world tour,” Floyd Mayweather Jr. stated. Then he further mentioned how this stage of his world tour brought him to Israel. Both he and his team were excited to learn more about the country, its rich history, and its culture. “This leg of my journey has brought me to Israel. We’re excited to learn more of its history and expand our knowledge.”

Then the former five-division champion urged everyone to share goodwill, support, and positive energy with each other. “Let’s spread love and positivity together!” Finally, he thanked a few for the beautiful, specially made ‘kippah’, the skullcap usually worn by orthodox Jewish men, with the letters ‘TMT’ inscribed on it. He said, “Thank you, @aishglobal, @aish.com, and @themanaju for my custom-made TMT Kippah.”

The first photograph shows Floyd Mayweather Jr. standing alongside another person. Together, they are holding a seemingly bejeweled ‘kippah’ inside a glass-enclosed gift case. The skullcap had ‘TMT’ written on the front. It seems the duo stood atop a roof with the most iconic landmark of the holy city of Jerusalem, ‘Temple Mount’, appearing in the background. In the second image, he is holding a decorated pendant chain necklace, accompanied by another person standing beside him.

On the other hand, the champion has been visiting major destinations for some time now. Earlier, he visited the French capital and also spent time in Iceland. Let us see how he spent time during these visits.

The High-Flying Champion

A previous post from the undefeated former champion featured him using the famed French train system to reach Paris. Joined by a few friends, they all seemingly enjoyed a session of cards. The boxing legend, it appears, had decided to give his pilot crew some rest.

Then he also shared video footage of him enjoying a dip in the hot springs of Iceland. A few other videos had him enjoying the ride on a snowmobile. Later, he’s seen walking on the icy roads of Aspen, Colorado.

The boxing legend, after his retirement as an active boxer in 2017, has been making news as a jet-setting exhibition fighter. He faced John Gotti III on June 11 last year. The fight, though, ended in the most controversial manner. Though rumors of a rematch with old rival Manny Pacquiao seem to have caught wind, details regarding the undefeated former champion’s upcoming fights remain largely inconclusive.
