“Giant Stack of Burned $100 U.S. Bills”: Floyd Mayweather Makes Yet Another Ridiculous Purchase of $1.7 Million

Floyd Mayweather has amassed the most riches in the boxing industry as a result of his successful boxing career. He appreciates luxury items, and he just made a purchase that garnered interest among fans. In a scene from the Netflix show Narcos, which is based on the life of drug lord Pablo Escobar, he burns almost $2 million as his daughter feels cold in a hideout. Well, Mayweather recently did something similar. 

Floyd Mayweather recently won his fifth exhibition match. He competed against British YouTuber Deji in Dubai’s Coca-Cola Arena. Later, he was seen having fun while on vacation in Rome, Italy. He also went art shopping, and you won’t believe the collection he brought home.

Mayweather went to the Miami Art Basel. According to reports, the most notable work of art he purchased was a huge pile of burning $100 dollars bills. It also has a red Supreme duffel bag with money inside of it.

Floyd Mayweather spends $3.1 million in one hour 

Mayweather went to Art Basel two days before purchasing the Andy Warhol works and the stack of cash art. This time, he reportedly spent $3.1 million to purchase 10 or 12 works of art. It’s interesting to note that prominent figures like Sylvester Stallone and Leonardo DiCaprio were also there.

There is a reason why he is known as ‘Money’. His fans are aware of his penchant for ostentatious items. He enjoys luxury, including million-dollar residences, watches, automobiles, yachts, and private planes. Furthermore, there are reports that he will attempt a second billion-dollar run in 2023.
