Floyd Mayweather's $23M profit from real estate—Is he the smartest investor in sports history?

Floyd Mayweather is calculative of every punch he pulls and every dime he spends. That’s the reason the American boxer built an impressive boxing career and utilized his success inside the ring to rack up heavy money bags. He diversified his revenue sources as his career progressed, and in his long list of smart investment ventures, his real-estate liking takes the first spot. The former world champion has a couple of mansions to his name, befitting his name and his lifestyle. But nothing stands out like his Beverly Hills mansion.

When did Floyd Mayweather buy his mansion in Beverly Hills?

When Mayweather, 47, fought Conor McGregor in 2017 and handed him a KO defeat, he took home close to $300 million. He had enough cash to splash, and he made a smart investment of buying a mansion in Beverly Hills with a price tag of $25 million. An additional $500,000 for the high-end furnishings took the cost to $25.5 million before Floyd Mayweather moved in. But when you take a look inside the prime property, it is a jaw-dropping experience.

Inside Mayweather’s luxurious mansion worth once $25 million

Nestled in the heart of Beverly Hills, this French modern-style mansion catches your eyes with its white paint job that perfectly justifies its grandeur and modern elegance. Originally built in 1992, spanning over a stunning 15,096 square foot area, Nile Niami retouched it in 2015, and you will accept that he did a splendid job. When you look at the two-story main house, it has six bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. Additionally, lavish amenities like an Italian-imported gourmet kitchen, chandeliers, vast entertainment rooms, and mirrored fireplaces leave you in awe.

When you go outside, you see a black-and-white striped marble pool deck that complements a spacious pool and pool house. If you are a guest, then the guesthouse is a world of its own, including a gym, a private theater, a staff suite, and a four-car garage. But what’s more comforting than the master suite, offering dual baths and a treetop terrace for serene mornings?

Have an interesting take?

Mansion Global revealed that the Michigan native has put his Beverly Hills mansion on sale and has put a whooping tag of $48 million on it. The mansion has undergone a significant makeover under Mayweather, and the listing promises more than just a beautiful, grand home. If you are a potential buyer, then you can inherit the prestige of owning a mansion once owned by a former star athlete, adding a unique layer of allure to the deal. Not to mention the chances of running into celebrities more often than not. If all goes well, Mayweather stands to make a whopping $23 million in profit from flipping the house. However, Floyd Mayweather hasn’t been lucky with his investments every time.

When ‘Money’ sold his mansion at a loss! His property portfolio

While Mayweather has a penchant for Miami Beach houses, his experience of it has been mixed so far. He had to recently sell a Miami Beach house for $6.25 million at a $1.5 million loss. Interestingly, The Post previously reported that Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy had occupied the mansion most recently. But it didn’t deter the 50-0 record holder, as he has acquired an $18 million mansion on Miami Beach’s exclusive South Coconut Lane. If you prefer space and have a thing for a rooftop deck, then this 10,853-square-foot home spanning three stories with an extravagant 5,000-square-foot rooftop deck has you covered.

It houses a private dock capable of accommodating boats up to 100 feet, complete with a center console lift and floating dock, making it a dream home for any boating lover. And if you believe that’s the end of Mayweather’s list of paradise homes, you might have to scroll more.

Apart from these two mansions in Miami and Beverly Hills, Mayweather also has another mansion in Las Vegas. While his Vegas pod is valued less at $10 million compared to his other two properties, it is just as impressive as it gets. You can list its 11 bedrooms, 14 bathrooms, multiple guest houses, a massive courtyard, and 20-car underground garage, making it a worthwhile investment.
