The Super Bowl always guarantees certain things. Entertainment, action, a magnificent half-time show, and Floyd Mayweather getting into crazy wagers that normal people can’t even fathom. Every year when Super Sunday rolls around, the boxing legend shows us mortals why he is called ‘Money’. Super Bowl LIX was no different as the Philadelphia Eagles tried to stop the Kansas City Chiefs’ three-peat and take revenge for their 2023 loss.

For Mayweather, it was once again a choice between either choosing Patrick Mahomes or going against him. It was quite a tough choice as the last time the undefeated boxer wagered against ‘Showtime’ and chose Eagles, he lost a $10,000 wager. But this time around, he hit the game right on the nose.

Floyd Mayweather’s revenge

Despite suffering a loss by waging against Mahomes last time, the ‘Money Mayweather’ did not care. He chose Jalen Hurts to avenge his 2023 loss; and as luck would have it, it was the right decision. Eagles completely outclassed the Chiefs and won the NFL Championship 40-22. It was a complete domination to kill the Kansas City Chiefs’ reign.

It looked like Floyd Mayweather already knew the script as he made two wagers on the Eagles. He backed ‘The Birds’ 1/2 point against the Chiefs in the first half and put a $40,000 bet on them at odds of minus-135. Well, as the Eagles opened up a 24-0 lead with a minute to play in the first half, it allowed the 50-0 boxer to earn a profit of $29,629. The second bet was on the result of the game and once again, the 47-year-old put $30,000 on Eagles at the odds of minus-103. This wager netted him a profit of $29,126. Not bad at all, wouldn’t you say?

As everyone knows, Floyd Mayweather is not a modest man. While most people like to hide such earnings, the legendary boxer unabashedly flaunted his profits on Instagram. He uploaded both winning tickets on his Instagram profile, showing evidence of his total earnings of $128,755. While it was not as big as his last year’s wager, where he took home $203,000, it was still a good day at the office for ‘Money’ and of course the Eagles. We can’t say the same thing about Patrick Mahomes, though.

Patrick Mahomes horror show

After winning their third straight AFC Championships, the Chiefs were looking to create history and win their third straight Lombardi trophy. Everything was riding on the back of their star QB and fans were still considering Kansas City as the top dogs. Alas, it was not meant to be, as all the stars were aligned for the Eagles perfectly.

It all started with Hurts finding the end zone in the first quarter, followed by Jake Elliott adding three more points with a field goal. From then on, there was no turning back as the Chiefs were left chasing the shadows of the Eagles’ players. And where was Mahomes in all of this, you ask?

Well, the Eagles completely neutralized the star quarterback as he was intercepted twice even after racking up 257 yards. Mahomes somehow managed to score three touchdowns, but the effort was too little, too late. The Eagles took their long-awaited revenge for their Super Bowl LVII loss as the Chiefs stood there lifeless.

In the end, it was a historic night and might have been the easiest money that Floyd Mayweather ever made. Who was your pick as the Super Bowl LIX winner? Let us know your thoughts down below.
