On September 25th, Floyd Mayweather threw hands with Mikuru Asakura, a Japanese MMA fighter from the organization Rizin. Speaking of Mayweather’s back-to-back exhibition fights around the world, Paul said,

“I think he needs money. I legitimately think he needs money. There is no way that you can keep up that lifestyle. Think about this, guys. He kept up the same lifestyle that he had while he was fighting – the cars, the jewelry, the rolling around with thirty people, private jets everywhere, vacations, spending millions of dollars on one watch. He’s a fuc*ing dumba**.”

According to Paul, billionaire Floyd Mayweather is in continuous need of money. Paul believes Mayweather is so attached to the lifestyle he portrays to the world that he must keep earning by doing exhibitions while he lives.

Jake Paul speaks about the one thing Floyd Mayweather cannot function without

Mayweather retired in 2017 after the ‘Money Fight.’ For him to be able to afford expensive jewelry, watches worth millions, and cars, he must keep performing. Well, so does ‘The Problem Child’ think.

“You can’t keep up that same lifestyle after you’re retired. And I think he realizes that and then had to get back in shape and started doing these exhibitions. Because he can’t function without that lifestyle, that is who he is. That’s his identity. It’s Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather. Floyd ‘Needs Money’ Mayweather,” Paul adds.

After Asakura, Mayweather wants to fight one more time before the present year sees an end. Reportedly, Mayweather will face YouTuber Deji. And he’s just as likely to take home a big bag after that fight too.
