“$18 Million for Shiny Hard Glass and Metal That Tells You the Time”: Floyd Mayweather’s Past Extravagant Purchase Still Raises Eyebrows Among Fans

Floyd Mayweather is the richest boxer to ever grace the ring. After headlining 5 out of the top 10 biggest pay-per-views of all time, Mayweather has a net worth of $1.3 billion. His relationship with abundant wealth has been well documented. During his career, the 50-0 boxer changed his nickname from “Pretty Boy Floyd” to “Money Mayweather.” And it would be fair to say that Mayweather has lived up to his nickname. On his social media account, Mayweather frequently shares his luxurious assets. From super-yachts, and multi-million dollar mansions, to private jets and supercars, ‘TBE’ has it all.

However, he has a deep-rooted passion for collecting luxurious watches. He is also the proud owner of Jacob and Co. Billionaire III watch. Jacob and Co. are an American luxury accessories brand. Many celebrities and athletes are spotted wearing their luxurious watches. The Billionaire III watch in particular lives up to its name as only the ultra-rich can afford it. The watch is priced at a whopping $18,000,000. Mayweather, in an interview, was wearing this prized possession and was asked about the same. After revealing the price of his timepiece, the interviewer was stunned and so were the fans.
