How Floyd Mayweather spends his money: There’s a reason why boxer Floyd Mayweather is nicknamed “Money.” For one, he rakes in extraordinary fees for his boxing matches, winning world titles in five different weight classes and retiring with an astonishing record of 50 wins to 0 losses, beating a record set by the great Rocky Marciano. However, Mayweather also spends money at an extraordinary speed and is known for his extravagant lifestyle and his social media photos with piles of hundred dollar bills. It’s no wonder that in 2017, Mayweather was enticed back into the ring for the most expensive boxing match ever—fighting Irish UFC athlete, Conor McGregor, in Las Vegas. Mayweather won the fight, taking home a $100 million prize, but that was only part of his take-home pay for ten rounds of action. Both fighters would also have received a portion of the pay-per-view fees—the fight was bought by 4.3 million people in the U.S., generating over $600 million.

And yet, Mayweather seems to be burning through his money like nobody’s business, and there are even some who predict that the ultimate spendthrift could end up burning through his entire fortune. The regular expenses on this list might go some way to explaining how…
1. Private Jet Maintenance (Including $250,000/Year On Fuel For Each Jet)
As many of us know by now, one of Mayweather’s prized possessions is his private jet. Actually, make that his two private jets. The fighter bought the first one years ago but splashed out another $30 million on a second Gulfstream III just last year in 2017, so that his entourage could also travel in style. He apparently refuses to fly with them and previously had to pay expensive monthly bills to fly them around the world on chartered jets. Private jets aren’t just expensive to buy. They are also very expensive to run, with Mayweather spending a reported $250,000 a year on each jet for fuel and maintenance.
2. His $200 Million Yacht’s Monthly Fuel, Maintenance, Crew And Bubbly
Mayweather recently splashed on yet another of the ultimate status symbols for the obnoxiously rich and famous—a luxury yacht. According to the tabloid press, the boxer spent $200 million on the mega yacht and was pictured enjoying life at sea with a bevy of beauties sailing offshore the exclusive resort of Los Cabos in Mexico. Yachts are another expensive habit, with monthly fuel, maintenance, mooring, and crew costs adding up to thousands of dollars—never mind keeping it stocked with the best champagne and finest food for your ocean-going parties with female fight fans…
