Boxing great Floyd Mayweather Jr. is known for his love for cars. His garage is full of opulent automobiles, and now he has added one more to that. However, it is not for himself, he has gifted it to his mother. Interestingly, many fans might not know that the Mayweather family has a tradition for the 4th of July. The family has been carrying out a practice of giving gifts on American Independence Day.

The former boxing champion bought a car for his mother keeping the holiday in mind. The 47-year-old shared a video of the car on an Instagram story, revealing that even though his mother does not know how to drive a car, she would definitely enjoy a ride in it.

He was also heard saying in the video: “This all about taking care of family. Just got my mom a new Mercedes, come check it out. You know black everything because we killing in the game, come check it out. It’s good for her. Ball seats, you know like an NBA ball. Mom I love you, got you another gift.”

Despite more than a dozen cars parked in his garage, he never stops adding more wheels in his garage. He retired from professional boxing in 2017 when he extended his record to 50-0 after defeating UFC superstar Conor McGregor. Billed as ‘The Money Fight’, it was one of the most lucrative fights in the history of the sport.

Although ‘Money’ has retired from professional boxing, he is often seen inside the ring for exhibition fights. Mayweather might not be an active name in the current boxing scene, but he makes sure to make headlines with his life outside the ring. Apart from the car he gifted his mother, there are a few more cars that he recently added to his garage.

The car shopping spree continues

The former five-division champion is arguably the most lucrative fighter in boxing history. Despite being retired, he still lives a king-size life. Even though he no longer receives the large paychecks he once did for his fights, he has amassed millions of dollars through astute investment choices. His recent upgrades to his car collection serve as evidence.

Being a boxer one requires a strong core to be able to land effective punches and react fast while in the ring. For the same reason, among other workouts, Floyd Mayweather would regularly condition his abs with the help of an ab-roller. Of late, a YouTuber popularly known as Barnation tried Mayweather’s workout with the ab roller to get unexpected results. However, it was not boxing that encouraged the YouTuber, it was rather a group of women!

As Barnation narrated the tale on YouTube, one day he went to the beach wearing a white vest. Of course, it was not a commendable choice as Barnation was not in his best shape. In his own words, Barnation looked like “Vin Diesel” in “Kevin Hart’s clothes.” However, to his surprise, a group of very attractive women approached him. But why?

The group of women who spotted Barnation seemed well-behaved and the YouTuber delighted in finding their company. However, little did he know, he was about to face disappointment. “So, long story short. This really pretty group of girls approached me and asked for directions to a restaurant. There’s nothing wrong with that,” said Barnation recalling the unfortunate incident. Soon the group of women left the YouTuber embarrassed out of the blue.

“But, it’s the way they asked me for directions. They said, ‘Excuse me, Sir, you look like you know where there’s a good place to eat really really good food,” revealed Barnation hilariously! “I just looked down and that thing [the belly] was hanging,” he said with disappointment.

But, Barnation had to be sure. So he, despite feeling awkward, confronted those women and asked, “Why would you say that?” In their reply, they made matters worse by explicitly saying, “You know your stomach.” So, Barnation misguided the women and decided to work as hard as Floyd Mayweather did.

Did Barnation achieve his goals following Floyd Mayweather’s routine?

Motivated to get back in shape, Barnation initially did “10 reps 10 times” i.e. he rolled his abs 100 times a day. However, after each rep, he would rest for a minute. But the journey was not easy! While it would be easy initially, after some time, his body would shake and he really had to push himself beyond his limits. “I felt like the food that I had the night before wanted to pop back out,” said Barnation, recalling the pain he survived. But, he did not give up.

From the 16th day onward, Barnation started to feel strong and he could feel that he was getting back in shape. Soon, he could roll his abs 200 times a day. At the end of four weeks, Barnation saw the result and was impressed. He was back in shape and wanted to return to the beach shirtless! So, he encouraged others who wish to get in shape too. “This is definitely beneficial, it really works,” he added. Let us know what you think of Barnation’s struggle in the comments below.

One of boxing’s hottest prospects, Curmel Moton, will feature on Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal’s undercard this weekend.

On Wednesday night, the 18-year-old prospect, who fights under Floyd Mayweather’s promotional banner, was added to Saturday’s card as a late addition.

He will face Russian journeyman Nikolai Buzolin (9-8-1) in his fourth professional outing (3-0).

Even though Moton is still in the fledgling stages of his promising career, there is plenty of hype surrounding the teenager.

Several media outlets have dubbed him ‘the next Floyd Mayweather’ while his mentor insists Moton is ‘destined to be great’.

Mayweather has consistently slotted Moton onto big undercards in order to get as many eyes on his young prospect as possible.

His debut, a first-round blowout of the then-undefeated Ezequiel Flores, took place on the Canelo Alvarez vs Jermell Charlo bill last September.

Meanwhile, his most recent outing against Anthony Cuba (7-1-2) – the only fight of his career so far to go the distance – was booked for the Tim Tszyu vs Sebastian Fundora show in March.

It is, therefore, no surprise that he has been added to the Diaz vs Masvidal showpiece event, which has garnered a lot of interest from both the boxing and MMA worlds.

The pair are set to rematch in boxing, five years removed from their inaugural encounter at UFC 244.
