Retired boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. is ready to part ways with his grand six-bedroom, 9.5-bath bath estate in Beverly Hills, Calif., and he’s aiming to secure a hefty profit when he sells it of.
The more-than-15,000-square-foot mansion on a half-acre lot comes with an astonishing $48 million price tag.
The Mexican is the top star in the boxing business according to Robert Garcia
The commercial success of Canelo Alvarez isn’t up for debate in the boxing world, of which he became the face after the retirement of Floyd Mayweather Jr, the Mexican’s executioner in 2013.
For that reason Saul Alvarez has the luxury of deciding who his opponents are, and regardless of their standing, his drawing power remains unmatched.
Thank you for watching
In his last fight on September 14 against Edgar Berlanga, Canelo generated approximately $17 million in box office at the T-Mobile and around $60MDD in pay-per-view (PPV) sales, according to Sports Business Journal estimates. So in total he generated about $80 million by picking his opponent.
Those numbers deflate any attack on Saul Alvarez over his choice of opponents, believes trainer Robert Garcia, as only stars like Floyd Mayweather Jr. can do that.
That tells you that Canelo is a superstar, he’s the face of boxing right now. People make fun of him for his choice of opponents, but when you look at the buys, when you look at the gate, does he look like he’s found the right spot?
“Mayweather was also in that position where no matter who he fights or who he puts on an exhibition with, he’s still going to put up good numbers. So, there are very few that could do that and Canelo is one of them,” Robert Garcia told FightHub TV.
The boxing legend has earned more than $1billion dollars throughout his illustrious career
Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather Jr., a name synonymous with boxing greatness and wealth, has cemented his status as one of the most financially successful athletes of all time.
With an impeccable boxing record of 50-0, Mayweather’s prowess in the ring has translated into staggering earnings and an unrivaled net worth.
Despite his humble beginnings, Mayweather’s career earnings have soared to an astonishing $1.2 billion, making him one of the wealthiest athletes globally.
His net worth, as of 2024, stands around $400-$450 million.
During his illustrious career, Mayweather secured fifteen major world titles, establishing himself not only as the richest but also one of the most decorated boxers of all time.
Before turning professional, he had already claimed an Olympic bronze medal and three national Golden Gloves titles, laying the groundwork for his future dominance in the sport.
Mayweather’s ability to negotiate lucrative fight deals has been a key driver of his astronomical wealth. His showdowns against boxing legends like Manny Pacquiao and Conor McGregor have resulted in eye-watering paychecks, with reported earnings reaching $300 million and $350 million respectively.
Notably, Mayweather’s guaranteed disclosed paycheck for his fights often pales in comparison to his actual earnings.
For instance, while his guaranteed paycheck for a fight might stand at $100 million, his actual earnings could soar to an astonishing $275 million, showcasing his unparalleled drawing power and revenue generation capability.
The magnitude of Mayweather’s earnings becomes even more staggering when compared to other athletes.
He sits proudly as the fifth highest-paid athlete of all time, alongside sporting icons like Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods.
What sets Mayweather apart is his ability to amass such wealth primarily through his boxing endeavors, with endorsement deals forming only a fraction of his earnings.
Beyond the boxing ring, Mayweather has diversified his wealth through smart investments in real estate.
His property portfolio boasts luxurious residences in prime locations, serving as testaments to his keen eye for lucrative opportunities.
In Las Vegas, Mayweather’s primary residence since 2018 is an opulent 11-bedroom custom-built mansion spanning 22,000 square feet, acquired for $10 million.
Additionally, he owns a lavish 13,000-square-foot mansion in Vegas, purchased for $9.5 million, which served as his primary residence from 2010 to 2018.
The boxing icon’s real estate empire extends beyond Vegas, with notable acquisitions including a $25.5 million mansion in Beverly Hills, equipped with extravagant amenities such as a candy shop, a 12-seat movie theater, and a 300-bottle wine room.
In August 2021, Mayweather expanded his real estate holdings with an $18 million waterfront mansion on Miami’s Palm Island.
Outside the ring, Mayweather’s business ventures further bolster his financial empire.
He owns Mayweather Promotions, a successful promotional company, and TMT, his own apparel brand.
Mayweather’s extravagant lifestyle is characterized by luxury cars, private jets, and an extensive jewelry collection.
Despite occasional rumors of financial troubles, Mayweather’s strategic investments and his approach to wealth management have ensured his enduring prosperity.
The next ‘Money’ fight
Floyd Mayweather Jr. will face off again in an exhibition fight against John Gotti III, emanating this time from Mexico City. Although it has not yet been revealed what his purse will be for this show, it is estimated that Mayweather will get a much ‘more modest’ amount of between $20 and $25 million.
Is there anyone who can knock the ‘face of boxing’ Canelo Alvarez off his perch? In his eighth unified super middleweight title defense, Canelo delivered another boxing masterclass against his opponent Edgar Berlanga at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. In front of his loyal Mexican fans gathered at the venue, Canelo dominated Berlanga through the fight, cruising to a unanimous decision victory. The judges score the fight 117-110, 118-109, and 118-109, in favor of Canelo.
Ahead of the Berlanga fight, another interesting statistic about Canelo Alvarez has come to the fore. Surpassing his former rival Floyd Mayweather, Canelo Alvarez has more professional rounds under his belt. According to Boxing Kingdom, Canelo is placed second on a list of fighters for “Professional Rounds boxed” with 496 total rounds fought until now.
Notably, the list was released before the Berlanga fight. So, as the fight with the Puerto Rican boxer went the full distance, Canelo’s tally of professional rounds fought stands at 508. He is now just 40 rounds short of equaling the record of the late boxing legend Muhammad Ali.
‘The Greatest’ has fought 548 rounds in the professional circuit, and been in 61 fights. The 50-0 undefeated boxing legend Floyd Mayweather is behind Canelo on the list, with 397 rounds of boxing completed in the professional circuit. The former five-division champion Sugar Ray Leonard was placed fourth on the list, with 306 rounds under his belt. And behind him, in fifth position, is the legendary Kazakhstan middleweight boxer Gennadiy Golovkin.
Of course, many other great boxers were excluded from this list who would have ranked at the top if this were a list of most rounds ever boxed ever. Boxing legends like Julio Cesar Chavez, with 634 rounds fought, and Sugar Ray Robinson, with a staggering 1,401 rounds, would easily claim top positions. But that’s a list for another day.
Canelo still has a long way to go before he can surpass Muhammad Ali’s record. He needs at least three professional bouts to go the full distance, and then another fight to go for at least five rounds to beat the former heavyweight champion’s record. On the flip side, Canelo might just retire before passing that number as he believes he doesn’t have much else left to prove in boxing.
Interestingly, Canelo bagging so many professional rounds under his belt can be attributed to a recent phenomenon.
Canelo Alvarez has had five straight unanimous decision wins, with his last knockout victory coming against Caleb Plant in 2021. Despite being once renowned as an explosive fighter, Canelo Alvarez hasn’t had a knockout win in three years. But is it a deliberate attempt on his part to change his fight strategy to become a distance fighter rather than a knockout artist?
Notably, in a recent interview, Canelo revealed that he could have knocked out his compatriot Jaime Munguia in their bout in May this year but chose to go the distance because he “enjoys” fighting. Safe to say, at this stage of his career, Alvarez is pulling his punches and willingly putting his gas tank to the test.
Floyd Mayweather Jr. (50-0, 27 KOs) and John Gotti III (2-0, 1 KO) went the distance in their exhibition clash.
The two men fought over eight, two-minute rounds. As no judges were scoring the contest and no knockouts, there was no official result. However, had the fight been scored, Mayweather would have won wide on the scorecards. Despite being the much younger and heavier fighter (Mayweather was 160 lbs, Gotti was 181 lbs), Gotti was thoroughly outboxed from start to finish.
The fight headlined an August 24 Mayweather Promotions event at the Arena Ciudad de México. Boxing fans around the world could catch all the action on DAZN as a pay-per-view (except in México). Those in México were able to do so on TV Azteca.
The opening round saw both fighters keep their distance for the most part. Mayweather was the busier of the two, landing jabs and countering. Although each round was supposed to be two minutes long, it appeared the timekeeper had not yet gotten the memo. It was not until Gotti pointed it out to referee Hector Afu that the round finally came to an end.

The entirety of the clash saw Mayweather essentially have his way without putting too much effort or getting hit much. Though Gotti was getting outboxed, he was never in danger of getting stopped, allowing the fight to go the distance. With no knockouts, it went the distance with no official result.
Alan Romero (29-0-1, 16 KOs) won a unanimous decision against Azat Hovhannisyan (21-5, 17 KOs). Scores for the 12-round super bantamweight clash were 120-108 and 118-110 (x2). Hovhannisyan lost a point in round five for low blows.
Boxing great Floyd Mayweather Jr. rematched John Gotti III in an exhibition Saturday night in Mexico City. The fight played out exactly as many expected, and as the first meeting did, with the boxing great simply being a better fighter. Thankfully, the fight did not end in a brawl as was the case in their June 2023 meeting. Despite Mayweather clearly dominating the action, no winner was announced due to the fight being an exhibition.
Mayweather was cautious to not give Gotti opportunities to do effective work, instead leaning heavily on his jab followed by straight right hands to control the action. As the rounds ticked by, Gotti was visibly frustrated by Mayweather’s standard economic and effective approach to the “sweet science.”
Given the fight was an exhibition, featuring eight, two-minute rounds, there was not likely to be any notable result. This has been a standard approach to exhibition fights since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, with Mayweather only truly bringing his best game in bouts with Japanese kickboxers in fights that would have a result announced at the end.
Like his exhibition fights with the likes of Logan Paul, Mayweather was content to carry the fight through the scheduled time for the bout while clearly being the better of the two men in the ring. At the conclusion of the eighth round, there was no winner announced.
Mayweather and Gotti embraced after the fight, a stark contrast to the brawl that followed their first bout.
Throughout his storied professional career, Mayweather had many notable bouts with Mexican superstars. Having held an exhibition on hostile soil, Mayweather was thankful to the crowd.
“Mexico City,” Mayweather said. “Thanks for coming out.”
In Round 2 of the bout scheduled for eight, referee Hector Afu stopped the action to warn Floyd Mayweather about hitting his opponent to the back of the head. The 50-0 fighter did not agree with his critique. And a prolonged stop to the action ensued as they argued and Afu looked to the scoring table for support.
Eventually, Mayweather can be seen saying, “Get me a new ref,” and that is exactly what happened. Afu disappeared from the ring and then was quickly replaced by Alfredo Uruzquieta. The fact that a new referee could be installed so fast, and the fight immediately restarts will surely make some wonder if the moment was staged.
However, Mayweather and his Mayweather Promotions helped to put on the bout. So the boxing legend had unusual control over the event. It isn’t impossible that being able to remove referees during fights is part of his contract. Either way, it was another odd moment in the final chapters of “Money’s” fighting career.
In a truly bizarre moment during his exhibition fight on Saturday night, boxing legend Floyd Mayweather grew so upset with his bout’s referee that he hilariously fired him midway through the matchup.
If you have not been following the latest happenings in the career of boxing Hall-of-Famer Floyd Mayweather, the undefeated icon has transitioned to competing in circus-like exhibition bouts. Instead of adding to his record, the 47-year-old is looking to bank as much dough as possible while still in solid athletic shape.
The latest installment in his exhibition tour occurred on Saturday night when Mayweather faced John Gotti III in Mexico City. The bout was a rematch of a clash the two had last year that ended in a disqualification. After a melee ensued between their two entourages late in the fight. And similar to the first bout, more strange moments occurred in the rematch.
It was chaos the last time Floyd Mayweather and John Gotti III were in the ring together. Both teams attacked one another outside the ring following a lackluster affair. What will happen when both face off in a rematch on August 24?
The fight takes place in Mexico City and will air on DAZN PPV worldwide.
“As long as he keeps himself in good condition, he can fight till he’s 55. We’re gonna milk the cow till it can’t be milked any more. We take advantage of him being in shape mentally and physically, and that’s what it is,” President of The Money Team James McNair told Give Me Sport.
