Floyd Mayweather Jrm bg. once splurged on a seriously exclusive Koenigsegg

He spent more than $4 million on a Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita

Only two of the stunning hypercars were ever made

Floyd Mayweather Jr. once splashed the cash on a Koenigsegg hypercar that was one of just two ever made.

The boxing legend – who has the nickname ‘Money’ for fairly obvious reasons – parted with a whopping $4,800,000 to get his hands on a Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita.

With an estimated net worth of around $400 million, money is basically no object to ‘Money’.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. is happy to splash his cash

From a $50 million private jet that’s like a flying palace to a $1.4 million diamond-encrusted watch, he’s happy to spend big to get what he wants.

It seems one of the things he wants is an epic car collection, which he’s been adding to over the years.

But even among such a high-end collection – stuffed with Lamborghinis, Rolls-Royce, and Ferraris – the Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita is a real gem.

For starters, it is one of the fastest cars ever made with a top speed of 400km/h (248mph).

The CCXR Trevita’s 4.7 liter V8  can produce 1,018 horsepower and 781lb-ft of torque and can hit 100km/h (62mph) in 3.1 seconds.

Only two Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita were ever made

What makes it all the more special is the fact that just two of the stunning hypercars were ever made.

The car gets its name from an abbreviation of Swedish words that translate into ‘three whites’.

It features totally unique, specially designed carbon weave bodywork.

“Prior to the Trevita, car manufacturers only had access to traditional black carbon fiber,” Koenigsegg explained.

“Koenigsegg developed a unique coated fiber solution for the Trevita program that transformed the fibers from black to a sparkling, silvery-white.

“When sunlight hits the Trevita, it sparkles as if millions of tiny white diamonds are infused inside the visible carbon fiber bodywork.” Sounds fancy.

Mayweather showed off the car in an Instagram post when he bought it back in 2015.

“My new 4.8 million dollar car,” he wrote.

“$4,800,000 Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita supercar.

“Koenigsegg is an ultra boutique automobile manufacturer for the super-rich.

“Koenigsegg made only two Trevita for the world and this is the number two of two.”

How the other half live, eh?

An “enemy for life” Floyd Mayweather has now been forgiven by John Gotti III, grandson of former New York mobster John Gotti. After the melee that erupted following John Gotti III’s disqualification during an exhibition match against Floyd Mayweather in June last year, there was bad blood between them for quite a long time. But things have cooled down, and they are now looking to settle the dispute once and for all inside the ring on November 14 in Mexico City, rather than engaging in crude mudslinging on social media.

In an interview with TMZ, Gotti III took a trip down memory lane and narrated the chain of events that happened inside the ring which eventually led to the entourages of both camps rushing into the ring and engaging in a brawl. Furthermore, he revealed his game plan for the rematch against the legendary 50-0 fighter.

Gotti III ties up the loose ends!

In an interview with TMZ, the 2-0 professional fighter shared his perspective on his ill-famed bout with Floyd Mayweather. For the uninitiated, referee Kenny Bayless disqualified him, midway through round 6, for clinching Mayweather, and not adhering to the rules of the bout. This made an angry Gotti III shove the referee and charge at Mayweather while throwing haymakers.

But, the anger was building up in Gotti III from round one. “He made it personal, I didn’t make it personal. You know he came out from the get-go of that first fight. He was on the verbal attack right away you know and Kenny Bayless had no problem with that whatsoever,” he said. The fight was a one-sided domination as an aggressive Mayweather kept peppering him with big shots, all the while shooting insults at him.

Thereafter, he accused the referee of being partial towards Mayweather. “When I started giving it back it became a problem,” Gotti remarked, pointing out that he received warnings for verbally insulting Mayweather, while ‘Pretty Boy’ got away scot-free.

Choice words, sleds, and punches—all were flying in the ring when Floyd Mayweather Jr. and John Gotti III clashed in June last year. The fight had chaos written all over it from the first bell, and it ended in one when an in-ring brawl broke out and spilled outside it. Fast forward to a year later and the fans are ready to witness the two roll it back and finally conclude what they started. The Michigan native has left an enigmatic message amid the soaring tension and mind games.

Mayweather Jr., 47, and Gotti III, 31, will fight it out on August 14 at the iconic Arena Ciudad de México in Mexico City. Both fighters have promised fireworks and opened verbal attacks. Amid blunt exchanges, it seems ‘Money’ has also dropped a subtle hint. It might refer to his long list of potential suitors, who are eager to put pen to paper for a fight, and the vanity of such exchanges.

Mayweather Jr., at 50-0, turned to his Instagram handle and wrote in a post, “I got too many options to be going back and forth about anything with anybody.”

The former world champion could be hinting at his star power and his indulgence in various ventures besides boxing, now that he has hung up the gloves. Alternatively, it could be a dig at Gotti III and suggest the gulf between them. It seems a wise choice, as Mayweather Jr. has been reluctant to go full-throttle as he wants to avoid friction with the Gotti family. Fans might already be aware that Gotti carries the same name as his grandfather and mob boss, John Gotti, the former boss of New York’s Gambino Crime Family. However, if Gotti III were to be believed, his grandfather would have liked the scenario of his grandson going up against one of the modern boxing greats.

John Gotti III’s grandfather would have enjoyed the brawl with Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Gotti III, who has transitioned from MMA to boxing, revealed his desire to make a positive impact on his family by taking up the combat sports route. He told TMZ, “He [John Gotti] would’ve wanted to rip Floyd’s head off when all that stuff’s going down. But I’m sure he would admire my fighting spirit… You know, I’m fighting to get respect for my name and make a positive impact on my family. So I’m sure he could appreciate that.”

Floyd Mayweather Jr., the boxing champion who could dodge punches like nobody’s business, apparently couldn’t dodge his way out of a car dealership faux pas.  Even though he’s retired from boxing (except for that whole “exhibition match” with McGregor), Floyd’s still a fixture in the fight game, reminding everyone he’s undefeated and filthy rich.

This dude’s a walking money machine – literally exceeding the billion-dollar mark in earnings. So, naturally, he surrounds himself with the finer things in life: Rolls-Royces, Ferraris, Lamborghinis – you name the brand, Floyd’s probably got the keys (or at least used to). But there’s one prestigious car company that’s thrown a left hook at Floyd’s automotive dreams: Bugatti.

See, Floyd was a big spender at Bugatti, a real VIP customer. But things went south faster than a bad right hook when Bugatti discovered Floyd flipped a black Bugatti Veyron for way more than the sticker price of a brand new one – just because he’d driven it.  Apparently, reselling a car with a celebrity mark-up wasn’t part of the Bugatti VIP package.  The company wasn’t having it, and Floyd got blacklisted faster than a fighter who forgot to make weight.

So, Floyd might be retired from the ring, but it seems the battle for Bugatti bragging rights is a fight he lost.  But hey, at least he’s got a garage full of other luxury cars to keep him company (and a bank account that probably doesn’t even care).

Undefeated former professional boxer Floyd Mayweather visited a Jewish summer camp in Glen Spey, New York, last week that is organized for children battling cancer and chronic illnesses.

The retired 50-0 boxing champion, 47, stopped by Chai Lifeline’s Camp Simcha and put on a boxing demonstration in a specially built ring that featured the message “Knock out cancer.” He also trained with kids at the camp and even helped campers lace up their boxing gloves before entering the ring.

Chai Lifeline shared a video from Mayweather’s visit to the camp, which serves 480 children every summer, and said he also gave “motivational talks” and “engaged in activities that lifted the spirits of the brave children.”

“This is by far one of the best camps in the world,” Mayweather said at one of the activities he participated in while visiting the camp on July 31. “This is an unbelievable camp. I hear about this camp all the time. There is nothing like the bond that you guys have … I’m proud of you all.”

“I want everybody in this room to stay positive, have great energy,” he added. “These special children need our support, need our help. We need to stand behind them and help them and let them know that they’re great and they can do anything. Anything is possible.”

Rabbi Simcha Scholar, CEO of Chai Lifeline, said: “We are thrilled to welcome Floyd Mayweather to Camp Simcha. Our children are fighters in their own right, battling illness year-round. Floyd’s visit was truly special and inspiring for them. He is a champion both in and out of the ring, and we thank him for giving our campers an experience they will never forget.”

After the deadly Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attacks in southern Israel, Mayweather used his private jet to deliver food, bulletproof vests for Israel Defense Force (IDF) soldiers, medical equipment, and other supplies to Israel. He expressed solidarity with Israel in the aftermath of the Hamas attacks and has also donated a fleet of “medicycles” to Magen David Adom, Israel’s national ambulance and disaster-relief organization.

The former boxer visited the Jewish state in November 2022 and also earlier this year, when he received the Champion for Israel award at the Dan Family Aish World Center in Jerusalem for supporting Israel and speaking out against hate and antisemitism. He was also awarded the Lifesaving Award from United Hatzalah, Israel’s volunteer-based medical emergency organization, for his delivery of equipment to help Israel during the ongoing war with Hamas.
