Aims to deliver a high-quality product

Floyd Mayweather has now ventured into the world of spirits with his new brand, Good Money Whiskey. Launched in 2024, this brand is part of Mayweather‘s expanding collection of luxury ventures and mirrors his philosophy of excellence and hard work.

Mayweather‘s foray into the whiskey market aims to deliver a high-quality product that appeals to both whiskey enthusiasts and fans of his career. His entry into this industry is marked by a commitment to offering a top-tier experience, consistent with the standards he upholds in all his endeavors.

To get a firsthand experience, Mail Sport traveled to Las Vegas and joined Mayweather at the 8 Cigar Lounge in Resorts World to taste Good Money Whiskey.

Mayweather personally introduced the brand’s flagship product-a ten-year-old Canadian Whiskey known for its smooth, rich taste and complex aroma, featuring notes of butterscotch, spice, and vanilla.

Commitment to the investment

The boxing legend spoke about the meticulous aging process that gives the whiskey its distinct flavor profile. He also introduced a five-year-old version of the whiskey, which, while less aged, still offers a refined taste that caters to a wider audience.

Mayweather emphasized that his commitment to Good Money Whiskey goes beyond typical celebrity endorsement, reflecting his personal dedication to making the brand a leader in the market.

“Every adult wants to have something great to drink,” Mayweather said.

“And guess what? Together with my team, we developed and sourced th best exclusive products we could find to be offered to the public.

It’s just like boxing. I had the best team, so I got the best results. I’ve got the best team on my brands, too. Just try it and you’ll see.

“I don’t want to speak badly about any celebrities who have launched a product but there is a distinct difference between them and me. A lot of the time, celebrities market someone else’s products. They don’t have any ownership or equity.”

Floyd Mayweather, a name synonymous with boxing excellence, remains undefeated in his professional career with an impeccable 50-0 record. However, the boxing legend, often hailed as one of the greatest professional pugilists of all time, experienced the sting of defeat during his amateur days.

From 1996 to 2017, Mayweather dominated the professional boxing scene, securing 12 major world championships across five weight classes, ranging from super featherweight to super welterweight, and defeating 24 former or current world champions. His amateur career was also marked by notable achievements, including three national Golden Gloves championships in 1993, 1994, and 1996, and a bronze medal at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics.

Although you may beautify a crow with a peacock’s feathers, you can never completely transform the former into the latter irrespective of what you do. No matter how well-versed in boxing Devin Haney may seem to you, can you place ‘The Dream’ on the same page as Floyd Mayweather? For ShowBizz the Adult, such a comparison is outrageous and belittles Mayweather’s God-gifted skills.

And since the boxing commentator will not hesitate to call a spade a spade, he questioned Mayweather’s exhibition against Tenshin Nasukawa in Japan too. Besides ridiculing how Nasukawa responded to getting hit, ShowBizz pointed out that Mayweather was “pissed” by the Japanese boxer as the latter failed to deliver a show accepted under Mayweather’s standards.

ShowBizz is sick of others getting compared to Floyd Mayweather

In April this year, Tha Boxing Voice claimed Devin Haney resembled Floyd Mayweather. In their opinion, given the way Haney boxed, ‘The Dream’ was a threat to Mayweather’s golden legacy! However, ShowBizz has strongly opposed the comparison between Mayweather and Haney. In his opinion, considering Devin another version of Floyd is “disrespecting ‘Money’ Mayweather.” According to him, besides Mayweather’s fight IQ, Haney is deficient in speed and reflexes.

“Mayweather’s speed was blinding. His reflexes were insane. You don’t get hit by [a] Ryan-Ostarine left!” ShowBizz added, casually referring to Ryan Garcia’s failed drug test and a subsequent ban by the NYSAC. Although Garcia dominated Haney, ShowBizz is confident that Mayweather would have “whipped” ‘KingRy’ in the ring unlike ‘The Dream’ who was knocked down thrice.

Just like punching hard does not make a short fighter Mike Tyson, employing the Philly Shell is not sufficient for one to become the next Floyd. Speaking of which, ShowBizz added, “Floyd’s naturally God gifts were incredible.” Having sung praises of Mayweather’s skills which make him unique, ShowBizz ridiculed Mayweather’s exhibition against Tenshin Nasukawa.

Tenshin Nasukawa frustrated Mayweather with “worst acting”

Observing the exhibition against kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa, several fans accused Floyd Mayweather of producing a rigged fight. At the time of the exhibition, Nasukawa was the reigning Rise kickboxing champion. However, considering his amateur record that surpasses 100 fights, Nasukawa looked way too stressed from the beginning for a fighter not unfamiliar with risks. As soon as the fight began, Mayweather, bigger in size, intimidated Nasukawa as if the Japanese boxer was left with a wild creature, all forgotten by his family. Soon, following three dramatic knockdowns, Mayweather stopped Tenshin in the very first round.

Can prime Floyd Mayweather beat Gervonta Davis? While an actual fight between them is never happening, this didn’t stop boxing commentator ShowBizz the Adult from pitting the former promoter boxer duo against each other in a fantasy clash! And boy, does a fight between them look spicy!

As many are well aware of, ‘Money’ Mayweather retired from the sport back in 2017 after a win against Conor McGregor in a crossover boxing match. In contrast, Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis has just stepped into his prime years, having defeated Frank Martin in his last outing. But the question is, will Mayweather’s defense prove too much for ‘Tank’? Or will Davis’ destructive power tear through Mayweather’s defense?

Speaking about the subject in a clip he shared on his X account today, the boxing commentator suggested a fight between Floyd and Davis would be great at 135-pounds. However, from the beginning, he had the winner in his mind. He said, “But Ima tell you this though Floyd wins”.

While many would agree with ShowBizz, he goes on to emphasize Mayweather’s speed to justify his prediction. “Floyd got a great ass chin, Floyd is a killer, and he may be twice the speed of Tank. People forget how fast Floyd was”, said the boxing commentator. He goes as far as to compare Mayweather’s speed to one of boxing’s biggest legends.

“Floyd handspeed would rival Sugar Ray Leonard. Remember Pretty Boy, how he would be like his arms would be out here, and he will be just depending on his reflexes and Bam Bam”, said ShowBizz. Claiming to have thought about this fantasy matchup for a couple of weeks, ShowBizz the Adult doubled down on his prediction by repeating Floyd would win.

Floyd Mayweather is 47! Yes, he partakes in exhibition boxing matches every now and then, but none of his opponents are near the caliber of the boxer Davis is. Time and age come for every boxer and Mayweather is no different—it would be extremely unlikely for Mayweather to have retained his speed and power. Gervonta Davis would easily steamroll through the former five division champion.

And get this, even ‘Tank’ Davis’ coach feels the same way, as he challenged Floyd Mayweather for an actual fight against Davis!

Curmel Moton added another victory to his record by defeating Nikolai Buzolin in California. The 18-year-old boxing prodigy showcased his skills in the lightweight division for the first time, knocking Buzolin down in the first round and securing a second-round victory as the referee stepped in to stop the fight.

“He had a lot of experience, but I knew I was gonna come out here and handle business,” Moton said.

“I’ve had pressure on me my whole life. I’ve always had that [Mayweather] name on my shoulders. I’m used to it. When they call my name again I’ll be here, and I’ll put on another good performance.”

Floyd Mayweather Jr. was present at ringside, cheering for Moton throughout the bout. After the fight, Mayweather expressed immense pride in Moton‘s performance, reflecting on how he has mentored the young boxer at his famous gym.

Mayweather hails Moton

Moton‘s impressive win comes after previously defeating Anthony Cuba on the undercard of the Tim Tszyu-Sebastian Fundora headliner. Despite missing out on opportunities to appear in high-profile events like the Canelo Alvarez-Jaime Munguia show and Gervonta Davis‘ June 15 title defense, Moton‘s latest victory reaffirms his potential.

“He wanted to be great. He’s boxed so many different champions throughout the years, even as an amateur. I just want the best for him, but, so much talent.”

Whether it’s showing off his multiple mansions, private jets or expensive watches, Mayweather is known to splash the cash.

But among his favourite things to buys are cars – and Mayweather has lots of them.

In a recent Instagram post, the unbeaten American gave his 29.9m followers a look into just one of his driveways.

Parked out front is a black Rolls Royce Ghost, which costs up to £250,000.

Sitting next to it was a matching black Rolls-Royce Phantom – priced at close to £380,000 – which has £650 Gucci pillows and furry seats.

Mayweather was not done there as he revealed his secret purchase, an £85,000 black Mercedes van which is fitted with an Apple TV and espresso machine.

He also got himself McLaren GTS, worth £210,000 and had two more black Rolls Royces down the end of the drive.

The ring great did not limit his shopping to just cars as he revealed his brand new himalayan Gucci backpack – which fetched for £85,000.

Mayweather is the highest-earning fighter of all time with his wins over Manny Pacquiao, 45, and Conor McGregor, 35, making him over £450m alone.

And he continues to box in exhibitions even in retirement, boasting of earning up to £15m at a time.

His last came against the grandson of notorious New York crime boss John Gotti – which ended in a DQ win before a brawl broke out in the ring.

Mayweather, 47, now prepares to rematch Gotti III, 31, on August 24 in Mexico.

Inside Floyd Mayweather’s extravagant lifestyle…

Why does the discussion around Floyd Mayweather Jr.‘s legacy always raise so many questions, while other boxers—both his contemporaries and predecessors—enjoy a seamless postscript? Did he do anything wrong? Next month, the 47-year-old undefeated former champion will enter the ring for another exhibition match in Mexico City against John Gotti III. Their previous encounter in June last year ended in the most controversial manner imaginable.

One of the most frequent questions raised over Mayweather Jr.’s legacy has been the alleged tactic to delay a fight. While it would amp up the anticipation around the clash, his own risks would be minimized, and all the while he would make the most of the match in financial terms. However, a well-known boxing enthusiast and YouTube content creator argues that it may not be the right approach to evaluate ‘Money Mayweather’s greatness. There might be an altogether different reason why he didn’t quite reach the mark set by some of the other boxing greats.

Floyd Mayweather Jr., unquestionably among the best

‘@ShowBizz The Adult’, made an interesting observation. He brought up the June 29 fight between Jesse ‘Bam’ Rodriguez and Juan Francisco Estrada. The two super flyweights gave an outstanding performance in what many consider a ‘fight of the year’ nominee. However, it was Rodriguez, who, despite suffering a career-first knockdown, emerged a star that night.

His stellar performance has now pushed him to fifth place on Ring magazine’s P4P list. Many now consider him the next big thing in boxing. But for all his feats, one key aspect ‘@ShowBizz The Adult’ took up was the age gap between the ‘Bam’ and ‘El Gallo’. While the former turned 24 in January, the Mexican turned 34 in April.

So the YouTube boxing commentator argued that while no one questions Rodriguez’s accomplishment, vis-à-vis Floyd Mayweather Jr., there has to be some consistency. He gave an example of the 2013 clash with Canelo Alvarez. Against ‘The Money’s 36 years, the Mexican stood 23, 13 years his junior. But to what end? From many quarters, noises came up about how he had defeated a relatively inexperienced boxer.

Hence, if one decides to laud ‘Bam’ Rodriguez, then Mayweather Jr. deserves all the appreciation in the world for the boxing clinic he delivered against Alvarez. What would have happened if instead of ‘Bam’, Estrada had won? Would he have received the same amount of criticism as Mayweather Jr. did?

So what ‘The Money’ did was indeed great. But where he deviated from the rest of the boxing giants was in terms of restricting his talent. He never took the risk of venturing into uncharted waters and fighting in maybe higher divisions.

Could he have done more to secure the top spot?

“Where I knock Floyd is I think Floyd should have kept, I think he should have fought at 160; I think should have kept going like Duran did, like Pacquiao did, to see how great is he really, like Tommy Hearns did. Listen, you slaying everybody here; keep going,” said ‘@ShowBizz The Adult’.

One might find some merit in the boxing commentator’s argument. Floyd Mayweather Jr. was a five-division champion. But his career trajectory shows stranded phases, and then sometimes he would go down across weight classes. Now take Tommy Hearns, for example. Starting with the welterweight division, the ‘Motor City Cobra’ broke through the walls of the cruiserweight division.

Floyd Mayweather may have never tasted defeat as a pro, but he is familiar with the gut-wrenching feeling from his amateur days.

The boxing icon is widely considered to be one of the greatest professional pugilists of all time and famously retired with an unblemished 50-0 record.

During the course of a pro career stretching from 1996 to 2017, Mayweather picked up 12 major world championships in five weight classes from super featherweight to super welterweight and beat 24 former or current world champions.

As an amateur, Mayweather also enjoyed plenty of success.

‘TBE’ won three national Golden Gloves championships in 1993, 1994 and 1996 – and scooped a bronze medal at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics.

However, he was unable to maintain an undefeated record in his vested years.

Mayweather lost eight times in a 92-fight amateur career (84-8) against varying levels of opposition.

Many sites list him as being 84-6 while others claim he had even lost as many as nine fights, yet there is only proof of eight – most of which aren’t accompanied by video footage.

The first defeat Mayweather suffered in the unpaid ranks was a points loss to Arnulfo Bravo at the 1994 United States Junior National Championships.

Bravo was a decent amateur, who won the 1995 national Golden Gloves (112lbs) but wasn’t able to replicate the same kind of successes in the pros.

He fought six times in the paid ranks from 1996 to 1997, compiling an unremarkable 4-2 record.

The next man to beat Mayweather was Martin Castillo at a 1994 United States vs Mexico dual meet in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Shakur Stevenson is a free agent now, as his contract with Bob Arum’s Top Rank ended with his July 6 fight against German Olympic Medalist Artem Harutyunyan. Every top promoter has now his eyes on the WBC lightweight champion. In addition to Top Rank’s $15 million offer which Stevenson declined, Oscar De La Hoya and Eddie Hearn are also eager to sign the Newark native to their respective stables. Nonetheless, according to an insider, Stevenson might have a name in mind about who he wants to collaborate with.

There has been a lot of chatter about who Stevenson will choose as his promoter, and there are rumors that Floyd Mayweather Jr. may win the race to sign the young boxer soon. According to a YouTuber and boxing insider with ties to the Mayweather Team, Floyd may just have the perfect bait for Shakur.

Shakur Stevenson’s chance to possibly fight Gervonta Davis 

Boxing insider and YouTuber ‘Blue Blood Sports TV’ began unveiling the rumor by first dismissing the claim that Shakur Stevenson had brought in Floyd Mayweather as his official advisor. And that the five-division champ was advising Stevenson to fight “the likes of Ryan Garcia”. Dispelling the notion, the host of Blue Blood Sports said, “Well, this is not true people, this is not true. He has an advisor, and he has a manager in the form of J Prince. But does he look at Floyd Mayweather for advice, absolutely.”

‘Blue Blood Sports TV’ revealed that a supposed FaceTime call that Stevenson had with Floyd Mayweather recently led many to think that Shakur was joining Mayweather Promotions instead of Matchroom or Golden Boy Promotions.

The Boxing insider added, “But now, I’ll tell you what – Floyd Mayweather has a deal on the table that he is offering Shakur Stevenson, I can tell you that. It’s a multi-fight deal that’s going to guarantee Shakur Stevenson gets a fight with Gervonta Davis at some point in time.”  This, told to Blue Blood Sports by a source inside Mayweather’s team, is what leads the insider to believe that Floyd Mayweather may sign ‘Sugar’ soon.

The Newark-based boxer has long been anticipating a clash against Gervonta Davis. If these rumors really turn out to be true, fans will be thrilled to witness this much-awaited showdown. Interestingly, only a few days ago, Shakur Stevenson had expressed his openness to joining hands with ‘Money’.

Shakur Stevenson is open to a “partnership” with Floyd Mayweather

‘Sugar’ and the boxing great share a good relationship with each other. So much so that Mayweather even called Stevenson after his fight with Harutyunyan to suggest little things that he could have done better. While discussing the possibility of Shakur joining Mayweather Promotions on the CigarTalk show, Stevenson stated, “It’s an option, for sure. I got nothing but respect and love for Floyd.”

Furthermore, the 22-0 boxer added, “At the end of the day, I wouldn’t mind working with Floyd as long as it makes sense, and it is a partnership type of thing. I appreciate Floyd.” Gervonta Davis was the main attraction of Mayweather Promotions. But in 2022, Tank parted ways with the organization.

Shakur Stevenson could take that spot, and he would naturally receive tutelage from the great Floyd Mayweather as well. Do you think Stevenson will join Mayweather Promotions? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

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.
