Boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr. is one of the few boxers who have managed to add on their financial wealth outside the ring. The 50-0 boxer is one of the richest boxers in the world even after retiring from the sport back in 2017. He has also been vocal about his wealth over the years, often flaunting his luxurious cars, private jets, and extravagant lifestyle on social media.
However, ‘Money’ Mayweather’s wealth has often been questioned by many, and his net worth has been a topic on which people love to speculate on. YouTubers Logan Paul and Jake Paul have already claimed that the former champion has gone broke which is the reason why he has to do exhibition bouts even after retirement. Moreover, former UFC title contender Chael Sonnen also recently made some shocking remarks on how much Mayweather earned during his career.

In a recent appearance on Andrew Schulz‘s podcast Flagrant, Sonnen claimed that Mayweather claiming he earned $130 million from a single fight purse, is improbable in boxing. Moreover, he added that Mayweather was also never close to being a billionaire. “You’ll see reports like you mentioned 100 million for Floyd. The reports are 130. First off, he never got $1oo million for a fight and is not even remotely close. But there is a report of 130, there are reports online that Floyd’s a billionaire,” he said.
