Floyd Mayweather is one of those many boxers who stays extremely active on his social handles. Most of the time, Mayweather posts about life updates, his ongoing activities, and much more. Apart from that, ‘TBE’ also uses his social handles to promote brands, helping them get a substantial reach among his wide fan base.

These days, NFTs are a trend in almost every vertical, and boxers, too, are keeping themselves updated with the same. That said, Mayweather, on his social handles, promoted NFT for a particular brand.

Now I need you guys to support him. I got his back. I need everybody to have his back. You’re hearing it from one and only, Floyd making Money Mayweather. And it’s all about the money”
