For the Giants‘ fans, being a Big Blue supporter lately feels like waiting for a miracle that just won’t happen. The team hasn’t sniffed a Lombardi Trophy since Eli Manning pulled off that Super Bowl magic over a decade ago, and let’s not even get started on the past few seasons. Ownership? Yeah, that’s been a hot topic too. John Mara’s decisions have had fans scratching their heads, and who could forget the boos raining down during Eli’s jersey retirement?

But here’s the thing—when a franchise is worth billions, people start looking for a seat at the table. And now? The team is expected to sell 10% of the team in 2025. Well, there’s a buzz that some NFL legends are on a quest to buy a stake in the Giants. However, there’s a new entry in this saga. Spoiler alert: he’s not from the football world. Legendary boxer Floyd Mayweather is in talks to buy 10% of the Giants franchise for a whopping $700M.

Yep, you read that right. Mayweather, who is known for his undefeated boxing career and lavishing spending, is now eyeing the biggest money move of his career. The New York team is valued at $7.3 billion and is the seventh most valuable sports franchise in the world.

Now, according to TMZ Sports, Mayweather has partnered with real estate mogul Meyer Orbach to throw in a bid of around $700 million. Not to mention, Orbach already holds a 20% stake in the NBA’s Minnesota Timberwolves. The talk of the town is—two of the Giants’ minority owners have expressed interest in cashing out and selling off a chunk of their stake. The result?

An opportunity for Mayweather to seal the deal with Orbach in the football world. Orbach, while keeping the news under wraps, stated, “My partners and I are always looking at different opportunities, including ownership of sports teams. I can’t comment further than that.”

As for Mayweather? Well, he isn’t the kind of person to shy away from extravagant deals. And if he’s getting an opportunity for high-stakes business, you bet he’s all in for grabbing such deals. But if he put pen on paper for this deal? Yeah, it’s gonna be on another level—unless there’s competition from the other side.

Floyd Mayweather may have to compete with Michael Strahan & Eli Manning

Last month, rumors hit the New York headlines claiming that Giants legends Eli Manning or Michael Strahan (or both) could own minority stakes in their former team by the end of the 2020s. However, Strahan didn’t release any statement on the rumor. As for Manning, he has shown an interest in being part of a group that buys a stake in his former team.

A few days ago, the franchise announced that Mara and Tisch families had retained a banker and are exploring the potential sale of a minority stake in the franchise. Later, during an interview on CNBC Sport, Manning stated, “There’s probably only one team I’d be interested in pursuing and it’s the one I played for 16 years. And it’s local and makes the most sense, but we’ve just got to figure out if they would ever sell a little bit.”

After the Dolphins, Bills, Eagles, and Raiders, the Giants are the latest entry to look into selling a small portion of the franchise. And if Manning buys a stake in the team, he wouldn’t be the only QB to do so in the NFL. His former rival, Tom Brady has been a part of the group who acquired a 10% stake in the Raiders. BUT! Manning has to battle the boxing champion to acquire the stake.

Looks like the boxing world is about to collide with the NFL, with Floyd Mayweather and Manning both eyeing a stake in the league’s 4th richest franchise.
