The infamous former Tampa Bay wide receiver, Antonio Brown, and the legendary boxer Floyd Mayweather formed an unexpected friendship. The super athletes partied and spent fun-filled time with each other. Their relationship grew stronger. ‘Money’ Mayweather offered an astounding amount of $20 million to every NFL franchise if they got AB on their roster. However, they also spent intellectual conversations with each other during a run.

Since his exit from the Bucs, Brown tried to find a franchise that would offer him a contract. To help a friend in need, the famed professional boxer made a deal. If any team signed AB and he stayed with the team with no problems, the team will give Mayweather and Brown $20 million. And if problems arise, the 45-year-old will pay the team that sum. Nothing came out of that deal.
