Floyd Mayweather and Muhammad Ali are two of the most significant figures in boxing history.

Ali was an enigma inside and outside of the ropes, bringing a fresh style to the heavyweight division with a supreme confidence and becoming a cultural icon for his actions away from the sport.

Floyd Mayweather Jr.: I'm better than Muhammad Ali | FOX SportsThough ‘Money’ Mayweather hasn’t had the same impact as Ali away from the sport, he changed the game in many ways. Perhaps the best defensive fighter of all time, Mayweather claimed four of the top five biggest selling pay-per-view events ever on his way to a perfect 50-0 record and titles in five divisions.

Like Ali, his self-belief is unwavering. It perhaps doesn’t come as a surprise then that, when put to him by ESPN that Ali was the greatest fighter of all time, he had a simple response.

“It’s Floyd Mayweather.”

Elaborating, the 47-year-old looked at the criteria for the tag.

“What are we judging fighters on? If we’re judging them on standing up for a cause, then it’s Ali, hands down. But if we’re talking about taking less punishment and breaking all records then it’s Floyd Mayweather.

“Muhammad Ali paved the way for me to be where I’m at today. He’s a legend. But if we’re talking about record-breaking, we have to look at Ali losing his world title to a fighter with only seven fights [Leon Spinks].

“So, these are the things that we don’t look at. We only look at him standing up for a cause, which is the great thing because if Ali didn’t stand for that cause, I wouldn’t be where I’m at today. So, I have to take off my hat to Ali. But I didn’t get into this sport for forty years to say there’s another fighter better than me.”

Floyd Mayweather Needed Just 3 Words When Asked If Muhammad Ali Is The  Greatest Of All Time - Seconds OutMayweather doesn’t buy that the more thrilling the fight the better the fighter, rather that he proved he was the greatest by completely outclassing those who stepped in the ring with him.

“For me to be known as the best, I have to be in a drag-out, knockout fight? I can make the extraordinary look ordinary; that’s what’s so great about my career.”

Floyd Mayweather was quick to spend his reported $180million purse for fighting and beating Manny Pacquiao.

Mayweather and Pacquiao met in the highest grossing boxing pay-per-view event of all time in May 2015, an event that generated unprecedented revenue.

A whole host of the biggest celebrity names flocked to Las Vegas to see the pair do battle, which saw Mayweather outbox Pacquiao to pick up a superb points victory.

It was a captivating battle that finally took place after years of rivalry, and the numbers behind the event were record-breaking.

How Floyd Mayweather Became Boxing's First $1 Billion FighterThe event generated in excess of $300m in total revenue, with Mayweather pocketing $180m of that.

Pacquiao took home a reported $120m payout, and it was life-changing fortune for both fighters.

Eventual winner Mayweather had been accustomed to living a life of luxury and extravagance, having left his promotional deal to start earning a small fortune from every time he stepped in the ring.

But his purse for beating ‘Pac Man’ was the highest of his career, and he couldn’t help but pick himself up a reward.

Mayweather announced five months afterwards that he had bought himself a new car to add to his frightening collection.

Mayweather bought a brand new black chrome 2015 Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse.

The luxury vehicle had a custom-design and was worth a purchase value of $3.5m, which ‘TBE’ decided to fork out.

It is a vehicle capable of maximum speed of around 210mph, and was yet another supercar to add to his lucrative collection.

Floyd Mayweather's secret to success was ability to adapt, says  welterweight prospect Dan Morley | Boxing News | Sky SportsMayweather is now reported to have a car collection worth around £20m in the present day, including the gift to himself in 2015.

His lucrative clash with Pacquiao set him up with generational wealth, and sent the magnitude of his profile into a new stratosphere.

But he wasn’t done at 48 victories without defeat as he decided to fight two more times to reach the magic 50-0.

Mayweather outpointed Andre Berto in a defence of his WBC welterweight title later that year.

And in a lucrative final bow, ‘Money’ came close to matching his lucrative Pacquiao victory in a huge event with Conor McGregor.

The 2017 clash saw him pick up a final victory against the Irish UFC star with a dominant stoppage win.

And he pocketed another purse around the $100m mark, after the event generated around $600m in total revenue.

It was the second highest of his career and as he retired, his lifestyle continued as luxury, but he has since also made a series of intelligent investments.

Mayweather has also been fighting in multiple lucrative exhibition outings, against the likes of Logan Paul, Deji and Aaron Chalmers.

Floyd Mayweather (@FloydMayweather) / XAnd he has since claimed that he earns a mammoth $300m per month even after his professional career ended.

“I will continue to give back to the sport of boxing in my time, and I will also give back financially because I got it,” Mayweather said

“To my team, my guys in New York, and my other real estate team that’s here today, we can’t be stopped.

“In 32 months, I put myself in a position with a smart business team to make $300m a month. It all started from the sport of boxing.”

 

Floyd Mayweather barely put a foot wrong during his unblemished 50-0 professional career.

Only a handful of fighters were able to ask questions of the self-proclaimed ‘Best Ever’ at the peak of his powers.

There was his nip-and-tuck affair with Oscar De La Hoya in 2007, a shaky moment against Shane Mosley in 2010 and, of course, Mayweather’s inaugural encounter against Jose Luis Castillo in 2002, which many fans felt he lost.

But outside of those three fights, Mayweather remained in almost complete control throughout his stint in the paid ranks.

Other generational greats he shared the ring with were Manny Pacquiao, Miguel Cotto and Canelo Alvarez.

It is therefore a massive compliment to former welterweight champion Errol Spence Jr, who Mayweather sparred in 2013, that he was singled out as one of the best fighters the boxing icon had faced in the ring.

“Errol Spence, he’s a hell of a fighter,” Mayweather told Fight Hype.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. Net Worth: How much is the fortune of the controversial boxer? | Marca“One thing about me, I’m always going to give it to you 100 per cent you know.

“And in training camp, when I was training for my fight with [Robert] Guerrero, Errol Spence gave me solid work.

“He’s a very young, tough competitor, so if I sit here and not give that young kid props, it’ll be bad.

“Even though after doing my time I’d been off a year, he took me to the limit, he made me work in the boxing gym, I like kids like that.”

Spence unified the WBA, WBC and IBF welterweight titles in the late 2010s and early 2020s before losing all three major world titles to Terence Crawford in a much-anticipated, undisputed clash in July 2023.

‘The Truth’ hasn’t fought since that fateful night although he is reportedly close to agreeing on a deal to box WBO and WBC super welterweight champion Sebastian Fundora in early 2025.

However, newly appointed WBO president Gustavo Olivieri has informed talkSPORT.com that only the WBC title will be on the line should that fight make it off the negotiation table.

If Fundora beats Spence then he will keep hold of his belt.

But should he fall to defeat then WBO interim champion Crawford will be elevated to full world champion without throwing a punch.

Success Lessons from Floyd Mayweather. « Money Matters with Nimi“During the WBO convention at the ratings proceedings which I was presiding at after being elected, TGB Promotions through their council, Phile Weiss (lawyer) petitioned that Errol Spence be installed within the top ten at 154lbs,” said Oliveri.

“The purpose was to request that he be allowed to fight Fundora for the [WBO] title and he presented his case with strong arguments.

“But there are some factors that are undisputed: he’s been inactive for two years, he’s coming off a brutal TKO loss to Terence Crawford and he has never fought at 154lbs nor been rated at 154lbs.

“So I have those facts that are undisputed… You may say ‘Errol Spence is one of the biggest names at 154lbs, it’s a great fight against Fundora’.

“But based on those facts and the other fighters that are waiting their turn at 154lbs, having fought at 154lbs plus their level activity, their suitable opposition, having won regional titles, having faced rated contenders.

“If I allow Spence to fight Fundora immediately for the title with those facts…

“Would that be a good precedent to set? It would open doors for other petitions, ‘Oh you did this in the past, why are you not giving the chance to another fighter?’

“And we have done this in the past, Tim Tszyu wanted to fight Keith Thurman and we didn’t approve Thurman.

“And we’re not going to sanction that fight [Fundora vs Spence]. Fundora may fight Spence but it will be considered a WBO non-title fight…

“We’re going to allow him to proceed with that fight with the condition that if he loses, the title is vacated automatically and Crawford elevated to full champion status.”

Jeff stated that while KSI’s team has expressed interest and reached out, they need to finalize a deal soon. Otherwise, Floyd might opt for another option—like Pacquiao or Jake Paul—which could jeopardize KSI’s plans.

What is Floyd Mayweather’s net worth?

Floyd Mayweather’s net worth is estimated at $450 million as of 2025, per beIN Sports. Much of his wealth comes from an undefeated boxing career and record-breaking paydays, including $300 million from his fight against Manny Pacquiao.

Outside the ring, Mayweather earns from investments in real estate, clubs, and Mayweather Promotions. Despite his lavish lifestyle, he remains one of the wealthiest athletes in history.

Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali and Floyd Mayweather are three of the biggest names in boxing history.

Tyson is the youngest world heavyweight champion in history, becoming the number one attraction in the sport throughout the 80s and 90s.

Ali transcended the sport in the same way in the 60s and 70s, being involved in some of the biggest fights of all time including the ‘Rumble In The Jungle’ and the ‘Thrilla In Manila.’

Mayweather then took that baton as the face of boxing in the 2000s and 2010s, becoming the box office king before retiring with a perfect 50-0 undefeated record in 2017.

It was those accolades that led Mayweather to claim that he is the best boxer of all time, telling ESPN that he is better than Ali was.

Floyd Mayweather Jr.: I'm better than Muhammad Ali | FOX Sports“No one can ever brainwash me to make me believe that Muhammad Ali was better than me. Leon Spinks beat him when he had seven fights. They’d never put a fighter in there with Floyd Mayweather with seven fights.”

Tyson has reacted angrily to those comments, and needed just three words to let his feelings be known on Mayweather whilst talking to UCN.

“He’s very delusional.”

Tyson then expanded further and pulled no punches on Mayweather.

“If he was anywhere near that realm of great as Muhammad Ali, he’d be able to take his kids to school by himself. He can’t take his kids to school by himself, and he’s talking about he’s great?

Floyd Mayweather leaves Muhammad Ali out from his top 5 boxers, puts himself at #1Greatness is not guarding yourself from the people. It’s being accepted by the people. He can’t take his kids alone to school by himself. He’s a little scared man. He’s a very small, scared man.”

Tyson recently returned to the ring for a controversial fight with Jake Paul, and ‘Iron Mike’ has one question from the bout that he still wants answered.

Mayweather pocketed a mammoth $1.2 billion in estimated earnings from his professional boxing career, where he retired as a true icon with 50 wins undefeated.

Some of his biggest nights saw him generate obscene revenue, setting up a generational worth for himself fighting the likes of Manny Pacquiao in 2014 and Conor McGregor in 2017.

He eventually hung up his gloves after battering Irish UFC superstar McGregor in 2017, with many expecting he would indeed leave the sport behind.

But Mayweather was always hungry for more, and although his professional career was over, ‘TBE’ decided there was still a route to making money.

His first exhibition came in 2018 when he took on Japanese star Tenshin Nasukawa in Japan where he earned a big purse.

In 2021, Mayweather took on Logan Paul where he earned a guaranteed $30 million for an unscored exhibition.

In his third non-professional encounter that year, he defeated Don Moore.

Boxing: Is Floyd Mayweather running out of money? | MarcaBut the American landed a second staggering exhibition for another appearance in Japan, having been approached by promotion RIZIN.

He would take on Japanese MMA fighter Mikuru Asakura in a boxing fight, but it was to be just three rounds of three minutes, a breeze for the regular twelve-round king.

Bu it was upon discovering the purse he would receive that sent the boxing world into a frenzy.

He had managed to negotiate $20 million for his latest comeback appearance, a staggering fee given he wouldn’t even risk his perfect record.

It was expected he would breeze past his Japanese opponent, given his sensational talent and natural ability, despite being past his prime years at the age of 45.

A huge crowd packed into the venue in Saitama, a sign that star power and a chance to see the legend in action alone would still see him pick up purses.

Mayweather was under an illusion it would be routine, but he was caught by a surprising hand in a fast-paced opening round.

It was a big shot, and a big shock that he had been clipped, given his defensive skills were nothing short of perfect throughout his career.

But that was the one and only time of real adversity as he rallied in the short format and began to show his true class.

And he earned his money and impressed the crowd in the second round as he upped the tempo and began landing at will.

The final seconds of the second period ticked away, but the breakthrough moment came.

Mayweather landed a left hand which shook his opponent’s boots but he shook his head.

Although just before the bell sounded, the former five-weight world champion unleashed a booming right hook.

Success Lessons from Floyd Mayweather. « Money Matters with NimiIt found the target and sent Asakura on to the canvas on the seat of his shorts, and the fight was quickly stopped.

The short format failed to even go the distance, and Mayweather had pocketed $20 million for around six minutes of work.

It saw him earn a mind-blowing $3.3 million per minute of action, but it was little surprise to his team who had helped him reach that position.

He produced a simply incredible boast, insisting he was ‘stealing’ a living from his paid glorified sparring sessions.

“Why do you keep doing exhibitions? Why do you keep stealing money? Get out of my business,” he said directed at critics.

“Stay out of my money business and get yourself some money. This is so fun and so easy.

“Easy payday, easy pay cheque, easy opponent. That is all I do, line them up like bowling pins and I will knock them all down.

“And I am going to keep tricking them, you all keep fighting them hard fights but I’m gonna keep fighting in exhibitions and killing the game and stealing money.

“Legalised bank robbery, if you all keep paying I will keep playing.”

Mayweather has since appeared in the UK with a money-spinning bout against Aaron Chalmers in 2023, as well as taking on KSI’s brother Deji in the Middle East and holding two bouts against John Gotti III.

It is unclear if he now has any more plans to return, but his career revenue is simply jaw-dropping.

Floyd Mayweather has released a statement after a video emerged of him being attacked while out shopping in London.

The boxing icon was spotted visiting a jewellery shop in Hatton Garden when he was ambushed and chased by a mob.

Mayweather looked furious as he and his security team were pursued by a large crowd of people.

‘Money’, who was wearing a green jacket, was escorted out of the shop and bundled into a black 4×4 car.

The Sun report that he was targeted over his support for Israel amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza.

One witness told the British newspaper: “There were maybe about eight to ten people involved in going after him, and about 20 or 25 watching on.

“Floyd took a few hits during it, but his security was trying to push people back.

However, Mayweather has since come out and declared that nobody landed a blow on him.

“Let me set the record straight… there is no truth to the rumours going around,” Mayweather wrote on Instagram.

“I wasn’t punched or touched in any way. What you are seeing is just my security doing their job to keep things under control.

“I was in the UK for a quick 48-hour stop to do some shopping and unfortunately, people let jealousy and negativity fuel false stories.
