Yeah. Leaked.

It gets "leaked", and then next thing you know she's on Celebrity Big Brother having a chat with Audley.

One is "yeah baby" and i cant remember what fight it was but another i heard is "thats right baby"

Floyd's monthly bills must be astronomical. For a start, there' the upkeep on his presumably enormous mansion, the staff required to maintain it. All the cars he owns will be depreciating in value from the minute he buys them, so are a terrible investment.

Then there's the huge retinue of people he employs, many of them it seems just to blow smoke up his arse (and god knows what else) - the cost of his training camps, the money he fritters away gambling, parties, hiring entire floors of hotels.

I'd say a million a month is quite conservative myself.

I'll bet he keeps very little tab on how much is going out, because so much is coming in.

If Tyson can end up broke, then so can floyd, absolutely no doubt, the man is a bell-end with a ghetto mentality toward money, which is to brag about it, and spend as much as possible to demonstrate just how rich you are, both recipies for ending up broke, as they attract sharks who want to rip you off, and mean you are consistently spending money.

A great boxer Floyd certainly is, but he appears to be an entirely reprehensible human being.

I really can`t see how Floyd won`t be just another in a long line of Athletes that go from poverty to unimaginable riches and back to being not quite so poor again.
It does seem impossible to burn your way through obscene amounts of money in such a relatively short space of time after retirement,but history is littered with modern examples of how easy and likely it is.
Enjoy it while it lasts Floyd,and even if you could by class you wouldn`t understand why you`d want it.

Questionable in a gay or straight kind of way.

Fair enough, I just find most blokes pretty dull and boring.

YEH . He definetly comes across has a bellend , but is it an act for the cameras , ,

it is indeed an act.

it's hard work not belting them "hoes" whilst the cameras are rolling,

I take the point of the comparison with Tyson, what I would say in response though is that Tyson's purses were divided up with managers and promoters. Floyd doesn't have such "problems", he gets the lion's share. So arguably he won't run out of money later in life because there is so much of it, but if you disregard the amount (whatever it is that he has banked when he hangs up the gloves) and base the "he'll go broke" argument upon his disregard for looking after his money properly, I wouldn't argue. Looking back, I still find it astonishing that Tyson, Holyfield and Bowe all ended up totally broke.

It happened to Ali too, hence him carrying on fighting when he was clearly past it and harming his health. I recall reading an Ali biography which covered the post-retirement financial mess which some decent human beings tried to sort out for the great man. They found themselves awash with the legacy of two decades worth of wheeling and dealing by Ali's hangers on. The decent folk trying to help Ali adjust to retirement figured they should be able to structure him a good and long term income based upon his image rights - he was, after all, the "greatest". They found, to their dismay, that over the years, the hangers on had stuck contracts under Ali's nose during training camp which he'd signed without a second thought. These contracts diluted away the value of Ali as a brand. I think one particular example given was an Ali endorsed aftershave. The general gist of the tale was, the hangers on hadn't a clue about business and lined their own pockets, Ali got practically nothing from the deal, meanwhile there were dozens and dozens of companies out there who owned the rights to Ali or the Ali brand in some way, shape or form. So sad to read about something like that going on. As I get older as a boxing fan (I'm 42) I see the cycle repeat itself (not that I was around when Ali was fighting) and its so sad.

On a slightly related note, I imagine if you could pull together the stats of how many former top boxers get divorced in retirement and the ex-wife ends up with the big detached paid for house, I think it would be an appalling statistic. I felt so sorry for how things turned out for Michael Brodie. She got the nice house, he ended up being a taxi driver after hanging up the gloves.

If this sort of thing were to happen to Money Mayweather in due course, it would have to rank up there as perhaps the biggest ever fall from grace in the sport.

As much as I like a nice looking woman, if she didn't want to know me when I was a nobody (which I am) I wouldn't want all that fake attention if I became famouse. Because they really are, when you think of it, brasses! Which you can get anytime. Same goes for those huge entourages, which are what I call 'rent o friends.' I would never fall for it. As soon as you lose or our money goes they'd be gone.

It amazes me they get all big headed and believe these people are with them because of who they are, not what they've got.

If you're going to spend all your money on people, spend it on family and real friends.

Ha ha your dead right ,

Gave it a lot of thought ,, and I think when i break it down , what he's got what hs earned and what he is going to earn , Him having a a dozen leggy , big titted nice looking , women around , all willing to blow him or shag him at the click of his fingers, and it cost him i dunno maybe 3-4 grand a week .
Thats like me having them all around and it costs me a tenner .

Now would i pay a tenner a week to have , a bunch of long legged buxom ladies , hanging round my house 24 /7 just waiting for the chance to blow me and shag me .

I think he spends more on them than that, but maybe Floyd's thrifty when it comes to birds?

I doubt it. How many of them are there? All wanting their hair done and their nails and nice shoes and jewelery, 'spending money' etc...

They're not my type Floyd's girl and I wouldn't be interested in that whole creepy gold digger vibe: wasn't there a scene in the All Access for the first fight where they all gave him a round of applause after he gave them a speech about how he'd learned from his mistakes or something?

But in answer to the question if I had the opportunity to have a harem and blow jobs on tap? Yeah. I could go for that. For a little while anyway. I'd just treat it as less of a chance to show off. But that's the brand isn't it? Mayweather is greedy, obscene and soulless. Look at him sucking up to that horrible old billionaire, just cos the c*nts rich. That was gross too. Actually, I always think of that Kanye West song when I see Floyd doing his thing, especially Pusha T's part.

Let's have a toast for the douchebags,
Let's have a toast for the assholes,
Let's have a toast for the scumbags,
Every one of them that I know
Let's have a toast to the jerkoffs
That'll never take work off
Baby, I got a plan
Run away fast as you can

She find pictures in my email
I sent this girl a picture of my dick.
I don't know what it is with females
But I'm not too good with that sh*t.
See, I could have me a good girl
And still be addicted to them hoodrats
And I just blame everything on you
At least you know that's what I'm good at

See, I always find
And I always find
Yeah, I always find somethin' wrong
You been puttin' up with my sh*t just way too long
I'm so gifted at findin' what I don't like the most
So I think it's time for us to have a toast

Let's have a toast for the douchebags,
Let's have a toast for the assholes,
Let's have a toast for the scumbags,

Baby, I got a plan
Run away fast as you can

R-r-ru-ru-ru-run away
Run away from me, baby

(Look at, look at, look at, look at you)
Run away from me, baby
(Look at you, look at you, look at you)
Run away
Run away from me, baby

[Pusha T:]
24/7, 365, pussy stays on my mind
I-I-I-I did it, all right, all right, I admit it
Now pick your next move, you could leave or live with' it
Ichabod Crane with that motherfuckin' top off
Split and go where? Back to wearin' knockoffs, huh?
Knock it off, Neiman's, shop it off
Let's talk over mai tais, waitress, top it off
Fools like vultures wanna fly in your Freddy loafers
You can't blame 'em, they ain't never seen Versace sofas
Every bag, every blouse, every bracelet
Comes with a price tag, baby, face it
You should leave if you can't accept the basics
Plenty hoes in a baller-nigga matrix
Invisibly set, the Rolex is faceless
I'm just young, rich, and tasteless
P!

[Kanye:]
Never was much of a romantic,
I could never take the intimacy.
And I know I did damage,
'Cause the look in your eyes is killing me,
I guess you've got another advantage
'Cause you could blame me for everything.
And I don't know how I'm a manage,
If one day you just up and leave
Yeah, I always find somethin' wrong
You been puttin' up with my sh*t just way too long
I'm so gifted at findin' what I don't like the most
So I think it's time for us to have a toast

Let's have a toast for the douchebags,
Let's have a toast for the assholes,
Let's have a toast for the scumbags,

You reckon a dozen high end escorts costs 3-4 grand a week?!! Your insane mate, one girl would cost more than that. You can bet your bottom dollar those girls are rinsing the shit out of it.

Its not like we're best buddies but I've worked quite a bit in his gym & seen what goes on there. Those girls defo aren't getting paid to follow him. More like they'd pay to be there!

I agree with Mick, I doubt he pays a penny in a fame hungry city like Vegas. Women will be itching to knock about with a true star.
