Money-Man Maywether Flashes Wad Of Cash After Two Minutes Bout In Japan

Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather has been showing off some of the financial fruits of his recent labor by flashing wads of yen he presumably earned when destroying Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in their New Year’s Eve bout. The boxing great, 41, plowed through 20-year-old just 140 seconds into their exhibition bout in Saitama.

The bout in Saitama, north of Tokyo, will be fought over three rounds of three minutes but there are no judges and no winner will be declared unless there is a knockout. The bout will also not count on the record of either fighter – allowing both men to retain their cherished unbeaten records – and is being promoted as a pure exhibition match.

The fight was decried as one of the biggest mismatches in sporting history as boxing novice Nasukawa face the former five-weight world champion who was undefeated in 50 professional fights.

Mayweather will care little about the outcry though, having pocketed a reported $9 million for an easy night’s work, working out at around $64,000 per second. He’s been showing off his earnings in typically flashy fashion, posting an Instagram video with two of his fleet of luxury cars, including a Rolls-Royce laden with wads of yen bills inside.

According to Forbes Mayweather has racked up around $760 million in career earnings and as we know the boxer has never been shy to show is vast wealth. He frequently takes to social media to show off his luxury lifestyle including set of mansions and array of luxury motors.

He reportedly spent a whopping $5.3 million in just one Los Angeles shopping spree toward the end of last year. There are rumors that the US fighter is looking to bolster his already impressive earnings with a lucrative bout against Russian MMA star Khabib Nurmagomedov.

This is the second time Mayweather has been coaxed out of retirement. Last year, he knocked out mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor in the 10th round of a super-hyped boxing match.

The UFC lightweight king’s agent, Ali Abdelaziz, recently said that Mayweather had been contacting him and was “begging” to fight Nurmagomedov, who said last month any match-up would be “twice as interesting” as the McGregor fight.
