Is Floyd Mayweather bankrupt? The boxing legend denied the journalist's report

Famous American journalist Stephen A. Smith in his latest statement announced that Floyd Mayweather, one of the richest boxers in world history, is completely bankrupt financially. This news caused a huge stir in the sports world.

According to the journalist, Floyd Mayweather recently invested $ 402 million in a real estate project in New York City. However, this investment turned out to be a fraudulent scheme, and as a result, the boxer suffered a large loss. As it turned out, this situation seriously affected the financial situation of Mayweather, who is recognized as the richest boxer of all time.

However, according to the popular Sportico portal, Floyd Mayweather's fortune is currently $ 1.15 billion. This figure was formed due to income from various competitions and commercial contracts throughout his career.

Also, the GiveMeSport publication estimated Mayweather's total career income at the beginning of 2025 at $ 400 million. Floyd took first place in this rating, the legendary George Foreman took second place, and the famous Mexican boxer Saul "Canelo" Alvarez took third place. Also on this list is Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk, who took 6th place.

Floyd Mayweather responded to the journalist's reports that he was bankrupt in a unique way: "I earn more than you earn because I'm still breathing," the boxer said.

He also gave a sharp and clear answer, describing his financial situation: "If owning two private jets, owning more than 100 real estate properties and having complete freedom in life is considered bankruptcy, then I urge everyone to follow in my footsteps."

Experts and fans are currently searching for the truth between these two conflicting reports and are closely monitoring the development of the situation.
