Undefeated retired boxing superstar and former pound-for-pound king Floyd "Money" Mayweather (49-0, 26 KO's) was seen in Los Angeles recently, flaunting his various luxury cars and talking about his wealth in a new video released to the public.
The video was shot by popular entertainment website TMZ.
Mayweather, along with his followers, first spent the night at Staples Center to watch the Los Angeles Lakers host the Washington Wizards. After which, they proceeded to the Hyde Lounge on Hollywood's Sunset Strip.
Mayweather showcased his Rolls-Royce Phantom with custom fitted alterations and his Rolls-Royce Drophead coupe as well as his Bentley Mulsanne. He also flashed a $2-million watch.
"I'm loving the retired life. Still making 7-figures a month due to smart investments," said Mayweather, who retired from professional boxing after his final bout against Andre Berto back in September of last year.
"I made some smart moves. It's not really bragging, I was just lucky. And I'm blessed way beyond belief."
Mayweather then proceeded to show off his staggering $4.8-million Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita, before leaving the scene.
Mayweather has was perennially considered the world's highest paid athlete, earning up to as much as $40-million per fight during his peak. He defeated Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao by unanimous decision in a 12-round welterweight bout in May of 2015 in what turned out to be the richest fight in boxing history. Mayweather made in excess of $200-million on that fight alone.
It is not uncommon in the sport of boxing, that high-profile prizefighters somehow blow away their earnings, and end up broke. But Mayweather continues to live lavishly post retirement, crediting his success to smart business moves.
"Money May all day, you know that. Smart investments -- that's all," said Mayweather.
Although Mayweather has been retired for a few months now, some observers believe he will eventually get out of retirement to seek a fight against middleweight king Gennady Golovkin in the near future, or another high-profile rematch with Pacquiao.
Pacquiao is currently also in Los Angeles training for his third fight with American Timothy Bradley which takes place April 9 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
