Many a sports fan has come home from a wild weekend in Las Vegas with a significantly lighter wallet.
But Floyd Mayweather‘s insane spending spree when attending the Super Bowl in 2024 will take some beating.
‘Money’ lived up to his moniker as he filmed a visit to a bank with his entourage, taking wedges of tightly packed bills in bags.
“Just getting ready, Super Bowl weekend in Las Vegas, we had to get the ones, make it rain, check it out,” Mayweather says to the camera as he gestures to his crew carrying the piles of cash.
The YouTube clip, posted by via All Urban Central, then shows the boxing great dropping a wedge in Louis Vuitton before giving an in-depth tour of part of his watch collection — worth an estimated $100 million.
In it, he reveals that he brings a luxury timepiece for every day he is away traveling in special cases.
Mayweather made his name in Las Vegas – beating greats like Manny Pacquiao, Canelo Alvarez, and Oscar De La Hoya.
His 2015 collision with Phillipino icon Pacquiao in 2015 brought in £333 million in pay-per-view sales — an all-time record.
The undefeated legend was not going to miss the chance to watch the first-ever Super Bowl in Sin City as the Kansas City Chiefs took on the San Francisco 49ers.
He booked out a plush suite at the Allegiant Stadium – costing a staggering $1.13 million.
“I don’t kiss ass and I never have to beg for nothing especially not to get a Super Bowl suite,” he wrote on Instagram.
“I don’t mind accepting invites at times, but one things for sure… The person that’s paying does all the saying.
“Therefore I get my own seats and suites so I can do what I want and invite who I want!
“I’m blessed to be taking 34 people to experience the 1st Super Bowl in Las Vegas! $1,131,000.00.”
Mayweather took part in exhibition fights against Aaron Chalmers and John Gotti III in 2023.
It was a far cry from his pomp but still netted him a huge tax bill of over $18 million.
“Just before I paid that light million and change for that little Super Bowl stuff, I had to pay the IRS aka Uncle Sam $18,047,181,” he shared on Instagram.
“This is what I owed in taxes while I’m retired so just imagine what I was paying when I was activated.”

As a Vegas resident, Mayweather is no stranger to a bet.
And Money clawed back some of his spend after putting down a massive wager.
He bet $95,000 on the Chiefs to win and took home $203,000 thanks to their overtime triumph.
Mayweather clearly learned his lesson after betting against Patrick Mahomes and wagering $10,000 on the Philadelphia Eagles to triumph in 2023.
With the same teams in action again in 2025, it will be interesting to see if the pugilist fancies Jalen Hurts to avenge his defeat or sticks with the hot hand.
There will be plenty of money behind the Chiefs as they chase a three-peat but most of the football world is praying Andy Reid‘s juggernaut can finally be stopped.
