The rich keep getting richer. Prior to Sunday's NFC Championship Game between the Atlanta Falcons and Green Bay Packers, Floyd Mayweather placed a $30,000 bet on the first half spread, and came away with an additional $25,000 when the Falcons took a 24-0 lead over the Packers at halftime. 

While it was an impressive move by Mayweather, it didn't come close to his most lucrative winning bet...of the weekend! On Friday, Money Mayweather made $45,000 when he took the Golden State Warriors as 5.5-point favorites over the Houston Rockets. The Warriors cruised their way to the 125-108 victory. 

The very next day, Floyd threw down $100,000 on the Cincinnati Bearcats and their 16.5-point spread over the Tulane Green Wave. It was incredibly close, but the Bearcats rolled the Green Wave to tune of a 78-61 win. How much did Mayweather make from that bet? Just $90,000. 

So, if you're keeping track at home, the newly retired Mayweather made $160,000 over the last three days, and didn't even break a sweat. How does that make you feel?
