Will Floyd Mayweather ever fight again? According to Mayweather himself, no. He has said over and over and over again that he’s 100 percent retired.
No one actually believes him, though, and media outlets continue to ask him about it. So in an effort to try and make his answer to the retirement questions crystal clear, he came up with a new response while speaking with talkSPORT recently. Outside of giving the same reasons he’s been giving for wanting to stay retired—“It’s time for me to let the young guys take over,” he said—he also provided some insight into his monthly income. He claims that he still makes more than a million dollars every single month now, even without a regular paycheck from boxing.
“I will make seven figures a month for the rest of my life,” he said. “I’ve made some very smart investments, and I’m living very comfortably. My children are going to school and will be going to college soon, and that’s what is most important to me right now. I’m just blessed way beyond belief.”
Given how much money he has made during his career, it’s not hard to imagine Mayweather making tons of money off interest alone. But more than a million dollars every month? Yeah, there’s really no reason for him to even think about fighting again.
