Not that he needs any more money after earning a reported $180 million thanks to his megabout with Manny Pacquiao, but Floyd Mayweather appears to have made half a million dollars over the weekend without throwing a punch.
The undefeated boxer, famous for his rather large wagers, posted a photo to Instagram with four bets that he placed.
Mayweather went in on Houston Rockets-Los Angeles Clippers Game 6, the Gennady Golovkin-Willie Monroe Jr. bout, Atlanta Hawks-Washington Wizards Game 6 and Rockets-Clippers Game 7. And he won them all.
If Mayweather is to be believed that he bet $350,000 and won $827,272, his total earnings are around $477,000. Not bad for a weekend, but also not much by Mayweather's lofty standards.
Of course, we don't know whether Mayweather had some losing bets that he declined to share on social media.
The man who nicknamed himself "Money" was Forbes' highest earning athlete in 2014, earning $105 million. He nearly doubled that in his fight against Pacquiao, which had four million pay-per-view buys and lasted all of 36 minutes.
Mayweather has found creative ways to spend his money, like extravagant meals and luxurious mouthguards, but one thing he can't buy is love. Fans vociferously booed Mayweather when he was shown on the Jumbotron at Oracle Arena during Game 5 of the Warriors-Grizzlies series.
