Even highly successful athletes with substantial earnings can face severe financial difficulties if they fail to manage their finances responsibly, as demonstrated by Floyd Mayweather's $7.3 million IRS tax lien and $340 million lawsuit, which resulted from his pattern of high spending and poor financial planning despite his $402 million claimed real estate empire.

50 Cent EXPOSES How Floyd Mayweather Went BROKE After Massive $100M Debts!Añadido:
Um, even Floyd like like when you make yourself like we got issues over anger, he's still the best fighter out there [music] until somebody beat him. That's who he is.
>> Do you think he should step back in the ring?
>> I think he got to right now because the money gone.
>> So the money's really gone.
>> Yeah, that's what you think is fight, get the money, spend the money, fight.
>> All that money and it took been two years. So, is it just his overhead is so high on a [music] dayto day, monthto month? Like >> I don't I don't even want to talk about like with the lifestyle that money is gone. Trust me. Now it's like you call him, he'll be at your you know your local hosting [music] in a nightclub cuz you need that action right now.
Wow. [music] Are Floyd's comments potentially in breach of contract? He could blow the whole fight up and never fight and also have taken a cash advance on the fight he may not ever have. He's broke. I'm sorry. It's just the truth. Floyd is so badly hurting for money that this is the stuff he's doing. Knowingly signing contracts for a pro fight just to go and publicly undermine it while taking a cash advance. Essentially going, "Cool.
I need that money now. Ah, who cares about the fight?" Floyd Mayweather is currently under heavy financial strain [music] with reports claiming the IRS has filed a lean on his properties due to unpaid taxes [music] amounting to nearly $7.3 million from the years 2018 and 2023. [music] >> Mayweather is being targeted by the IRS over unpaid [music] taxes with some of his properties and assets being held on lean until the full balance is paid [music] off. And if not, said assets will be fully taken away. This report [music] comes from Business Insider, but is also now being reported by Ring Magazine in which they revealed that the IRS has filed a lean versus Mayweather in Las Vegas, [music] currently putting a hold on Mayweather's Vegas property due to unpaid taxes stemming from 2018 [music] and 2023 that have now ballooned to $7.3 million.
>> This is not a minor problem being exaggerated. It involves the government formally stepping in and putting a hold on property in Las Vegas until the outstanding amount is paid. And if it remains unpaid, those assets could be seized.
>> You think he's talking this trash because he wants a rematch? Do you think he wants?
>> Absolutely.
>> You think he wants a rematch?
>> Look, another reason why he's crawled out of his rock. [music] >> He needs money.
>> You think he needs money?
>> Absolutely.
>> He's always flossy.
>> It's absolutely He needs money.
Once again, come on. Fighters like that always go broke.
>> He's always [music] spending, so I guess.
>> Absolutely. Look, he's not fighting anymore, so that big money is not coming in. Look at Look at what happened to Mike Tyson. He He made what? $500 million. You think you can't spend $500 million overnight? Absolutely.
>> Yeah. What makes this situation even more troubling [music] is the timing as it comes at a point when Floyd Mayweather is already [music] facing scrutiny over his business activities and his planned fight with Manny Pacquiao.
>> He's like, "Mayweather's [music] broke."
>> I said, "No." He's like, "No, really.
Mayweather is broke." I don't know if it's true, right?
>> This is what this guy told me. I'm like, "How could he be broke?" [music] He's like, "Yo, he spends like crazy."
>> Yeah.
>> Spends like crazy.
>> I mean, you only can go for so long. I mean, [music] and you're not fighting.
>> Yeah.
>> Because I don't see Mayweather even doing any goofy.
>> But, but you know, but you would think that your investments would continue to grow, right?
>> As long as you keep your spending under wraps.
>> While Floyd Mayweather described the rematch as only an exhibition, reports indicate he actually agreed to a professional fight, [music] which could create legal trouble if the agreement is not fulfilled. And at the same time, there are allegations that he used that very fight deal as collateral for a loan, raising further concerns about his financial situation behind the scenes.
>> Is that what's his feeling? But uh he signed a a real a real fight.
>> So it's for sure.
>> Yes. The the the contract that we signed is a real fight.
>> Real fight. Okay. Yeah. Cuz I know he said >> I wouldn't fight. I wouldn't fight an [music] exhibition.
>> No exhibition. It's either real fight or not.
>> Yeah. It's a real fight. Yeah.
>> Yeah. Um that's that's what he what that's the the sign.
>> So it's still happening then just to I to remember that >> but it's still on. It's still happening.
>> Oh yeah. We we [singing] did sign the so >> there's no reason why. I know.
>> Why wouldn't Yeah.
>> All right. On top of that, several gyms linked to Floyd Mayweather have reportedly closed due to unpaid wages and rent problems with Manny Pacquiao even stepping in to take over one location and relaunch it under a new name. [music] While staff are said to have walked out after not receiving their pay, adding further concern about how the business is being run. [music] >> I boxed everybody.
>> I boxed everybody. And it's so crazy.
Like, you know, I had I had a lot of great days. had a lot of bad days in the gym, but I tell them I never have bad paydays. [laughter] >> Demetri Demetri Celita told me a story that one time a big heavyweight, a known heavyweight challenged you. [music] You told Leonard to go get your bag and you dropped him with the body shot >> in a boxing gym, it don't count. You have good days, you can have bad days.
You know, a lot of guys, a lot of guys, a lot of times guys do good in the gym.
You know, they be happy. They feel like they if you doing good, if you doing good with Floyd Mayweather in the gym, oh, I won a world title. I won a world title. Well, you you got to really look at this now. Slow down. You go home to an apartment. You know, I go home to a palace. There's a difference.
>> Definitely.
>> You know, when you when you say your name, when they say these fighters name, they say thousands and millions. When you say money made, you say billions.
>> At this point, [music] several groups are involved, including the IRS, business partners, and investors, all likely demanding clarity at the same time. And for Floyd Mayweather, who built his image on wealth and strict financial control, this situation puts that reputation under direct pressure.
>> All that money to the IRS.
>> How much does he owe? [music] >> It's in the 20 plus million dollar range.
>> It's a lot of money, man.
>> But it's not something that he's been uh it's not like deception.
>> No, >> it's just neglect to to pay.
>> Neglect. And it's also like I think and there is like a truth to this. He makes so much money. There's probably a point when they're like, "Hey, it's time to pay your taxes." And you go like, "All right, here's a check [music] for $25 million. That's an incredible amount of money." And then they go, "That's true, but you owe 50 more." And he's just like, [music] "That's that can't be right.
>> I've given you $25 million."
>> Yeah. He's bought over 100 luxury cars from the same dealer and always pays in cash.
>> He has 15 million worth of cars.
>> Congrat. [music] The lack of response from Floyd Mayweather and his legal team only increases the uncertainty as there are many complex factors involved and nothing about the situation appears straightforward [music] and whether it is settled quietly or grows into a larger legal and financial dispute. [music] It is clear this is one of the most serious challenges he has faced outside the ring. [music] I don't know if Mayweather did that, but you can you can you can put a non-refundable attachment on this and be like, "All right, you [music] can, hey, I need an advancement for training. I need3 $4 million or whatever for training [music] expenses." And if they agree to say, "Yeah, and he put in a contract that is non refundable, he it's free money." And just as everything around Floyd Mayweather starts to look like a paperwork mess ready to blow up, Timothy Bradley steps in [music] and instead of reacting with panic, he suggests taking a step back, saying this could simply be business unfolding exactly how Floyd planned it.
[music] As Bradley is not blindly defending the situation, but explaining it from a fighter's perspective, pointing out that those upfront payments [music] can act as leverage when structured properly and hinting that if Floyd secured funds in advance and set things up strategically, then changing from a professional bout to an exhibition may not be disorder. It could actually be a calculated move.
>> It's free basically free money. [music] So, we know, you know, Mayweather was uh, you know, it's been reported, I should say, allegedly that, you know, he's been, [music] you know, a little upside down on some of his taxes and and some of his properties and he need to, I guess he need to come back and fight and take care of that.
Well, he got some cheese [music] from that advancement. And I'm thinking this is exactly the kind of move people expect [music] from Floyd Mayweather.
Because while others see confusion, Timothy Bradley is suggesting Floyd may already be thinking several steps ahead.
Managing pressure, handling obligations, and reshaping the situation to match where he is right now as a 50-year-old fighter who doesn't want unnecessary risk unless it fully makes sense. But the situation still gets complicated.
Because even Bradley admits that if a real professional fight was signed, then it has to be honored as it is and it cannot simply be changed halfway [music] without possible consequences.
>> I just know that that money he received, I'm pretty man. Damn it. I'm I don't know for sure, but damn it, I'm probably about [snorts] I know I'm 85 90%. [music] I'm telling you because he wouldn't I don't think he'll be [music] doing this. You know, this is business. So, he's just saying I understand it was a real fight, but now I want to change it. I want [music] to change it now. I got my advancement.
Now, I want to change it.
>> So, now there is a clear tension where Floyd Mayweather may be acting more like a businessman while the system around him [music] still treats him like a fighter. And that clash is where things can start to get complicated [music] with Timothy Bradley suggesting that Floyd may have already dealt with some of these financial concerns through [music] upfront payments which changes the story from panic to calculated planning. [music] But at the same time, the external pressure does not go away as the IRS contracts and business partners continue to watch closely. So the real question is no longer just what Floyd intends to do, [music] but whether he can actually reshape everything around him to fit that plan.
And based on his history, it is not something you can completely rule out.
>> Right now, Floyd's at the same Floyd that he was back in the day. So >> um you know, maybe he's a little bit older and and he's not moving as much.
And you know that when you get a little bit older, sometimes [music] you have the same foot movement and stuff like that and and you're able to get hit with certain shots. So maybe Mandy has a chance to to get in there and do some stuff. But Manny also had some seem like some complications with um I don't know if he had some kind of a stroke or something and a sparring or something like that.
>> I thought I seen.
>> So I mean there's stuff going on with him too as well. So you know we will see. [laughter] And just as Timothy Bradley is [music] breaking everything down like a business discussion, Shane Mosley comes in with a very different tone. Not focused on contracts or money splits, [music] but on pure fight reality. And it stands out because he has shared the ring with both fighters. So he speaks with experience rather than hype. And he doesn't make bold claims. Instead, he sounds careful, almost cautious, as if he understands the situation too well to be overly confident, pointing out that Floyd Mayweather may not be the same physically anymore, [music] possibly a bit slower and easier to hit, which immediately makes people think that Manny Pacquiao could have an opening.
But then he balances it by noting that Pacquiao may also be dealing with his own problems like training issues and physical wear, turning the whole picture upside down again, where neither fighter looks fully fresh. And suddenly the [music] focus shifts from who is better to who has less decline. While Mosley also revisits their styles to remind everyone why this matchup has always been so difficult to [music] predict in the first place. The more or the harder puncher was Manny Pacquiao, but the most difficult was uh Mayweather.
>> Okay.
>> As far as you know, his IQ, >> you know, he had a better IQ, but Manny had a harder working uh [music] harder working um you know, repetition where he'll come at you, he's working hard, he's trying to get you, whereas Mayweather is more technical and will sit there and pick you apart. Manny Pacquiao brings non-stop volume, chaos, [music] and pressure. While Floyd Mayweather is the type of fighter who adjusts in real time and solves problems midfight, like he is calculating every move. And when Shane Mosley explains that Floyd was the harder fighter to figure out, but Pacquiao was the heavier puncher, [music] it sums everything up in one line. one style breaking you down mentally and the other overwhelming you physically. And he even brings up the moment he hurt Floyd, almost reflecting on how a single opening can change everything if it is not taken, which ties directly into Floyd's [music] style, where one missed chance disappears for good. And when you apply that to the present versions of both fighters with slower reactions and less room for mistakes, the idea of a rematch stops feeling like unfinished history and starts feeling like a completely new fight under familiar names. Because the real question is no longer who they used to be, but who they still are now. Yeah, you know, um if you ask me [music] as a boxer, uh I don't need somebody to push me to work hard, work more, but [music] I do I did I did I always put that in my mind when I [music] when I'm in training. Um I have to do extra mile to uh to get that condition. Just as Shane Mosley lays everything out like a tactical breakdown, [music] Manny Pacquiao steps in with a calm, controlled tone that carries more weight precisely because there is no hype or noise behind it, only quiet certainty as he first talks about humility, [music] discipline, and faith, giving the impression the conversation will stay reflective. But then he shifts directly to the core issue, pointing out that they signed a real fight and an advance was already paid, [music] asking what else is there to debate. And that becomes the strongest form of pressure, not through insults or drama, but through simple facts [music] stated clearly. Because while others are discussing different scenarios, Pacquiao is treating the situation as already decided with no version of events where it becomes an exhibition [music] without changing the entire meaning of the agreement.
>> Propose of exhibition that was long time ago uh a year after our first fight but I didn't agree and then uh I I want real fight. So he signed what what I signed um he signed a real fight and I signed a real fight and he got his advance. So uh there's no reason to uh make excuses of that. [music] So that's that is true.
Manny Pacquiao then reinforces his position in the same calm, steady [snorts] tone with no excuses or uncertainty, just a direct stance that's hard to dispute because there's no emotional back and forth to latch on to.
[music] And at the same time, he describes pushing himself through intense training, [music] including long, high volume sessions in camp as if preparing for a full-scale fight rather than a staged event. And that contrast becomes very clear without him ever raising his voice because on one side there are talks of adjustments, negotiations and possible changes. While on the other side there is a fighter fully committed to the original agreement and training for a real contest, making it less about money or [music] contracts and more about who is truly preparing for the fight that was promised. with Pacquiao making it clear he is already operating at that level.
>> Well, we all look forward to that.
>> I mean I mean I mean he signed he signed a Korea [music] fight and he got his sedan. So then now makes excuses. No, you know [laughter] >> that's where everything comes together [music] and starts to clash. Business versus obligation, strategy versus expectation, legacy versus reality.
Because Floyd Mayweather may still be trying to manage the situation the way he always has by adjusting terms, protecting his position, and shaping outcomes in his favor. But this time, the situation is more complex with too many people involved and constant public attention, making every decision carry legal, financial, and reputational consequences.
And even though his career has been built on staying ahead of pressure, this may be one of those rare moments where the pressure comes from all sides at once, which raises a bigger question beyond whether the fight happens, [music] focusing instead on what version of Floyd is actually being seen now, [music] the longtime strategist in full control or someone beginning to lose that control. While on the other side, Manny Pacquiao remains steady, [music] prepared, and consistent in his stance.
And that contrast only becomes sharper because one side keeps adjusting while the [music] other refuses to move.
>> But I'm I'm doing exhibitions [music] and I'm making 20, 25 million, 100 million for exhibitions. So, why would I come back and [music] fight and get a guaranteed 35 million when I'm doing exhibitions and getting 100 million?
