JAKARTA - Floyd Mayweather is known to often show off his assets on social media. But, he insists, the money earned throughout his boxing career doesn't make him a bad guy.
Mayweather's fortune is believed to be in the region of £ 510 million. This figure will add up as he prepares to take on YouTuber Logan Paul later this year.
Mayweather and Paul were originally scheduled to fight on February 20 yesterday. However, it has been pushed back to a new date that has not been announced.
It is estimated that the pay-per-view clash between the two people will earn Mayweather a lucrative sum of $ 100 million (IDR 143.7 billion).
Speaking on the Dispute Entrepreneur Podcast, the boxing icon defends his attitude toward money.
"Just because I talk about money doesn't make me a bad person. I like to have better things in life - money doesn't create me, I create money", Mayweather said as quoted by the Daily Star, Sunday, March 21.
"I love to feed my family, we can't feed our family just by saying, I love you", he continued.
"Money has put us in a position to have better things in life so that we can travel and have fun, live life, and experience different things".
"When you can make a lot of money, you can do those things".
Mayweather's last fight came in 2018 when he beat featherweight kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in an exhibition match. His last professional fight occurred the year before when he beat UFC star Conor McGregor in Las Vegas.
Many have questioned Mayweather's decision against Paul, who is actually a YouTuber.
"I told you, I am an entertainer, not just a fighter", the 44-year-old explained his reasons for this fight.
"(It's) something different, something I don't mind doing, and something people want to see.
"I think we have a six-round fight and I think it will be very entertaining, and people will love it".
