    I just watched the video of Floyd Mayweather counting one million dollars:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZhQs5I6sXc
    I have never seen that amount of cash in my life. I was surprised it could fit in a bag so small. I thought it would take up a small suitcase.
    The most I have ever held in my hand was £10,000 sterling, and that fitted in a small money box quite easily.
    What's the most amount of cash you have ever seen or handled?

    If I was rich enough I'd genuinely have a bed with the base made of money, not even kidding.

    I had to take out €800 for a bill last week - they gave me three notes, a 500, a 200 and a 100. I didn't even know there was a 200 and had only seen a 500 once or twice before. A €200 euro note? Who knew? Yup, we took pics, a lot of pics.

    I would hate Floyd Mayweather for being an arrogant jumped up prick but he does have the skills to back it all up.

    On topic: About E1300.

    Least he counted it instead of burning it like those K Foundation idiots. A few clatters to the head from Floyd might have knocked some sense into them.

    I work in retail so the most probably about €50k when banking takings. He's worth something like $300m, as much of a prick he seems I really have to admire him.

    About 4,500euro redundancy money. It fitted in a brown envelope.

    Love getting fired.

    Did he take the bag and smack his missus around with it?
    Great fighter but an truly horrible git.

    Glazers Out!

    No it was the other way round.
    Pacquiao ducked the fight with Mayweather as he didn't want random blood and urine testing before the fight. The reason being that to make the weight Pacquiao would need to be on steroids. Bob Arum has been blocking them fighting for years, even now when a May 2nd date has been set for it.
    I genuinely believe Mayweather wants it, and would beat Pacquiao easily.
    Its not a case of him ducking it as he fears losing his unbeaten record.
    He has 2 fights left on pay per view contract to fulfill and has stated many times he will retire after that. So its looking like Pacquiao in May, then Amir Khan in December.

    If it was ever possible for a straight man to get a boner watching boxing, it's Floyd Mayweather. He is a boxing genius. It's just incredible.

    And just to note, there is much more to the man than the promotional spin and the money team. He puts a lot into charity and into children that have limited chance at education or sport and did so from a very early stage. He just doesn't blow the trumpet loud on it.

    The plain fact is America is america. The rights or wrongs of America are not Floyd Mayweather's problem to resolve. He is not the correct person to charge with a responsibility to be a vehicle for social change. He was given this world. He didn't make it. The man does what he does the only way he knows how; through hard work and dedication. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

    Really respect him as a fighter, but as a person he's nothing short of an egotistical cnut!





























































































































    Wonder if he's good for a loan?

    I disagree, many people come from tough backgrounds just like Mayweather without growing up to be total assholes.

    Also, he has left a huge mark on his legacy by ducking Pacquiao when Pac was at his peak.

    The thing is, he gets a percentage of the pay for view money as well as prize money etc. While people will tune in to watch a guy win, its also known they tune to see a lad get beat. I'd suggest Mayweather is fully aware of the fact.

    Yeah, you would think with his money he could pay someone to count it :)

    The worst thing Mayweather did was tweet how his 'Money Team' would pay for Joe Fraziers funeral after Frazier died almost penniless.
