According to Forbes Magazine<\/a>, Floyd Mayweather’s net worth as of 2021 was $450 million dollars. As a result, he is the wealthiest boxer of all time. However, his total career earnings have surpassed $1.1 billion as of this writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Floyd is the 5th highest-paid athlete of all time, and one of only six athletes in history to earn more than $1 billion in their careers. Michael Schumacher is worth $1 billion; Jack Nicklaus is worth $1.15 billion; Arnold Palmer is worth $1.35 billion; Tiger Woods is worth $1.65 billion; and Michael Jordan is worth $1.9 billion.

In just two fights, Floyd made more than half a billion dollars. He earned $250 million after defeating Manny Pacquiao in 2015. In 2017, he earned $300 million by fighting Conor McGregor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Floyd handed off his checking account balance to an ESPN reporter in a memorable incident in 2013 just before his fight against Saul Alvarez. He proudly displayed his $123 million checking account balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Floyd was routinely (and by far) the most paid athlete in the world during his prime boxing years. He could easily earn $150 – $300 million per year when he fights, despite having very few endorsement deals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Floyd made a staggering $300 million between June 2014 and June 2015. He earned $300 million between June 2017 and June 2018, the majority of which came from his August 2017 boxing tournament with Conor McGregor.
