    Why does Floyd Mayweather have so many bodyguards?

    I thought he is suppose to be a tough guy but every picture i see of him, he usually has tons of bodyguards.

    Would you want someone hounding you every three seconds while you were in public? My guess is no. That's why he has protection

    Mayweather carries 100k cash on him at all times. He would get jacked in a heartbeat if he didn't have security.

    He really is an african prince who came to America to sow his royal oats, naturally as he is royalty he is surrounded by bodyguards.

    but seriously, the answer is: because he is afraid that Pacman is going to get him!

    The whole world would like to see him fight the 'Pacman'. Seems like something is holding him back from signing the contract. Surely it's not $$$ is it? This guy has tons already although I'm sure we've heard the stories of how much he enjoys to gamble in Vegas. Boxing is quickly becoming extinct with the UFC looming large and attracting a younger audience. They announced the first live UFC event here in Toronto last week at the Rogers Centre which will occur in April and over 55,000 seats have already been sold. Floyd needs to strike while their is still interest and sign this deal wth the Pacman...

    "Money" going broke Don't think so. However, he'd be worth more locked up. He has bodyguards to handle his business. He can't fight on the streets or its a felony. Easy target for big lawsuit so he has his "untrained" bodyguards hand out the ass whoopings.

    any pro with common sense has some form of security with them when they are out on the town. prevents problems. imagine you are a famous player out at a bar and ttwarrior comes running up at you, all 300 fat sweaty pounds begging for a handout so he can become an sbr pro. security seems pretty smart to have at that time.

    im sure he just looking out for himself.sure there are guys out there,who after a few cocktails,want to see how tough they are,and then that would be a lose-lose sitution for both parties.dont think it has anything to do with how tough he is ,think it is for his safety and the many lawsuits he would run into if he whopped the ass of every guy who got beer muscles on a friday night and wanted to see how long they would last with him

    The bodyguards are protecting the crowd from him, not the other way around.

    I met him at the Aria he was with a hot ass girl and he was decked in Gucci everything. He had two huge goons with him and he was waiting at the cashier. I see her put huge stacks in front of him and as I went up to him his goon intercepted but he told him it was cool and even let me take a picture with him. Had a good conversation and he is the champ so he doesn't care and FYI there is a reason they call him Floyd "Money" Mayweather.

    Professional athletes go broke all the time.

    Floyd doesn't seem like a very bright guy, he will blow his fortune eventually.

    all the jealous fools in this thread. Typical loser mentality bashing a champion for what he';s earned because their pathetic life isnt worth living. He's a ******* world champion as if he's scared to fight. He's worth a fortune ppl could rob him at gunpoint or kidnap him. As ppl said they could try to go after him for a lawsuit.

    Why would he go broke he's got so much money he could swim in it literally. He could always make money from endorsements or mega fights. PPL talk shit to make themselves feel better.
