In February of 2007, according to ESPN, Mayweather bought a Maybach car for $528 000 (he likes cars, a lot! He has fleets of them) and he borrowed around $ 415 000 for this particular car at 16% annual interest from JP Morgan.
Nothing wrong with taking a loan, often it can be a prudent business move, even for the wealthy, but why is a man who has just earned $8 million dollars three months prior having to pay a ridiculously high annual interest rate of 16%? (As a comparison the prevailing Libor rate at the time was about 5.1%)
This tells you one of two things A) His business acumen and negotiating skills are non-existent or B) JP Morgan knew that he was a risky client and therefore it warranted the massive interest rate of 16% pa.
So what happened to the loan? “Money” Mayweather stopped paying the $9 000 monthly instalments for the car a year later and JP Morgan had to repossess the car, sell it for $196 000 and sue Mayweather.
I'm reaching for the BS flag on this one. He couldn't be that stupid could he?

Let's wait until Manuel accepts. In case he doesn't think I have the funds to get him a plane ticket (Exhibit A).

Here's an interesting article that should silence those saying he might be making a good business decision asking for a payment plan:

At this point, despite the obvious flags and mounds of speculation, it doesn't sound like the IRS themselves think he's broke.
If he was broke, they'd probably grant him the payment plan.

Ok.... I will say this one more time.
If if he had liquid investments, he could borrow against them for less than half what the IRS charges.
Take it from greaser, mayweather is not liquid. He will be broke when he can't fight anymore.

Ouch, that was brutal. Not good. If he's that dumb, he's most likely in the poor house already.
One thing I'll say about Mike Tyson. The guy has a great memory. He studied the game and could tell you about old school boxers, different styles, rules, etc. He's also quite an orator.

What are the odds Manuel would take the challenge? This bitch hasn't made good on anything. Pretty fukking sad.

The mega rich are the real victims in our society. Just go into a political thread and see what i mean. This guy could surely use a nice tax break.

Apparently, slimeball Floyd Mayweather had no problem breaking through the defenses
of the women that he beat and battered. He is an illiterate woman beater that is not deserving
of anyone's respect.

Totally agree, maybe there is some truth to the rumours that he only keeps cash and a single checking account. He never would have come out of retirement for this farce of a fight if he weren't going broke.
