Fighter Turned Down Huge Amount Of Money To Box Floyd Mayweather

Former pound for pound number one Floyd Mayweather still commands big pay days.

Still drawing big attention for his boxing exhibitions. Even in retirement.

He’s had a few offers in recent times but reportedly has also offered various fighters some huge pay days.

The UFC’s Khabib Nurmagomedov according to his manager on the Mike Tyson podcast turned down $100 million to fight Mayweather.

In a boxing exhibition and under boxing rules.

Huge money.

Some amount to be turning down in fairness.

Khabib is understood to be in retirement and no longer interest in any combat. Promising his mother he would not fight again.

Fair play. It takes a lot to turn that kind of money down.

Mayweather next takes on Logan Paul in a boxing exhibition in Miami, Florida.
