Floyd Mayweather: I’m thinking of numbers in my bank account

Floyd Mayweather has confirmed that his love of money and not any desire to reach 50-0 tempted him out of retirement and into tonight’s Las Vegas showdown against Conor McGregor.

Mayweather currently sits on 49-0, level with heavyweight great Rocky Marciano, following a glittering career which has yielded world titles in five different weight classes.

It is a record which has put Mayweather into the discussion when it comes to deciding the greatest boxer in history, although he already describes himself as TBE — The Best Ever.
