Floyd Mayweather‘s nickname-“Money”-isn’t just a catchy moniker. It’s a brand built on dominance, both in the ring and at the box office.
Across a 21-year undefeated career, Mayweather earned over $1.67 billion, and his daughter, Yaya Mayweather, is making sure the world remembers it.
Antonio Brown gets jumped during a massive brawl after a boxing event
In a recent Instagram post, she celebrated her father’s legacy by pointing out a jaw-dropping statistic: four of the five most successful pay-per-view fights in boxing history all belong to Floyd Mayweather.
In doing so, Yaya didn’t just praise her father-she sent a subtle message to fellow legends like Canelo Alvarez, Mike Tyson, and even Jake Paul, whose names often surface in modern boxing debates. While those fighters have found their own levels of stardom and revenue success, Yaya made it clear who still wears the financial crown.

According to the Ring Magazine graphic Yaya shared, Mayweather’s 2015 fight with Manny Pacquiao tops the all-time PPV chart with 4.6 million buys and over $600 million in total revenue. His 2017 bout against Conor McGregor follows closely behind with 4.3 million buys and similar revenue.
In third place is his clash with Oscar De La Hoya (2.8 million PPVs, $165 million), while his 2013 victory over Canelo Alvarez is fourth with 2.2 million buys and $150 million in earnings. The fifth spot belongs to Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield‘s 1997 rematch, which sold 1.95 million PPVs and generated $180 million.
Mayweather vs Canelo: The rivalry continues-at the bank
Yaya accompanied the post with a cheeky comment: “b**h my daddy that thang too.”* And she’s not exaggerating-Mayweather’s career PPV total sits at a staggering 24 million units, with total earnings approaching $1.5 billion.
However, Canelo Alvarez may be closing the gap. His business manager, Richard Schaefer, recently told The Ring that Canelo could become boxing’s first true billionaire, citing his financial savvy and massive new deal with Saudi Arabia’s Turki Alalshikh.
That four-fight agreement is reportedly worth $500 million, and Canelo has already earned more than $600 million throughout his career.
Schaefer praised Canelo‘s approach, saying: “Canelo is, without any question, the smartest businessman in boxing I have ever met… He’s going to be the first fighter to break the billion-dollar net worth.” Unlike Mayweather-whose total income surpassed $1.2 billion but whose net worth is closer to $400 million-Canelo‘s financial strategy appears to be more conservative and long-term.
With an expected payday of $100 million for his upcoming bout against Terence Crawford, Alvarez‘s trajectory is clear. “If we talk about money, it’s never enough,” he told reporters. “But I still enjoy boxing. That’s why I’m here.”
So while Yaya Mayweather‘s post rightfully defends her father’s legendary accomplishments, the landscape of boxing’s richest star may shift in the coming years.
For now, though, the numbers don’t lie-Floyd Mayweather still reigns supreme, and his daughter is making sure everyone remembers.
Mayweather’s pay-per-view legacy faces its biggest challenger yet
As the sport evolves and mega-fights shift toward Saudi Arabia and digital platforms, the financial bar set by Mayweather is one only a select few can even dream of reaching.
Whether Canelo becomes boxing’s first billion-dollar man remains to be seen, but what’s certain is this: Floyd Mayweather‘s financial dominance wasn’t just luck-it was a blueprint, one his daughter continues to proudly share with the world.

Dodgers’ pitching continues to crater in latest loss: ‘Battling with what we got’
LOS ANGELES — Andrew Friedman didn’t sugarcoat it. There was hardly much of a way to. The Los Angeles Dodgers president of baseball operations was succinct in summing up the state of the club’s pitching, which has once again been whittled by injuries.“Not fun,” Friedman said.The Dodgers’ two star free-agent starter signings — Blake Snell and Roki Sasaki — are hurt. So is Tyler Glasnow, one of last year’s big prizes. Each of the Dodgers’ top four right-handed relief leverage options — Blake Treinen, Evan Phillips, Michael Kopech and now Kirby Yates — are also among the 14 pitchers who reside on the injured list. Not fun, indeed. Even a club seemingly teeming with pitching depth on paper to start the season is feeling the effects.AdvertisementThe ensuing domino effect has led to ugly results. No team in baseball has asked […]
