Floyd Mayweather, the boxing champion with a 50-0 career record, has once again shown that he has no qualms about splashing the cash. The American boxer, who boasts on his social networks of his acquisitions (he collects high-end cars, watches, poses with wads and wads of bills…), is one of the sportsmen who has earned the most money in the history of sport (more than 1.2 billion).
If in October it was revealed that he had spent more than $402 million to buy 60 New York buildings that will have more than 1,000 affordable homes in Upper Manhattan and that in November he acquired a stake in the Versace Mansion in Miami, now he has spent more than $20 million of his wealth to acquire a building on Sixth Avenue, according to TMZ.
This property is located on a corner at Sixth Avenue and 47th Street in Manhattan. It has offices, a diamond buying and selling store… and even a large billboard, the kind that delights tourists who flock to the Big Apple
“When I was young I used to shop at that Diamond store. I never thought I would end up owning this important property at the entrance to 47th Street.
