Floyd Mayweather is a retired boxer. But while he actually boxed, he made a lot of money.

Mayweather wanted the world to know just how much money he made, showing off a $100 million check on Instagram.



Mayweather also called out everyone who has made fun of him. Many believe Mayweather doesn’t know how to read, but Mayweather himself claims he’s literate. 

Mayweather retired with a 49-0 record. He won 26 of his fights by knockout.
