Mayweather sends a message to his critics with his new private jet

Although the exact cost of this new Mayweather “toy” has not been disclosed, it is speculated to be a multi-million dollar investment, comparable to his first private jet, a $50 millionGulfstream G650 purchased in 2014. This first plane is primarily used for long-haul travel to exclusive destinations such as Monte Carlo, Hong Kong, Bali, Fiji and Tokyo.

Mayweather’s lifestyle is a reflection of his success in and out of the ring. Always with his personal touch of extravagance. With his new Air Mayweather 2, he continues to travel the world, flaunting his fame and fortune. This private jet is not only a means of transportation, but also a statement of his opulent lifestyle and his ability to let any criticism from his haters slide.

 

Tiger Woods revealed he arrived at Royal Troon following a sleepless flight induced by the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.

The 15-time major winner was flying from Florida to Scotland Saturday night for the 152nd Open Championship, which takes place at Royal Troon later this week, when the former President was shot at.

The 48-year-old admitted he wasn’t as fresh as he would have liked for his first practice round Sunday as he was engrossed by the coverage of the incident rather than catching up on his rest on the flight across the Atlantic.

‘I didn’t accomplish a lot because I wasn’t in the right frame of mind,’ Woods told BBC Sport Tuesday.

‘It was a long night [because of the assassination attempt] and that’s all we watched the entire time on the way over here.

‘I didn’t sleep at all on the flight, and then we just got on the golf course.’

Trump was left bleeding from his ear after being shot on stage at a rally in a horrific attack by a would-be assassin, later identified as 20-year-old Thomas Crooks.

A barrage of rifle rounds rained down shortly after the former president got up to speak on Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania, wounding Trump in the ear and killing retired fire chief Corey Comperatore.

Two other supporters were critically injured by stray bullets in the assassination attempt.

Trump was pictured repeatedly pumping his fist with blood dripping from his face while being swarmed by Secret Service agents. Moments later, he was rushed away to safety.

Woods has rarely engaged in politics during his career, preferring to remain publicly apolitical but he did reveal in 2018, during Trump’s term in office, that he had known the former president for a number of years before he took office.

‘I’ve known Donald for a number of years. We’ve played golf together. We’ve had dinner together. I’ve known him pre-presidency and obviously during his presidency,’ Woods told New York Times reporter John Branch.

At the time, he was further pressed about his relationship with Trump in light of the Republican candidate’s policies on immigration.

Well, he’s the President of the United States. You have to respect the office,’ he responded.

Woods also accepted the Presidential Medal of Freedom from Trump in 2019 at a time when many athletes were shunning invitations to the White House.

However, Woods has also golfed across the aisle as well. He has reportedly hit the fairways with former president Barack Obama, whose election as the first African-American president in 2008 was hailed as ‘incredible’ by the golf legend.

‘I think it’s absolutely incredible,’ Woods told CNBC, per ESPN, at the time. ‘He represents America. He’s multiracial.

‘I was hoping it would happen in my lifetime. My father was hoping it would happen in his lifetime, but he didn’t get to see it. I’m lucky enough to have seen a person of color in the White House…He would have cried. Absolutely. No doubt about it.’

Meanwhile, Woods took center stage Tuesday as he addressed the media ahead of the final major championship of the year where targets a coveted 16th victory.

However, while Woods still believes he has a shot at major triumph, insisting time again that he wouldn’t turn up at a tournament if he didn’t believe he could be competitive, this year’s results spell out a different story.

The golf icon missed the cut at both the PGA Championship and the US Open and while he battled through to the weekend at the Masters, he finished in 60th and last place.

Yet, Woods fixed his glare on those who asked him why we could expect anything different in the coming days on a course that he conceded will ‘eat you up’ if conditions turn.

‘I’ll play as long as I can play and I feel like I can still win the event,’ he said, brusquely.

When asked whether his belief has wavered, he was even more economical with his words. ‘No,’ came the blunt reply.

Woods has played just nine competitive rounds through 2024 but will still be the main attraction in Ayrshire this week.

‘I wish I had a little bit more under my belt but I’ve been battling some stuff physically,’ he said.

‘I want to save it for the majors. I don’t want to burn myself out pre-major and not be able to play.’

Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy and Xander Schauffele headline the betting board this week at The Open Championship, but there some other more unexpected names that could create an international sweat for Las Vegas oddsmakers – not to mention they’ll be keeping an eye on another familiar name.

On the eve of the opening round at Royal Troon, oddsmaker Nick Bogdanovich shared that his largest concern is a recent major winner, but likely not the one you’re thinking of.

“Wyndham Clark is getting a ton of action. Our biggest liability of the legitimate guys who can win,” Bogdanovich said. “Tony Finau and Cameron Young are also drawing strong action.”

Drew O’Dell, senior data analyst at BetMGM, pointed out one significant wager they have taken this week in the outright market that also fits the unexpected trend: $4,000 on Akshay Bhatia at +10000. That would net the bettor a $400,000 profit should the southpaw lift the claret jug.

Director of Race and Sports at The Borgata, Thomas Gable, is seeing yet additional variety as far as what beans are sprouting up at his shop.

“Our two biggest liabilities are Viktor Hovland and Collin Morikawa,” said Gable. “Hovland actually has the most tickets written on him for an outright winner of anyone in the field. It is both sharp and recreational play on Morikawa.”

Finally some consistency in production here, as renown Las Vegas golf oddsmaker Jeff Sherman is also seeing a lot of love for the 2021 Open champion. “Morikawa is leading in ticket count and money wagered,” said Sherman.

While the crop has seen a great deal of diversity in the outright market, some of the more familiar faces are showing up elsewhere on the prop betting menu.

“YES on Tiger Woods to make the cut has seen ample support,” said Sherman. Also noting that he has seen good two-way action on what Woods’ opening-round score will be. A similar story for O’Dell at BetMGM. “The most bet player to make the cut, as far as ticket count, is Tiger Woods at +200.”

Sherman went on to add that Ludvig Åberg is second in both categories and that jived with what Tristan Davis is seeing down the street at Mandalay Bay.

“The punters are giving Åberg another chance this week,” said Davis. Åberg had a two-shot lead heading into the final round at the Genesis Scottish Open last week, only to see it slip away on the inward nine. The 24-year-old Swede will be playing in his first-ever Open this week at Royal Troon. “I think there is a belief in (bettors) that the major win is not far away and they will continue to bet him as long as he keeps performing. He’s been the best bet in Nevada despite a slight betting drift in the price.”

O’Dell notes that Morikawa and Åberg are No. 1 and No. 2 at BetMGM for a top-10 finish. “They are first and second in terms of ticket count, Morikawa at +140 and Aberg at +115.”

While we see a consistent appetite for Morikawa and Åberg near the top of the odds board, the inconsistency continued among the longer shots.

“We also have some liability on Sepp Straka,” said Gable. “He was as high as +10000, which we saw some respected players take that price.”

Finally, a couple of other names bearing some fruit in the outright market at Mandalay Bay. “Another crowd favorite amongst the punters when majors come up is Brooks Koepka,” said Davis. “His odds for the Open are a lot higher than what we have seen with the three U.S. majors. That has not deterred the punters though and they have been more than happy to snap up the +4000 odds this week.”

The 20-year veteran oddsmaker and native Australian continued on. “Further down the page there is one to note: some action on Corey Conners this week. It’s recreational but worth noting as he mostly has been a player that has not made much noise in our books so interesting to see him pop up this week.”

Tiger Woods In Surgery After Single-Vehicle Car Crash in California

Interesting indeed. I actually took a stab with Conners myself this week. The short game is always a question mark, but he is one of the best ball-strikers in the world – and that was a similar storyline coming into The Open in 2016 for eventual champion, Henrik Stenson. Conners has made three straight cuts at The Open and finished 13th last week at The Renaissance Club.

Don’t forget about McIlroy, who is coming off of consecutive top-6 finishes in The Open and a fourth-place finish last week at the Genesis Scottish Open, where he won in 2023. Bogdanovich noted, “The YES on Rory for a top-10 finish this week is getting plenty of love.”

I played McIlroy for a top-10 finish myself and also went one step further on an outright win. Renowned golf architect Martin Ebert was behind the work done here at Royal Troon between the 2016 Open Championship and this year’s edition. He has also done quite a bit of work at Royal Liverpool, where McIlroy won in 2014 and finished sixth last year. Finally, Ebert has also done significant work at Hamilton Golf & Country Club in Canada where McIlroy has won the RBC Canadian Open (2019) and finished fourth earlier this season. Given this connective tissue, McIlroy’s history at The Open overall, and how he is playing currently, I believe the McIlroy crop will be a profitable one this week.

I am one of those on Morikawa, too. I also played Tommy Fleetwood, Tyrrell Hatton, Shane Lowry and fancied an extra long bomb on Emiliano Grillo, all in the outright market.

UPDATE:‘He’s not a past champion’: Woods hits back at Montgomerie and dismisses retirement talk

I received some reinforcement on my selections from Bogdanovich when I asked him who he personally liked this week. “I like Morikawa, Fleetwood and Hatton but I don’t bet a lot on this tournament. Too much luck involved,” said the wise Las Vegas veteran. “See Watson-Cink (Turnburry 2009), Lawrie-Van De Veld (Carnoustie 1999), etc.”

Right here at Royal Troon in 2004, Todd Hamilton is another prime example. Looking at the diversity in the outright winner market as we have noted above, it goes hand-in-hand with the sage insight Bogdanovich offers – maybe more randomness exists in this championship more so than any other.

 

An ex-lover may have fueled the legendary career of Serena Williams.

The tennis great recalled a relationship gone bad early in her career in an episode of ESPN’s new docuseries “In The Arena: Serena Williams,” which is airing on the network’s streaming platform.

“It was the first relationship that I had ever had but I was in my 20s, so you know, whatever. That was that. And then I go home, and he ghosts me. I got ghosted,” Williams said. “And it wasn’t even that serious, but it was like, I used that and I made it way more serious than what it was.”

Williams, who won 23 Grand Slam titles during her illustrious tennis career, took that as a reason to take her tennis game to an even higher level.

“So when he ghosted me, I used that as an opportunity to say, ‘He’s gonna regret this for the rest of his life,’” Williams said. “That was just the motivation I needed, just the excuse I used to go the extra mile. I’m gonna make sure that this person never forgets me. I’m gonna make sure that this person sees me everywhere for the rest of their life.”

She married Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian in 2017, a year and a half after the couple met in Rome.

    Crawford vs Madrimov: What has been said? 

    Speaking about the upcoming bout, Crawford said: “I cannot wait to get back in the ring in my fourth weight class and remind the world why I’m the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world.

    UPDATE:Robert Garcia Believes That Terence Crawford Will Be a Tough Opponent for Canelo

     

    “Israil Madrimov is a tremendous and entertaining fighter, but on August 3, he will be my next victim. This is the Terence Crawford era.”

     

     

     

     

    Madrimov’s promoter Eddie Hearn thinks that Crawford is underestimating his opponent. Hearn said: “I think they’re underestimating him. He’s extremely tough and he hits very hard.”And it’s all like, ‘Canelo after this.’ Don’t get me wrong. Crawford is the favourite in the fight, but Madrimov is a very, very tough fight.

    “He’s got great movement, he’s a fit, strong guy in his prime, and as I said, he punches very hard, and that’s not an easy fight.”

Martin Bakole has long been rather in the shadows of the heavyweight scene.

The Congolese boxer is a big problem for anyone in the banner division but has often struggled to get the fights he wants because of that, with promoter Ben Shalom once calling him ‘the most avoided man in boxing’. He hits hard and has a good engine but has not yet managed to get a shot at a world title.

Since then he has put together a solid string of wins over the likes of Mariusz Wach, former Olympian Tony Yoka and best of all Carlos Takam – whom he stopped in his most recent contest in October of last year.

Speaking to iFLTV, Bakole assessed his upcoming fight with Jared Anderson in the United States and vowed to ‘100%’ get the knockout.

“I’m a fighter and a boxer so I’m looking forward to seeing what ‘The Real Big Baby’ will bring.

He’s never fought someone on my level so this is his first test. He could come and surprise everyone but I don’t think so. This is my time. I’m looking forward to it.

Jaron Ennis is now the man to beat at welterweight after Terence Crawford made the decision to move up in weight.

Crawford became the single ruler in the division when he put in a career-defining performance against Errol Spence Jr last time out.

READ MORE:Robert Garcia Believes That Terence Crawford Will Be a Tough Opponent for Canelo

Going into the fight, many billed it as a 50/50 contest but ‘Bud’ dominated from the opening bell, dropping Spence three times until the referee called a halt to proceedings in the ninth round.

With that victory Crawford wrote his name into the history books as the first man to ever be undisputed champion in two weight classes in the four belt era – a feat that has now been matched by the ‘Japanese Monster’ Naoya Inoue and the heavyweight king, Oleksandr Usyk.

The 36-year-old then made it clear that he only wants legacy building fights before he hang up the gloves and targeted a clash three weight classes up against super-middleweight ruler, Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez.

With Canelo undecided about a Crawford bout claiming he won’t receive any credit for beating the naturally smaller man, ‘Bud’ has decided to move up one division to take on WBA super-welterweight champion Israil Madrimov in an attempt to become a four-weight world champion.

Ennis however believes he poses the toughest test to Crawford and wants his countryman to either move back down to 147 or stay at 154 to face him.

The 27-year-old has put in a string of eye-catching performances and boasts an undefeated record of 32 wins with 29 coming by way of knockout.

UPDATE:Is Terence Crawford vulnerable against Israil Madrimov?

Ennis could be forgiven for being bitter about Crawford chasing Canelo, but instead praised the fight as a ‘good’ contest in an interview with Fight Hub TV.

“It’s a good fight, two good fighters, it’s a good fight.”

Roy Jones Jr is regarded by many as one of the best to ever lace up the gloves, so is well qualified to judge the top fighters in the game today.

Arguably the most talent-stacked divisions in boxing are lightweight and super-lightweight, with the likes of Gervonta Davis, Shakur Stevenson, Vasiliy Lomachenko, Devin Haney and Teofimo Lopez all plying their trade there.

A potential lightweight unification fight which intrigues fans and offers a fascinating clash of styles is ‘Tank’ Davis versus Stevenson.

Most pundits are split as to who would come out on top – the precision punching power of Tank or the defensive skills of Stevenson.

Speaking to All The Smoke Fight, Jones was full of praise for both men, starting with Shakur,

“Shakur Stevenson is a very good fighter, but he’s got to learn and I hope he pays attention to this, his feet are good but sometimes they take him too far out of range to be able to come back and counter. The last guy he fought, the guy was a good puncher, so when he was jumping back he was jumping too far back out of range to where he couldn’t get couldn’t get something right away and for the fans it starts to look boring.

Floyd Mayweather, renowned for his extravagant lifestyle, recently made headlines again for his unique display of wealth at the Las Vegas Aces vs. Chicago Sky game. Known as “Money” Mayweather, he was spotted courtside with an extra seat specifically for his bag of money, an ostentatious move even by his standards.

During the game, which saw the Chicago Sky triumph over the Las Vegas Aces, Mayweather’s presence was hard to miss. Dressed in his typical flashy attire, he had a designated seat for a large bag filled with cash, symbolizing his moniker and love for opulence. This act was both a spectacle and a statement, reinforcing his public persona of unmatched wealth and luxury.

The game itself was a thriller, with the Sky defeating the Aces 93-85. Chennedy Carter led Chicago with an impressive 34 points, while Angel Reese secured her 16th double-double in 17 games with 13 points and 10 rebounds. The Sky held a significant lead at halftime, but the Aces fought back, briefly taking the lead in the fourth quarter. However, Carter’s clutch performance in the closing minutes ensured Chicago’s victory.

Mayweather’s presence added a layer of intrigue and spectacle to an already exciting game. His decision to bring a bag of money and give it its own seat was a clear demonstration of his larger-than-life persona. This move aligns with his history of flaunting his wealth, from luxury cars to private jets, and now, courtside displays of cash.

The scene also underscores Mayweather’s continued influence and relevance in popular culture. Even outside the boxing ring, he finds ways to stay in the limelight, often through grand gestures that capture public attention. His actions at the Aces-Sky game were no different, providing a talking point that overshadowed even the game’s dramatic moments.

Mayweather’s lifestyle, characterized by his new acquisition of a private jet and a collection of luxury cars, reflects his success and the persona he has cultivated over the years. His latest public appearance with the money bag not only entertained but also reinforced his image as a figure who lives and breathes extravagance.

Mayweather’s $450 million net worth is a result of his unparalleled success in boxing, where he has amassed earnings through high-profile fights and shrewd business deals. His ability to market himself and capitalize on his persona has played a significant role in building his financial empire. His investments in real estate and various business ventures further underscore his financial acumen.

The aptly nicknamed ‘Money’ Mayweather acquired his original private jet, a $50 million Gulfstream G650, all the way back in 2014. While he often used it to travel to exotic countries across the globe like Monte Carlo, Hong Kong, Bali, Fiji, and Tokyo, the new addition to his asset class might be his new preference.

Regardless, the richest boxer in the world wrote, “Fresh out the paint shop, time to take a little trip overseas and pick up a bag!”

According to sources, the Air Mayweather 2 has twelve leather seats, golden cup holders and other lavish accents. If that wasn’t enough, Mayweather’s new purchase is a pretty black and white beauty with Mayweather written across the fuselage of the plane and ‘TMT’ on the tail.

Either you hate it or you motivated. 2 planes give them 2 more small reasons to hate”. While the new purchase is great for Mayweather, his pilots should be excited too!

Floyd Mayweather once tipped his pilot $1000

All the way back in May 2023, Floyd Mayweather said in a video that he tipped his pilots “$1000 apiece” after a turbulent flight onboard his lavish jet. “Today, I tipped my pilots $1,000 apiece because it was kind of rough”, Mayweather said. However, the story doesn’t end there. He said something only someone like Floyd Mayweather could say.

UPDATE:Roy Jones Jr. explains why Gervonta Davis is the most deadly kind of guy besides Mike Tyson

Mayweather shared some tipping advice for the people who often fly private, saying, “Everybody that has got their own jet, you’ve always got to tip your pilots no matter what”. For someone who could fly to a new country just for a picture, $200 or $2000 doesn’t really matter. So, he added that it doesn’t matter if the tip is $200 or $2000, they should tip their pilots.

Love him or hate him—you can’t deny Floyd Mayweather’s extravagant style—he lives big, and from the looks of his new jet, he flies big as well. Did you like his new jet? Let us know in the comments below!
