- 1:32Speaker 5: into it, Floyd. So I'm a fan of the sport
- 1:34Speaker 5: and I'm a fan of like box. I actually watched boxing.
- 1:37Speaker 5: So let's talk about this. You change the game when
- 1:40Speaker 5: you bet on yourself, right. I believe you brought yourself
- 1:43Speaker 5: out of your contract with Bob Aaron for twenty million dollars.
- 1:47Speaker 5: I think it was before after Dayla Hall of Fight.
- 1:49Speaker 7: Well, no, I brought myself on my contract at that
- 1:51Speaker 7: particular time for seven hundred and fifty thousand, and then
- 1:55Speaker 7: once I left them a little with the Mini Pacyall Fight,
- 2:01Speaker 7: the Canelo and the McGregor, I made seven hundred and
- 2:04Speaker 7: fifty million from.
- 2:05Speaker 2: Three clap it up for that.
- 2:08Speaker 3: So what what?
- 2:10Speaker 7: Yeah?
- 2:10Speaker 5: What made you want to buy yourself out of the contract?
- 2:14Speaker 5: What made you have the vision to become your own boss?
- 2:17Speaker 5: Because now, you know, it's easy to see it, but
- 2:19Speaker 5: at the time it wasn't.
- 2:20Speaker 2: You know.
- 2:21Speaker 5: I think Bob Aron didn't think it was gonna work.
- 2:23Speaker 5: He had some comments about that.
- 2:24Speaker 7: Right, I just had vision, you know, I didn't want
- 2:28Speaker 7: to I'm sorry. Well, I had vision, and I didn't
- 2:32Speaker 7: just want to be promoted in one area. I wanted
- 2:36Speaker 7: the money to be spread it out so I can
- 2:38Speaker 7: be promoted all around the world, you know. I wanted
- 2:40Speaker 7: to be worldwide. So I think they kind of had
- 2:43Speaker 7: me in a choke hold, and I didn't want to
- 2:45Speaker 7: be in a choke hold. So I took it upon
- 2:47Speaker 7: myself to buy myself on my contract and gamble on
- 2:51Speaker 7: myself and to become my own boss. And that's what
- 2:53Speaker 7: I did, and.
- 2:54Speaker 8: The biggest one Love it, Floyd.
- 2:57Speaker 6: Now, your dad shows you around the ropes in the ring.
- 3:02Speaker 8: Obviously your late uncle showed you the ropes in in
- 3:05Speaker 8: boxing as well, but I'm.
- 3:07Speaker 6: Interested in who shows you the ropes in business?
- 3:09Speaker 7: Right.
- 3:10Speaker 8: We hear about Al Hyman. He's one of those guys
- 3:12Speaker 8: we've never seen. How did that the relationship develop?
- 3:14Speaker 6: How'd you for certain, well.
- 3:16Speaker 7: Actually, how I met Al Hayman. You know, a lot,
- 3:18Speaker 7: a lot of people in his room. You know, you
- 3:20Speaker 7: guys need to do your homework, you know, so everyone
- 3:23Speaker 7: should know. Al Hayman. This guy is a shrewd businessman,
- 3:27Speaker 7: unbelievable just mentor. He's a he's like a second father.
- 3:31Speaker 7: So for years I kept hearing his name, kept hearing
- 3:36Speaker 7: his name. He wanted to get involved in boxing, and
- 3:38Speaker 7: he's just like myself. He's a chess player. So his
- 3:41Speaker 7: ultimate goal was to get the biggest the fighter that
- 3:44Speaker 7: he seen that he knew was going to be the biggest,
- 3:47Speaker 7: and then he knew that all the rest of the
- 3:48Speaker 7: fighters would follow. And then once that happened, you know,
- 3:53Speaker 7: of course we were We started off as he was
- 3:56Speaker 7: my man, he was manager. He he was my manager.
- 3:58Speaker 7: Then eventually we became business part and now we have
- 4:01Speaker 7: somewhere upwards of four hundred fighters.
- 4:03Speaker 2: Wow, that's incredible.
- 4:08Speaker 4: I was first introduced to your work ethic in my hometown.
- 4:12Speaker 4: There was a fighter named Angel Man Freddy that you
- 4:14Speaker 4: kind of dog walked, right, So shout out Angel, shout
- 4:17Speaker 4: out to everybody's the Chicago and Gary and let's make
- 4:20Speaker 4: some noise. But I've always wanted to ask you this
- 4:23Speaker 4: question because I talked to everyone here about mastering their
- 4:26Speaker 4: craft and being consistent and your prime give me the
- 4:30Speaker 4: honest answer, but the how many hours a day were
- 4:33Speaker 4: you working on your craft to be the best in
- 4:35Speaker 4: the world.
- 4:36Speaker 7: I don't I can't really say. You know, the hate,
- 4:41Speaker 7: the jealousy was a part of the motivation. Yeah, I
- 4:44Speaker 7: mean I needed it, you know, I needed the doubters
- 4:49Speaker 7: that made me push and work extremely hard each and
- 4:52Speaker 7: every day. Floyd can't do this, he can't do that.
- 4:54Speaker 7: But my ultimate goal was just to pull my mother
- 4:59Speaker 7: out of poverty, you know, help, you know, help my
- 5:02Speaker 7: grandmother put her in the bed for that.
- 5:04Speaker 2: That's what it's about.
- 5:08Speaker 7: You know, a lot of you know, I think the
- 5:09Speaker 7: people always see just you know, the flashiness, but it
- 5:14Speaker 7: took a lot of hard work, a lot of hard work.
- 5:17Speaker 2: From dedication, so you know, meditation.
- 5:23Speaker 7: You know. I had my first fight in nineteen eighty seven. Wow,
- 5:26Speaker 7: you know, nineteen eighty seven. Every day, you know, I
- 5:29Speaker 7: really have to take my head off to my father,
- 5:31Speaker 7: great businessman. I mean just I love him to death,
- 5:35Speaker 7: you know, because if it wasn't for my father, I
- 5:38Speaker 7: wouldn't be where I'm at. My dad told me, you know,
- 5:41Speaker 7: the first thing he taught me, the less you get hit,
- 5:43Speaker 7: the longer you're going.
- 5:44Speaker 4: You're going to be able to last defense first and
- 5:46Speaker 4: invest in two.
- 5:48Speaker 2: Yeah, listen.
- 5:48Speaker 7: Actually, and every day my dad would go out and hustle.
- 5:54Speaker 7: Of course, my dad because his career didn't didn't turn
- 5:56Speaker 7: on like he wanted his career to turn out. So
- 5:59Speaker 7: my dad will hustle every day. But one thing that
- 6:01Speaker 7: my dad, he took time out every day to take
- 6:04Speaker 7: me to the boxing gym. Wow. And from nineteen eighty
- 6:09Speaker 7: seven all the way to nineteen ninety three, my dad
- 6:13Speaker 7: was working with me. Then eventually he caught a case,
- 6:18Speaker 7: you know, a federal case. He went to prison, and
- 6:21Speaker 7: I kept working, kept working hard, went to the Olympics.
- 6:24Speaker 7: After the Olympics, I moved to Vegas, started working with
- 6:28Speaker 7: my uncle Roger. Yeah, and nothing happens overnight. We took
- 6:32Speaker 7: our time, we worked, we worked, we pushed, and we worked,
- 6:36Speaker 7: and we broke records.
- 6:38Speaker 5: Listen, they saw y'all you running two years ago. I'm
- 6:41Speaker 5: gonna telling me the story. So this is extremely important.
- 6:43Speaker 5: I want to talk about discipline and work ethic because
- 6:46Speaker 5: that's true in anything you do right, no matter what,
- 6:48Speaker 5: you have to be disciplined.
- 6:49Speaker 3: And work.
- 6:49Speaker 5: At the end, I don't feel anybody is born discipline.
- 6:52Speaker 5: You learned discipline. And the crazy thing is the first
- 6:54Speaker 5: time I ever saw you was like three years ago.
- 6:57Speaker 5: I was in Miami and I was it was probably
- 7:01Speaker 5: like twelve o'clock at night, and we was coming from
- 7:02Speaker 5: a restaurant and I was driving back to Fountain Blue
- 7:06Speaker 5: to get changed to go out to the club. Literally,
- 7:08Speaker 5: this is just a random Friday, twelve o'clock at night
- 7:12Speaker 5: and I'm driving and I see somebody running opposite of traffic.
- 7:17Speaker 2: How many years ago was this? Please?
- 7:18Speaker 3: It was like three years ago, I'm saying.
- 7:19Speaker 5: So I see him, see somebody running opposite of traffic,
- 7:22Speaker 5: and as I get closer, I'm like, it's Champ. It
- 7:25Speaker 5: was by himself, And it was so crazy because you
- 7:28Speaker 5: weren't training for a fight. You were actually already I
- 7:31Speaker 5: think he was already retired. But it's like you're running
- 7:36Speaker 5: up hundreds of millions of dollars fifty and oh, not
- 7:39Speaker 5: training for a fight, and you're still running at twelve
- 7:41Speaker 5: o'clock at night randomly in Miami. So it's like, talk
- 7:45Speaker 5: about that level of discipline and commitment because they see,
- 7:47Speaker 5: they see the jury, they see the chain, they see
- 7:49Speaker 5: the lifestyle, but I don't think that they understand the
- 7:52Speaker 5: commitment that you put in for your whole entire life
- 7:56Speaker 5: my philosophy.
- 7:57Speaker 7: I just look at it like this when you just
- 7:59Speaker 7: look out here in the world today. Yeah, Mexicans support Mexicans,
- 8:05Speaker 7: Puerto Ricans support Puerto Ricans, Dominicans support Dominicans, Chinese support Chinese,
- 8:13Speaker 7: Japanese support Japanese. But when it comes to blacks, we
- 8:18Speaker 7: tear each other down.
- 8:21Speaker 6: Earners, what's up?
- 8:22Speaker 8: You ever walk into a small business and everything just

- 10:23Speaker 7: So when you look at you look at Bill Gates,
- 10:26Speaker 7: you look at Warren Buffett. You look at these guys,
- 10:29Speaker 7: and you see these guys they can be in the seventies, eighties,
- 10:32Speaker 7: and you look. You can look at the Waltons families
- 10:35Speaker 7: that own you know, Walmart and Walgreens. They can continue
- 10:38Speaker 7: to make money when they're eighty ninety. But we never
- 10:41Speaker 7: had nothing to say. You know, when I go out
- 10:43Speaker 7: and do just exhibitions, or I come do speaking engagements
- 10:47Speaker 7: or I'm making appearance, then it's like, oh, Floyd Mayweather
- 10:50Speaker 7: is hurting for money. No, it's just that retirement for everyone,
- 10:56Speaker 7: for each and every one of us, is different. My
- 10:59Speaker 7: retirement is to do what I want to do as
- 11:03Speaker 7: long as I'm happy.
- 11:05Speaker 2: I put up for that.
- 11:08Speaker 7: And you know, I don't always talk about different things
- 11:15Speaker 7: that I'm doing. You know what I'm working on right
- 11:16Speaker 7: now in New York City. I know you guys. If
- 11:19Speaker 7: you guys haven't seen one of my buildings is one Summit,

- 11:32Speaker 2: What's the address of that building?
- 11:34Speaker 7: I don't know what I'm about it. So what I'm
- 11:38Speaker 7: working on, I want you guys to know this. I
- 11:41Speaker 7: got a casino coming to New York City in times.
- 11:45Speaker 6: Part of that.
- 11:45Speaker 2: Yeah, it up for that. That's incredible.

- 11:56Speaker 7: that I've been working with for so many years. And
- 12:00Speaker 7: Andrew Mathias, you know, great business guy. This is what
- 12:04Speaker 7: he told me. One day we took a walk were
- 12:05Speaker 7: was in New York. We was taking a walk. He said,

- 12:09Speaker 7: we said, we own that. You see this building, we
- 12:11Speaker 7: owned it. So we was walking and walking. Then he said,
- 12:13Speaker 7: you know, a boxing makes money when he boxing. A
- 12:17Speaker 7: football player makes money when he playing football. Basketball player
- 12:21Speaker 7: makes money when he playing basketball. He said, but New
- 12:24Speaker 7: York real estate, you make money when you sleep.
- 12:27Speaker 6: So yes, So bar, that's a big one.
- 12:30Speaker 7: So I said, So, I said, okay, So we started
- 12:33Speaker 7: we started off something small with him in the beginning.
- 12:37Speaker 7: You know, I started off probably five million. That was
- 12:40Speaker 7: just in the beginning. It was years ago, something small
- 12:44Speaker 7: at the time.
- 12:45Speaker 2: What was the percentage of.
- 12:46Speaker 7: That work that was like ruffle actually at that particular time,
- 12:49Speaker 7: even though that was so many years ago, I mean
- 12:52Speaker 7: years and years. So just off that five million I
- 12:54Speaker 7: was getting on the eighteenth. Every month I would get
- 12:57Speaker 7: a nice, a great, a good check.
- 13:00Speaker 6: Like retired what like somebody's yearly salary, good tackle.
- 13:05Speaker 7: I mean it was, it was good. It was good
- 13:07Speaker 7: money for Okay, put it like this. Everything isn't for everybody.
- 13:13Speaker 7: So I'm gonna I'm gonna help these people and I'm
- 13:16Speaker 7: gonna give them jews. I'm gonna drop jews. I'm gonna
- 13:18Speaker 7: teach them about generational wealth. I'm gonna talk about my life,
- 13:21Speaker 7: my ups and my downs. But everything ain't for everybody.
- 13:25Speaker 7: You know. Some people say may Weather worth one hundred million,
- 13:30Speaker 7: some say two hundred, some say it being nobody would
- 13:33Speaker 7: never really know because I'm doing business worldwide.
- 13:36Speaker 6: Yes, so yeah, I got so.
- 13:42Speaker 8: As you were talking, I slowly talked my roleuxe under
- 13:45Speaker 8: my sleeve. You know, Scott, Scott, Scott, that little Scott.
- 13:50Speaker 8: I mean it ain't it ain't the chandelier that you're wearing.
- 13:53Speaker 8: But I'm always still about the little president out.
- 14:03Speaker 7: It's not little.
- 14:05Speaker 6: That's a that's a forty people, that's forty.
- 14:08Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 14:08Speaker 3: Money, money, money knows.
- 14:10Speaker 8: Yeah, we're not little over here. It's the biggest with
- 14:14Speaker 8: the best. But I brought money now, I mean, that's
- 14:17Speaker 8: what eighteen million, eighteen eighteen million?
- 14:20Speaker 2: How much value has that went up since you got it?
- 14:24Speaker 7: I don't really know.
- 14:27Speaker 8: I brought that up for a reason, right, because a
- 14:28Speaker 8: lot of times people will see the lavish spending, right,
- 14:32Speaker 8: they don't see the business side of you. And so
- 14:34Speaker 8: I wonder is there a balance that you have or
- 14:37Speaker 8: something like a check off where you're like, all right,
- 14:40Speaker 8: if I've accumulated this, I'll now treat myself. Is there
- 14:42Speaker 8: a balance when it comes to investing versus your spending?
- 14:47Speaker 7: We should all treat ourselves absolutely. But this is my
- 14:55Speaker 7: advice to everyone in this room, my advice, please take it.
- 14:59Speaker 7: If you make one hundred thousand, put fifty thousand up,
- 15:02Speaker 7: yes you may. If you make two million, put a
- 15:04Speaker 7: million up, because I believe in putting up money for
- 15:08Speaker 7: a rainy day, because you don't ever know what can happen.
- 15:10Speaker 7: A lot of us didn't expect for the pandemic to happen.
- 15:14Speaker 7: You know, shit happens. You know. It's just that I'm
- 15:18Speaker 7: happy that I made smart investments and I was good
- 15:22Speaker 7: through the whole pandemic. And I make sure my whole
- 15:25Speaker 7: staff and my team was good. But everyone is not me.
- 15:28Speaker 7: But I'm gonna push. I'm here to push everybody, to
- 15:31Speaker 7: tell everybody every day we wake up, we got a chance,
- 15:34Speaker 7: and we got a choice. All any of us can
- 15:36Speaker 7: be great, you know, just because what I feel is great.
- 15:39Speaker 7: You may not feel is great.
- 15:41Speaker 2: What's great to you on a daily what.
- 15:43Speaker 7: Is great to me? Just being able to you know,
- 15:47Speaker 7: we take things for granted, yes, you know, being able
- 15:50Speaker 7: to see, you know, having ten fingers, having ten toes,
- 15:53Speaker 7: being able to walk, you know, being able to taste,
- 15:56Speaker 7: being able to smell. Because if we look at it,
- 15:59Speaker 7: because I was speaking to a guy the other day
- 16:03Speaker 7: and he was telling me about committing suicide, I'm like, yo,
- 16:06Speaker 7: you tripping. Yeah, you know, imagine all the people that
- 16:10Speaker 7: that's not in your that's not in your predicament. They
- 16:14Speaker 7: got a choice and got a chance where someone got
- 16:16Speaker 7: to help them walk. You know, they gotta have a
- 16:18Speaker 7: tube to talk. So we take a lot of things
- 16:20Speaker 7: for granted, you know, just in life, just in general.
- 16:23Speaker 7: And I don't take nothing for granted. And you say,
- 16:26Speaker 7: what's great just being able to spend time with my children,
- 16:31Speaker 7: pushing them to be great, telling them whatever you want
- 16:33Speaker 7: to accomplish in life, go for it. I'm not telling
- 16:36Speaker 7: you to be like me, be better than me.
- 16:38Speaker 3: So let me ask you this.
- 16:39Speaker 5: As far as on the business side, transition, the game
- 16:41Speaker 5: of boxing, sport of Boxing and.
- 16:45Speaker 3: Twenty four to seven, Yes, that's your idea.
- 16:48Speaker 7: That showed that I created.
- 16:49Speaker 5: Yes, and then now you see UFC doing it everybody.
- 16:53Speaker 5: So what was in your brain?
- 16:55Speaker 7: It's a lot of things. It's a lot of things
- 16:56Speaker 7: that I created. You know, nobody would be putting the
- 16:58Speaker 7: money to the air if it wasn't for me. It's
- 16:59Speaker 7: a lot of things.
- 17:01Speaker 6: What you created an ip, you created the money phone.
- 17:04Speaker 5: But yeah, so twenty four sevenisode, what gave you that
- 17:07Speaker 5: idea to chronicle your training camp and all of that?
- 17:11Speaker 7: Just being outside the box. You do not want to
- 17:14Speaker 7: not want to be like everyone else. Like sometimes you
- 17:17Speaker 7: may see I may post a photo of it's going
- 17:22Speaker 7: like it's okay to be different just because I may
- 17:24Speaker 7: not dress like everyone else. They're like, oh, we don't
- 17:27Speaker 7: like this, Well you're not. If you're not worldwide, you're
- 17:30Speaker 7: just domestic.
- 17:32Speaker 2: Say we want to be worldwide, if you're doing.
- 17:34Speaker 7: You know, I'm I'm you gotta realize, I'm cutting deals
- 17:37Speaker 7: worldwide each and every day. I'm all around the world
- 17:41Speaker 7: cutting deals. You know. I just was just in ab
- 17:45Speaker 7: Adabi Dubai, Rome, Israel, and I'm jet saitting jet saiding.
- 17:53Speaker 7: And it's not really bragging if you're really doing it.
- 17:56Speaker 7: So I'm really doing it. So I'm not bragging. So
- 17:58Speaker 7: most of time you see, you know, on social media,
- 18:01Speaker 7: is to post. It's your so it's your platform to
- 18:04Speaker 7: post what you want to post. It's my platform. So
- 18:06Speaker 7: the only thing I'm doing is posted what what I
- 18:09Speaker 7: only have. So when you see your garage with a
- 18:11Speaker 7: ton of black cars, that's just one of my houses.
- 18:13Speaker 7: Those are my cars. But guess what, the same people
- 18:16Speaker 7: in this room can have the same stuff.
- 18:19Speaker 5: So like when you saw because he used to be
- 18:20Speaker 5: pretty boy, Floyd, you was extremely successful, but you change
- 18:25Speaker 5: to money Mayweather and that changed the game. So when
- 18:29Speaker 5: you transitioned that, when you're looking at it, like, I know,
- 18:33Speaker 5: people's going to hate, but this is good marketing and
- 18:36Speaker 5: this is what I need to take my career to
- 18:38Speaker 5: the next level.
- 18:38Speaker 3: No more pretty boy. Now is money.
- 18:40Speaker 7: So I want to get this right. I just want
- 18:43Speaker 7: to get this right. So I'm a kid that comes
- 18:45Speaker 7: from poverty, comes from nothing, seven of us in a
- 18:49Speaker 7: one bedroom mother on drugs. Dad career didn't go good.
- 18:53Speaker 7: Dad was ended up in prison. And I beat all
- 18:56Speaker 7: odds and worked extremely hard to get get it the
- 18:59Speaker 7: legal way. And I'm proud to boast and brag about
- 19:02Speaker 7: getting the legal way.
- 19:04Speaker 2: Slap it up for that.
- 19:05Speaker 6: Let's not discount that.
- 19:06Speaker 7: So now my own people is like, fuck him, we
- 19:13Speaker 7: don't like him because he's successful. To clean cut is
- 19:18Speaker 7: if you if you're winning. If I thought everybody in
- 19:23Speaker 7: this room wanted to be a winner in life.
- 19:25Speaker 2: Y'all want to be winners.
- 19:27Speaker 7: Say I'm a winner, So if we want to be winners,
- 19:30Speaker 7: we only can follow winners. I mean, I don't I'm
- 19:36Speaker 7: I'm not the one to knock anyone. You know, whatever
- 19:41Speaker 7: you want to do and like, go for it. You know,
- 19:45Speaker 7: I just can't be stopped at whatever I put my
- 19:47Speaker 7: mind to do. I can do. You know. You know,
- 19:50Speaker 7: when I was walking to New York as a kid,
- 19:52Speaker 7: did ever when I was young, did every think that
- 19:56Speaker 7: I was going to own a skyscrape bag? I didn't
- 19:58Speaker 7: think about it. But now I do ow nine.
- 20:01Speaker 2: That's incredible.
- 20:02Speaker 4: Can you talk to us about maybe one of the
- 20:04Speaker 4: biggest lessons you've learned from Leonard lb one you may
- 20:09Speaker 4: have taken away from Vince McMahon and then someone else
- 20:11Speaker 4: who's a mentor to you that's had an impact on
- 20:13Speaker 4: your career.
- 20:14Speaker 7: Well, they say, well, they say you are you are
- 20:18Speaker 7: the five people that you surround yourself with, That's who
- 20:21Speaker 7: you are. Yes, So of course I'm you know, Roy
- 20:26Speaker 7: Disney is one of my friends who owns what Disney will,
- 20:30Speaker 7: Robert Smith, the richest Black men in America, Yes, and
- 20:35Speaker 7: the list, Mark Holliday from sl Green, Al Hayman, all
- 20:40Speaker 7: these guys are. It's not just it's not just the money. Yeah,
- 20:44Speaker 7: you know, I many I've dealt with millions, millions and
- 20:48Speaker 7: billions of dollars. It's about building relationships.
- 20:52Speaker 2: Yeah, say they talk about that, and he always mentions that.
- 20:54Speaker 7: It's all about it's not really the money because you
- 20:57Speaker 7: can make a lot of money, but if you don't
- 20:58Speaker 7: have a game plan, you're rich. You're not wealthy because
- 21:02Speaker 7: rich is when you got it for a short period
- 21:04Speaker 7: of time.
- 21:05Speaker 6: Wealth is long term. So one of the things that
- 21:10Speaker 6: we've known.
- 21:11Speaker 1: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child
- 21:15Speaker 1: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador
- 21:19Speaker 1: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with
- 21:23Speaker 1: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan.
- 21:26Speaker 7: These are just.
- 21:27Speaker 1: Some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President
- 21:31Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy Noman, the United States
- 21:34Speaker 1: Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border
- 21:39Speaker 1: crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over
- 21:43Speaker 1: one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you
- 21:46Speaker 1: are here illegally, your next you will be fine nearly
- 21:50Speaker 1: one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned and deported, you will
- 21:54Speaker 1: never return. But if you register using our CBP home
- 21:58Speaker 1: app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally.
- 22:01Speaker 1: Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump America's laws,
- 22:06Speaker 1: border and families.
- 22:08Speaker 2: Will be protected sponsored by the United States Department of
- 22:10Speaker 2: Homeland Security.
- 22:11Speaker 8: But it's obviously you said you were in Dubai and
- 22:13Speaker 8: Abu Dhabi when we saw you there is that you're
- 22:16Speaker 8: you're doing business deals like I see the exhibition fights.
- 22:18Speaker 8: But I'm like, he's just doing that. But there's something
- 22:21Speaker 8: bigger going on obviously. I think it's the deals. And
- 22:23Speaker 8: so when you're looking at what are you looking for
- 22:25Speaker 8: when deals come across to you, right, Because I'm sure
- 22:27Speaker 8: there's properly a team that says, all right, Floyd, we
- 22:30Speaker 8: have this. What are you looking forward to say? All right, yes,
- 22:33Speaker 8: we're going with this because I mean not skytscreepers. That's
- 22:36Speaker 8: that's pretty impressive.
- 22:37Speaker 7: Man. Well, well, I don't want to be the only
- 22:39Speaker 7: smart person with my team, so I got to choose.
- 22:41Speaker 7: It's chess. It's real life, real life chess out here
- 22:46Speaker 7: in the world. So I want to make sure that
- 22:49Speaker 7: you know, I got smart individuals that's around me that's
- 22:54Speaker 7: gonna tell me, don't do that's not smart. You know,
- 22:57Speaker 7: I've been working on buying NBA team outright. You know,
- 23:02Speaker 7: there's a difference between.
- 23:04Speaker 2: Clapping up for that.
- 23:05Speaker 6: We look.
- 23:08Speaker 7: You know me and actually one of my other other
- 23:11Speaker 7: business partners, Brent Johnson, he's here, So we've been working
- 23:15Speaker 7: on the NBA team for a while now. You know,
- 23:17Speaker 7: it's kind of it's rough Vegas. It could be the
- 23:22Speaker 7: Vegas franchise, it could be the Seattle franchise, or I
- 23:26Speaker 7: could be buying a franchise that's already up and running.
- 23:30Speaker 7: So the first offer we offered them a little bit
- 23:34Speaker 7: over two billion for majority ownership. Do we got Do
- 23:38Speaker 7: I have it? Absolutely? I have it?
- 23:40Speaker 6: But clapping up for that, I kidding me.
- 23:48Speaker 7: But it didn't happen. It didn't happen overnight. It didn't
- 23:51Speaker 7: happen overnight. It's it's it's a lot. It's a lot
- 23:57Speaker 7: when you have so many different businesses all around, all
- 24:02Speaker 7: around the world. Actually, it's a lot. It's not easy.
- 24:05Speaker 8: I just follow it out really quick because I wonder
- 24:07Speaker 8: when you walk into a business deal, right, are they
- 24:10Speaker 8: respecting you as Floyd made, whether the businessman, or are
- 24:12Speaker 8: they looking at you as Floyd made, whether the Hall
- 24:15Speaker 8: of Fame boxer at the greatest all the time.
- 24:18Speaker 6: Exactly right TV? What is that like for you?
- 24:22Speaker 7: Well, I had to be I had to be somewhat
- 24:25Speaker 7: intelligent and smart to be able to make one hundred
- 24:30Speaker 7: million and three hundred million. And actually, at my age now,
- 24:33Speaker 7: I'm still going out there picking up twenty and thirty
- 24:36Speaker 7: million for fifteen minutes. In twenty minutes, I'm.
- 24:40Speaker 2: The greatest trade average. So clap it up. So it's
- 24:43Speaker 2: obvious numbers.
- 24:45Speaker 7: It's obvious that I'm the smart one if I'm able
- 24:49Speaker 7: to make the people pay and I'm beating YouTubers.
- 24:55Speaker 2: Good point.
- 24:56Speaker 5: So let me let me ask you this. This is
- 24:58Speaker 5: one thing that I always amid about you. I don't
- 24:59Speaker 5: think you God credit for it because you had We
- 25:01Speaker 5: always see Lebron always getting credit for working with his
- 25:03Speaker 5: team all black young men. But when I look at
- 25:06Speaker 5: you and you see Al Hayman and Leonard Lerbie and
- 25:09Speaker 5: your circle is all black as far as on that
- 25:12Speaker 5: business side, on the boxing, like the forefront people, So
- 25:17Speaker 5: you were early on that and was that important to
- 25:19Speaker 5: you or you just that just kind of happened that way.
- 25:22Speaker 7: Well, of course, I'm gonna always I'm gonna always love
- 25:25Speaker 7: my people first always. But in business, you know, I
- 25:37Speaker 7: gotta think about my family first. I gotta think about
- 25:40Speaker 7: my grandson, my daughter, my two daughters, my two sons.
- 25:44Speaker 7: I gotta think about them first. So when it comes
- 25:48Speaker 7: to business, it's not no, it's not no certain color.
- 25:52Speaker 7: I work with everybody. It's just like that. But far
- 25:56Speaker 7: as my team, it just ended up. You know, I
- 26:00Speaker 7: have a real diverse team. You know, we got people
- 26:04Speaker 7: from all walks of life. That's on my team that
- 26:06Speaker 7: I that I'm with every day and I and I
- 26:09Speaker 7: love my team, but when it comes to business, I
- 26:11Speaker 7: do business with everyone, honestly speaking.
- 26:14Speaker 4: Quick Gohad, a quick question for you. Talked about using
- 26:18Speaker 4: the haters fuel and it's something that I struggle with,
- 26:21Speaker 4: but I also use it as fuel. At what point
- 26:24Speaker 4: does using negative energy become detrimental to your life or
- 26:30Speaker 4: do you think it's because we grow with childhood traumas
- 26:32Speaker 4: that makes us activate a higher gear when we hear
- 26:35Speaker 4: something negative towards us.
- 26:40Speaker 7: Well, they say, if you want to going back and forth,
- 26:44Speaker 7: and I and I really want to apologize because a
- 26:47Speaker 7: lot of time I go back and you know, I
- 26:49Speaker 7: never I was always on the internet. I was always
- 26:52Speaker 7: the reaction. I wasn't the action because I never, like
- 26:55Speaker 7: I said before, I love my people first. I'm never
- 26:58Speaker 7: gonna you know, but sometimes you can shoot at me.
- 27:01Speaker 7: You can shoot at me and I really won't say nothing.
- 27:03Speaker 7: But you know, I got to shoot back. You know,
- 27:04Speaker 7: I got to teach my children and my family how
- 27:07Speaker 7: to defend themselves, you know, not just in the ring.
- 27:11Speaker 7: So a lot of times when people are people don't
- 27:15Speaker 7: really like when you are, when you continue to be successful.
- 27:19Speaker 7: You know, it's even like a woman. A woman can
- 27:22Speaker 7: be in your life and she's no longer in your life,
- 27:24Speaker 7: and she can think that, you know, the grass is green.
- 27:27Speaker 7: On the other side, she thinks that you're not going
- 27:29Speaker 7: to continue to be successful.
- 27:31Speaker 2: Shout out to my answers.
- 27:34Speaker 4: If I could have been here with me and Floyd's
- 27:36Speaker 4: driving shot but shot out Bay why.
- 27:41Speaker 7: And it's and it's nothing that works both ways. So
- 27:43Speaker 7: I don't want to be in this room. I don't
- 27:45Speaker 7: want to be biased. It works both ways. You know
- 27:48Speaker 7: a lot of times a man like me, I've never
- 27:50Speaker 7: been with a woman. And when we went our separate ways,
- 27:52Speaker 7: I was like, Oh, I don't want to see her
- 27:54Speaker 7: be successful. More power to you. That's not gonna That's
- 27:57Speaker 7: not going to change everything that I got. That's the
- 28:00Speaker 7: going to change my drive and my desire h to
- 28:02Speaker 7: be great at whatever I'm you know, to be great
- 28:05Speaker 7: at whatever investments I'm trying to do, or whatever I'm
- 28:07Speaker 7: trying to go for in life.
- 28:10Speaker 5: How do you deal with, you know, managing people, because
- 28:14Speaker 5: you obviously you know, have many weather promotions and you
- 28:18Speaker 5: know you set the precedent for boxes, you know, becoming
- 28:22Speaker 5: their own boss. And you have one of the greatest
- 28:25Speaker 5: young talents on your stable, Javontae Davis. But I've seen,
- 28:30Speaker 5: I've seen recently that he's actually looking to leave. So
- 28:34Speaker 5: how does that relationship work? How like, how does that work?
- 28:37Speaker 5: As far as you know, grooming somebody, getting him to
- 28:39Speaker 5: a point and then having some differences.
- 28:44Speaker 7: I've always been a gentleman. I've always been respectful, and
- 28:48Speaker 7: there's nothing like taking a kid that come from the
- 28:51Speaker 7: same background as you and helping them and put them
- 28:55Speaker 7: in a position to become a multi man. There. You know,
- 28:59Speaker 7: you meet a kid, he just he come up to
- 29:01Speaker 7: you for autograph, He signed an autograph for him. Then
- 29:04Speaker 7: I tell him, in a few years, when you get older,
- 29:06Speaker 7: I'm gonna work with you and I'm gonna make your
- 29:07Speaker 7: world champion someday. Years later, I started working with him,
- 29:14Speaker 7: helped him, push him to be great and if he
- 29:17Speaker 7: feels like, you know, his wings, he's grew wings where
- 29:21Speaker 7: he can fly become his own boss. More power to him.
- 29:25Speaker 8: Yeah, from your standpoint, because that's not going to.
- 29:31Speaker 7: I didn't get into the sport of boxing, you know,
- 29:34Speaker 7: you know, after I retired to not want to see
- 29:38Speaker 7: fighters grown. I wonder if I can, if he feels
- 29:41Speaker 7: like he can surpass Floyd Mayweather or be the next
- 29:46Speaker 7: Floyd Mayweather. I'm here to push you go for it. Yeah.
- 29:51Speaker 8: From that, but I'm looking at from that standpoint, it's like,
- 29:56Speaker 8: that's the sport of boxing, right, Like some guys may
- 29:59Speaker 8: say that they have some of the skills that you
- 30:01Speaker 8: have and probably won't be as great as you. But
- 30:04Speaker 8: from the business side of boxing, is there somebody that
- 30:08Speaker 8: you think can actually replicate the formula that.
- 30:11Speaker 6: You've put forth?
- 30:12Speaker 8: Because I feel like they used to call Dala Hoyet
- 30:15Speaker 8: the cash king, and then obviously you had you have
- 30:17Speaker 8: the number one, two, three, four.
- 30:19Speaker 6: Do you have the fifth highest view to fight? You
- 30:22Speaker 6: might you got four out of the top five I.
- 30:24Speaker 7: Know in the top ten fights in the history of boxing, right,
- 30:29Speaker 7: six of them is mine.
- 30:31Speaker 2: Wow, pop it up for that, please, pop it up please.
- 30:35Speaker 8: And so some people they used to criticize you for that,
- 30:38Speaker 8: right they would say like, oh, look at the style
- 30:39Speaker 8: of fight, but people are watching it and so well,
- 30:43Speaker 8: from a business standpoint, let's get let's.
- 30:45Speaker 7: Get this right. Late say late bloomers, A lot of
- 30:48Speaker 7: late bloomers, because I had like a seventy eight percent
- 30:52Speaker 7: knockout ratio when I was at a small weight class.
- 30:56Speaker 7: So a lot of times when you go up, you
- 31:00Speaker 7: know the impact with the weight. When when I went
- 31:02Speaker 7: from in Olympics in ninety six, because I turned professional
- 31:05Speaker 7: in ninety six, so you know, I'm still competing right now.
- 31:09Speaker 7: So I've been a professional for twenty six years and
- 31:12Speaker 7: I'm still able to articulate well, still sharp, still smart.
- 31:16Speaker 7: That's one of the great things about my career. They're
- 31:17Speaker 7: gonna say, what's the best thing about your career? What
- 31:19Speaker 7: the best thing about my career is I retired on
- 31:22Speaker 7: my own terms when I wanted to, and I'm my
- 31:24Speaker 7: own boss.
- 31:25Speaker 6: It up for that big boss.
- 31:29Speaker 7: Of course.
- 31:29Speaker 4: You're invested in real estate, you have TMT promotions, you
- 31:32Speaker 4: have business dealers with CGI. Are you currently investing in
- 31:36Speaker 4: the stock market and if there are any stocks that
- 31:37Speaker 4: you are in love with currently at the moment.
- 31:43Speaker 7: I've been lately. You know, I'm gonna be honest, it
- 31:45Speaker 7: was something small. I've been traded. I was trading the
- 31:49Speaker 7: last few months. Let's go, I've been making one hundred
- 31:53Speaker 7: thousand a month.
- 31:54Speaker 2: I mean, they're just okay, what are you trading.
- 31:58Speaker 7: But it's nothing. But it's nothing. It's not like I'm
- 32:00Speaker 7: trading nothing big. Just one of my guys. He's the
- 32:03Speaker 7: best at.
- 32:03Speaker 2: It got you.
- 32:04Speaker 7: But you know what actually, but we'll talk about that.
- 32:09Speaker 7: What's that hold on? I'm bill up.
- 32:11Speaker 6: Read the slam of first.
- 32:12Speaker 7: I need everybody notice within the next the next few months,
- 32:17Speaker 7: I'm building up. I got a platform that I got
- 32:20Speaker 7: for everyone. That's who wants to invest in the next
- 32:23Speaker 7: and then in the next twenty years, you'll get a
- 32:26Speaker 7: great return on your money. Because what we don't teach
- 32:29Speaker 7: blacks is about long time. You know, a lot of
- 32:34Speaker 7: time we think about just right now. You know. It's
- 32:37Speaker 7: it's just like and we can we can knock black
- 32:41Speaker 7: athletes that come from poverty and they want and they
- 32:44Speaker 7: see Floyd Mayweather with watches and all these cars, they're like, shit,
- 32:48Speaker 7: I want that too. But they must realize it didn't
- 32:52Speaker 7: happen overnight. I thought thousands of fights for free before
- 32:57Speaker 7: I even turn professional. You know, my first professional fight,
- 33:00Speaker 7: even though you know I got good money for I'm
- 33:05Speaker 7: saying for from the company that I signed to. You know,
- 33:09Speaker 7: it was a good signing bonus. But for my first fight,
- 33:14Speaker 7: I made twenty five thousand, you know, and now you
- 33:18Speaker 7: know twenty five thousand is valet money.
- 33:22Speaker 2: So clap that up.
- 33:25Speaker 6: Where are you parking up? You got a big team.
- 33:28Speaker 7: I got, I gotta I got on Floyd May But
- 33:30Speaker 7: I got to pop a little shit. I gotta try.
- 33:33Speaker 7: I gotta talk a little shit.
- 33:34Speaker 6: I was just gonna say it's fuel money, but callai money.
- 33:39Speaker 5: Oh the city of Las Vegas is pretty much You're
- 33:42Speaker 5: like the mayor there, like you're a residency at MGM.
- 33:45Speaker 5: All your fights I think was at MGM. You got
- 33:46Speaker 5: your boxing gym. Now you're talking about the NBA team,
- 33:49Speaker 5: Like what.
- 33:50Speaker 7: We don't want to put ourselves in a box. We
- 33:52Speaker 7: put ourselves in a box when it because it looks
- 33:54Speaker 7: like I can I can only go one place, let
- 33:57Speaker 7: the world.
- 33:58Speaker 6: For sure, I sell out Worldwideah for sure.
- 34:00Speaker 3: Sure, I'm just saying you.
- 34:01Speaker 9: Still still still to this day, but but you run Vegas.
- 34:08Speaker 9: But my whole point is my whole The earth is
- 34:10Speaker 9: my turf.

- 34:16Speaker 4: how to think about it.
- 34:17Speaker 7: I gotta say the earth is my turf. Because it's
- 34:19Speaker 7: so crazy that you know, you've been hearing this stuff
- 34:21Speaker 7: nowadays where it's bad for our people when they say, oh,

- 34:29Speaker 7: How do we have to check in? You know, whenever
- 34:31Speaker 7: be seeing these guys some when you got to check in,
- 34:33Speaker 7: I gotta check in. You don't even own. You don't
- 34:35Speaker 7: even own. You don't even own no property in the city.
- 34:38Speaker 7: And talking about people got to check in, you gotta own,
- 34:41Speaker 7: you gotta own something for somebody got.
- 34:42Speaker 3: To check in. And how it works?
- 34:45Speaker 6: I said, how can I address it? You don't want
- 34:47Speaker 6: no property?
- 34:47Speaker 7: Well, I say, I'm already checking in one place. When
- 34:49Speaker 7: I go to somewhere where I don't have a home,
- 34:52Speaker 7: I'm checking into the hotel rightfully.
- 34:54Speaker 4: So to talk to us, just amongst friends, if you
- 35:00Speaker 4: have to start over from scratch, and let's say we
- 35:02Speaker 4: needed to make one hundred million in a year, what
- 35:04Speaker 4: would be your blueprint to do so? And can you
- 35:07Speaker 4: tell us how you use the jewelry and the lifestyle
- 35:09Speaker 4: to market all the businesses?
- 35:11Speaker 2: But y'all want to learn how to make a hundred
- 35:12Speaker 2: to know?
- 35:14Speaker 7: Okay, how.
- 35:17Speaker 2: Y'all know? How excited I don't?
- 35:19Speaker 7: I don't really want to. I do want to tell them,
- 35:21Speaker 7: But then you know, I don't. I don't want it
- 35:23Speaker 7: to get saturated.
- 35:24Speaker 2: Gotcha.
- 35:26Speaker 7: I'm gonna tell y'all how I'm in thirty six In
- 35:31Speaker 7: thirty six months. Of course, with one of my new investments,
- 35:34Speaker 7: I would be making three hundred million a month.
- 35:39Speaker 2: But what investment is that?
- 35:41Speaker 7: Just in real estate? I agree, I got you and
- 35:43Speaker 7: I'm heavy in real estate. I'm real heavy in real estate.
- 35:48Speaker 7: Even though you know, I got my own liquid and
- 35:52Speaker 7: if that means cash for those I break it down
- 35:55Speaker 7: the layman's terms. Even though I got you know, I
- 35:59Speaker 7: got a lot of care opm opm.
- 36:03Speaker 6: You don't.
- 36:04Speaker 7: You don't always have to use your money. That's why
- 36:07Speaker 7: it's very important for y'all to mention. Y'all keep y'all credit,
- 36:10Speaker 7: y'all credit right, talk to us about very important and
- 36:14Speaker 7: so you know, the Blacks, the Hispanics can go out
- 36:18Speaker 7: there and get loan, get certain loans. I'm also working
- 36:23Speaker 7: on me and some of my business partners. I'm getting
- 36:26Speaker 7: a bank actually, so it's so many different things I'm
- 36:29Speaker 7: working on.
- 36:29Speaker 2: That's incredible. Clapping up for that.
- 36:31Speaker 7: So I'm able to so so certain individuals able to
- 36:36Speaker 7: come to me and get loans so they can start.
- 36:39Speaker 7: You know, if you if you don't want to start
- 36:40Speaker 7: big in real estate, start with it like I do, plex,
- 36:44Speaker 7: get your four plex, and then you slowly grow from there.
- 36:48Speaker 8: I wonder what your relationship is like with other athletes,
- 36:50Speaker 8: right because obviously we see you making these business moves
- 36:53Speaker 8: and ously we talked about the CGI deal two hundred
- 36:56Speaker 8: and fifty million out there during COVID, But I don't
- 36:58Speaker 8: see many as he's following your blueprint. And I'm almost
- 37:02Speaker 8: confused as to why why do you think more athletes,
- 37:06Speaker 8: more people but you know, come from entertainment, are not
- 37:08Speaker 8: following this blueprint that you've laid out very clearly, and
- 37:11Speaker 8: you're doing it in real time.
- 37:13Speaker 7: Well out here in the world today. It has a
- 37:16Speaker 7: lot to do with control, you know, even like I
- 37:20Speaker 7: don't want to say, but I believe in having my
- 37:23Speaker 7: own brand so no one can mute me out. I
- 37:26Speaker 7: believe in standing on my own two feet. I never
- 37:29Speaker 7: had to deal with a major a shoe brand, and
- 37:32Speaker 7: I still was able to make over a billion dollars.
- 37:34Speaker 7: So I don't I get tired of here that I
- 37:37Speaker 7: need them. I need them, I need them. You don't
- 37:39Speaker 7: need nobody but yourself, Like I said, we all got choice.
- 37:42Speaker 7: We wake up with a choice and a chance every day.
- 37:44Speaker 7: I don't need nobody but myself, and of course I
- 37:46Speaker 7: need of course I need you guys to continue to
- 37:49Speaker 7: support me. But we we have to stop always thinking
- 37:56Speaker 7: that we need to we need certain brands to solidify us.
- 38:04Speaker 7: You know, I can have my own I have my
- 38:06Speaker 7: own brand. And I didn't beat guys that that was
- 38:10Speaker 7: would a major brand, you know, even like Pack y'all.
- 38:12Speaker 7: Pack y'all was with he was signed to Nike. Yep, right,
- 38:15Speaker 7: he had a Nike dial. Yeah, but that that's not
- 38:16Speaker 7: gonna change the outcome.
- 38:19Speaker 3: Off that talk. It's not going to change the alcohol.
- 38:23Speaker 8: Two hundred and seventy million later, three three hundred million later.
- 38:27Speaker 7: You can't. You don't show me thirty.
- 38:29Speaker 8: It's because the paper view keeps coming in, Floyd, Yeah,
- 38:32Speaker 8: but I gotta update it.
- 38:33Speaker 6: Man keeps coming in.
- 38:34Speaker 7: Yeah. But I was able to do something that you know,
- 38:37Speaker 7: at a lot of athletes wasn't able to do, you know,
- 38:40Speaker 7: just they believe that they needed someone else instead of
- 38:45Speaker 7: just roll the dice, bet on yourself. I'd rather take
- 38:49Speaker 7: a chance and bet on myself than betting on anyone else.
- 38:53Speaker 3: So last last question or no last question.
- 38:55Speaker 7: The reason why you got to bet on yourself because
- 38:57Speaker 7: every day all of us wake up, we look in
- 38:59Speaker 7: the mirror. You know, we say to ourselves, people will
- 39:02Speaker 7: always let you down, but you would never let yourself down.
- 39:06Speaker 2: That's a fact question for you when assembling the team.
- 39:11Speaker 4: What are some key things that you look for in
- 39:14Speaker 4: people that you're going to bring it to your team?
- 39:16Speaker 4: And some people call me the master investor. So I
- 39:18Speaker 4: gotta ask you a question. If I if I made
- 39:21Speaker 4: you all money, can I get a hell yeah, if.
- 39:24Speaker 2: I write a check for all losses.
- 39:26Speaker 7: It's the one thing that we have we have to
- 39:27Speaker 7: look look for. That's that's that trump that's bigger than love.
- 39:32Speaker 7: Trust because remember this, I would I would rather be
- 39:36Speaker 7: with a woman that I trust, open women than I love.
- 39:39Speaker 7: That's big facts. And they say, well why is that Floyd.
- 39:42Speaker 4: No fella's clap it up. I know some of y'all
- 39:46Speaker 4: days like you better not listening you.
- 39:49Speaker 7: This is the reason why we have people that we love.
- 39:52Speaker 7: We have people that's in our lives that we love
- 39:54Speaker 7: that we don't trust. You can have an uncle or
- 39:58Speaker 7: or that's on and you can be gone. You can
- 40:03Speaker 7: run to the store and they can come up your house.
- 40:05Speaker 7: You call home, like, who's there, Uncle Bobby here, Uh,
- 40:11Speaker 7: my aunt An here. They're going on my way back.
- 40:13Speaker 6: You know why you.
- 40:16Speaker 7: Love them but you don't trust them. Yeah, So remember this.
- 40:20Speaker 7: It's people that we love that we don't uh, that
- 40:23Speaker 7: we don't trust. That's why I say trust it trumps
- 40:26Speaker 7: it all.
- 40:27Speaker 3: Make some noise from Floyd Money MADEWI lady gentlemen,
