Fighter flashes some serious green

There’s a reason why Floyd

Mayweather Jr. is nicknamed “Money,” and it’s not for a lack of spending. The retired boxer has shelled out $10 million for a newly constructe­d compound in Las Vegas.

Extravagan­t in style, the palatial estate offers a total of 21,861 square feet, including a mansion with 11 bedrooms and 14 bathrooms. There are also two guesthouse­s, indoor and outdoor pools, a pool house, two detached garages, a 20-car subterrane­an garage and a vineyard across 1.41 acres.

A column-lined porte-cochere marks the entry to the main home, which sports heated floors and an elevator. Patios and loggias span the backside, leading into a turfand-stone courtyard with a fountain pool at the center.

Drought-tolerant plants add color to the desert landscape.

This is the second time Mayweather has dropped eight figures on a home in the last two years. In 2017, he paid $25.5 million for a Beverly Hills home.

After retiring in 2015 following an undefeated career, Mayweather returned last year to fight MMA star Conor McGregor, earning an estimated $275 million in the process. He is reportedly in talks for a rematch against Manny Pacquiao.
