Mayweather does a Mayweather, holds cash during practice


Floyd Mayweather Jr. just did the most Floyd Mayweather Jr. thing ever.

During his training session for his swan song against Andre Berto, the pound-for-pound king called for a wad of cash, about as thick as the length of his forearm, and proceeded to hit the heavy bag.

Showtime Sports posted the video on its Twitter account during “Money’s” open workout.

“I gotta look in my bag, please show me what inspires me,” Mayweather told a member of his posse. “I need motivation, let me hold it while I train. I’ve gotta hold it while I work.”

It wasn’t clear in the video what dollar denominations were in the wad–still, that was a whole lot of money.
