The Money Team is bound for the Philippines.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. is set to visit the country reportedly on Monday.

The undefeated boxing world champion is seemingly enjoying the retired life as he is on a personal “country hop” aboard his Air Mayweather jet.

“Stopped by the Wat Pho Buddhist Temple in Bangkok, Thailand. Next stop, The Philippines,” he wrote on an Instagram post on Monday.

Mayweather has already made stops in Dubai, Singapore, and Bali, Indonesia.

He last fought Irish mixed martial artist Conor McGregor back in August 2017 and showed no signs of coming back to the ring after improving his immaculate record to 50-0.

It’s unclear, though, if Mayweather will meet former foe Manny Pacquiao in his visit here as most of his Instagram posts show him visiting the tourist spots.

The two met in the ring back in 2015 in what was billed as “The Fight of the Century,” making it the fifth-highest-grossing boxing fight of all time, netting $410 million.
