He made a lot of money, but in his mind, that made him a great genius, a great business genius, a great genius in life. And because he overrated life, he ran out of money,\u201d said Arum to Fight Hub TV.<\/p>\n<p>Arum pointed to Mayweather\u2019s spending habits as the reason he believes the former champion is facing financial problems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can\u2019t, no matter how much money you have, you can\u2019t have two big planes, 10 security guards. It\u2019s going to cost you money. So again, I\u2019m really sad to see that happen, but hopefully he\u2019ll get out of it,\u201d said Arum.<\/p>\n<p>The comments came after Mayweather\u2019s scheduled exhibition against Mike Zambidis in Greece was called off amid a legal dispute involving CSI Sports Events. The cancellation has fueled renewed speculation about Mayweather\u2019s exhibition schedule and financial position, although the former champion has repeatedly maintained that his business ventures remain successful.<\/p>\n<p>Mayweather retired from professional boxing with a perfect 50-0 record after defeating Conor McGregor in 2017 before shifting his focus to lucrative exhibition bouts around the world. While Arum questioned the financial decisions that followed Mayweather\u2019s career, he also made clear he hopes his former fighter is able to overcome the reported difficulties.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Youtube video\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" nopin=\"nopin\" class=\"perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1782523285_859_hqdefault.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cIt\u2019s very, very sad, but Floyd had a great career.
