# Floyd Mayweather: The man who gifted a building
Sometimes one wonders what to give at Christmas. A sweater? A perfume? A building in Manhattan? Because of course, when you are Floyd Mayweather, the former world boxing champion with an unbeaten record of 50 victories, the options for surprising go a little beyond the typical pair of socks.
A 20 million euro gift
Floyd, known both for his skill in the ring and for his extravagances outside of it, decided to gift his three-year-old grandson a building in the heart of New York's Diamond District. Yes, you read that right, a building. And we're not talking about just any structure, but a property valued at around 20 million euros. Located on 6th Avenue and 47th Street, this real estate gem is situated in one of the most exclusive areas of the Big Apple.
The little one's reaction upon receiving such a present was, as expected, quite amusing. Apparently, the child was more interested in other toys more suited to his age. Not surprisingly, right? What child wouldn't prefer a toy train over a building?
The boxing real estate magnate
Desde su retiro en 2017, Mayweather no solo ha sabido mantener su fortuna, sino que la ha multiplicado. ¿Cómo? A través de inversiones en bienes raíces, claro. En octubre, desembolsó más de 400 millones de euros para adquirir más de 60 propiedades en Nueva York. ¿Quién necesita una alcancía cuando tienes una cartera inmobiliaria así de impresionante?
Pero no todo es Nueva York para Floyd. También extendió su colección con una participación en la icónica Mansión Versace de Miami. Parece que Mayweather siempre tiene un ojo puesto en las propiedades de lujo. ¿Acaso está planeando construir un imperio inmobiliario? No lo descartemos.
Between diamonds and Mercedes-Benz
The building that now belongs to his grandson (at least symbolically) is not just a concrete block. It has offices, a giant advertising sign, and, of course, a specialized store for buying and selling diamonds. If this doesn't scream "Floyd Mayweather," I don't know what does.
This is not the boxer’s first extravagant gesture. In 2019, he gifted his daughter Iyanna a Mercedes-Benz G63 valued at 180,000 dollars. It seems that when Mayweather talks about sharing his fortune, he means it seriously. And who wouldn't want to be on his gift list?
The future of the Mayweather family
Floyd, always with a smile and a wink, has declared that he enjoys finding ways to secure his family's future. And he certainly does it in style. While some might argue that an iPad could have sufficed for his grandson, others will say that a building is a pretty solid long-term investment.
In short, Floyd Mayweather shows that, in addition to being a master of boxing, he also knows how to leave the world in awe. Who knows what surprises he will bring us next year? Perhaps a private island or, even better, a spaceship. With Floyd, anything is possible.
