Here’s one for Black excellence. Floyd Mayweather Jr. proves that his business acumen extends beyond the boxing ring. After retiring from his legendary career, the champion fighter has turned to real estate, and his latest venture is thriving. In a recent Instagram post, Mayweather proudly shared the fruits of his investment, showcasing 62 newly acquired apartment buildings in New York City.
“I love bringing people into my lifestyle, showing the people how I live,” Mayweather said in a video he posted online. “Now I know you guys see me on the regular talking about real estate. Well, lately, I purchased 62 apartment buildings in New York City. And what I need you guys to do? Slide over [through the Instagram collage], check out the photos.”
Here’s the post on the Gram:
Considered by many as the GOAT in the ring, Mayweather emphasized that he owns all of the properties outright, with no partners involved. “Guess what? All the buildings belong to me, I don’t have no partners,” Mayweather continued. “And all the retail down low on my buildings all belong to me. Guess what? You can do the same. It’s about making power moves.”
Moreover, Mayweather also clarified that the Instagram collage didn’t include pictures of all 62 buildings but provided enough of a snapshot to highlight their locations and scale. The 48-year-old added a motivational note to the post, encouraging others to follow his lead. “This is just inspiration & motivation for the people who are interested in real estate,” he wrote in the caption. “Just showing you a little glimpse of my portfolio.

Here’s what’s interesting and respectable for many reasons. The properties Mayweather showcased appear in uptown Manhattan and Harlem, two neighborhoods that have seen growing interest in recent years. The former boxer also highlighted his recent purchase of the Morningside Portfolio for $402 million, rounding out his expansive real estate holdings. Additionally, Mayweather owns properties in cities like Jersey City, Chicago, and Miami, further cementing his status as a savvy investor.
