American boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather has again come out on top of the list of the world’s top-paid sports stars. The undefeated 37-year-old star fought just twice in the last 12 months, but despite his lack of endorsements he raked in enough from the bouts against Canelo Alvarez and Marcos Maidana to collect an astonising $105 million – or £66m. No wonder he’s nicknamed himself ‘Money’, and constantly flouts his wealth with pictures on Instagram.
