Mayweather expects to make $80M from exhibition bouts in 2019

It's shaping up to be a busy year for Floyd Mayweather Jr.

The 41-year-old told TMZ Sports he has several exhibition bouts lined up for 2019, the first of which is taking place this summer against a former Japanese boxer, though he didn't reveal the fighter's name.

"I got another one in Japan, I think in July," he said. "Light $10 million, three rounds ... just in exhibitions alone this year, just about four or five exhibitions, (I'll make) $80 million."

Mayweather's last fight was an exhibition match against Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa on New Year's Eve, which paid him $9 million.

According to Forbes, Mayweather was the world's highest-paid athlete in 2018, with $285 million in estimated earnings.
