Floyd Mayweather Purchased 100 Cars in 18 Years From One Las Vegas Dealer

It's good to be Floyd "Money" Mayweather.

The famed boxer has so many cars he hasn't driven them all yet. To be fair, when your collection includes a 650-hp Enzo and a Lamborghini Aventador you would probably find it difficult to make time for all of them as well.

USA Today reported Thursday that Mayweather has purchased over 100 different cars over the last 18 years from the same Las Vegas dealership and he'll probably buy another right before his big fight on May 2 with Manny Pacquiao.

"He'll buy a car before a fight. He'll buy cars after the fight. He'll buy cars on holidays," said Josh Towbin of Towbin Motorcars in Las Vegas, according to USA Today.

Towbin Motorcars is more than happy to cater to Mayweather whenever he feels like browsing for a car. Even if he gets the urge at 2 a.m.

"We never know when Floyd will get the bug to come car shopping," Jesika Towbin-Mansour said to USA Today. "It can even be in the middle of the night. There was one time that he gave us a call at two in the morning and of course we happily opened the store for him and he came in and bought a couple of cars."

The Welterweight Title holder is expected to make upwards of $100 million from his fight with "Pac Man" next month, according to ESPN. That should help Mayweather buy a couple new Rolls-Royces if he wishes. It's not like he doesn't already own 16 or anything.

Oh wait, he does.

"These cars are an extension of his persona. They are the best of the best, as he is," Jesika added.

Mayweather always pays for his new rides in cash, because why not? He's the highest-paid athlete in the world. To handle Mayweather's visits, Towbin Motorcars even had to purchase a cash-counting machine just to be ready for the next time he shows up with a bag of dough.

In a recent interview with ESPN, Mayweather also admitted he has $15 million worth of vehicles that he's never used just sitting around his garage in Vegas collecting dust.

We were wrong. It is great to be Floyd "Money" Maywether.
