Floyd Mayweather Jr. owes $6.2 million in federal income taxes

[Spicoli]

The kicker is,depending on how late he is....they'll likely get him double that in penalties & interest.

i am glad he owes bigtime, the fkin prick money money money so fkin 90's twat

PBF better not tinker tanker with this situation. His best interest is to settle this and soon! He can ask many a celebrity and they will point to the IRS and back taxes as one terrifying bind to be in, and an imminent doom awaiting if not treated with the right perspective/respect, and settle.

The Brown Bomber got to fighting bears (extreme) in the ring just to pay off tax debts. In the end, it is (taxes) what got him humbled and left a shell of the man most people know as Joe Louis, the legendary former heavyweight champion of the world. His last employment as I recall or one of his last, was as a greeter at MSG, sad indeed!

Taxes, is no laughing matter. It is what brought down Al Capone down (tax evasion) when everything else cannot, and failed!

So the "money" better get the fights while relevant to his career, if needed be, to settle this hiccup, otherwise as mentioined, when the back interests and etc. snowballs, he will likewise find himself in a boxing match with bears in his old age.

As my Mother told me, it takes money to Swank

I dont think he cant afford it,he made 20 million just for that WWE stunt,let a lone what PBF Productions and the record company makes,let alone interest on all the money he's allready banked.
I somehow doubt we'll see Floyd having to be a greeter in Vegas

I am sure the "Money" is fine. From the little birdy...

Floyd doesnt even know what the word tax means. Sure, he can cover it. But he is hardly the type of person you would ever expect to make astute financial decisions.

I have long predicted PBF will be broke if he doesn't grow up. "Money" doesn't go as far as you think. Maintaining the lifestyle has a huge cost, taxes is a big part of that.

You buy a million dollar home and have to pay taxes on it for the rest of your life. Celebs think cause they bought the house they don't have to budget. You have to make your "mortgage" payment to IRS or else they will gestapo your ass.

Record companies are notorious for losing money faster than they make it. I don't think PBF productions has survived long enough to be considered a viable company.

He didn't make 20 million from WWE.

Banks pay interest? How much these days? Aside from that doesn't he keep his money in a backpack under his bed?

I think PBF will be coming out of retirement cause he'll see how fast that money goes. His earnings are small compared to Tyson, Holyfield, etc. Not door greeter but he'll be fighting again.

the record company makes

Record Co. ?
That shit aint no record co. not 1 single hit and or album has come out of there...

Chances are you make more money with your fighters then his record label.

He made approximately one million dollars for his WWE appearance. The $20 million dollar payday was part of the angle(script).

I hate the tax office, just a bit more than Floyds ego.

[Julius Rain]

When ever you owe the IRS millions of dollars, you can consider yourself broke arleady.

Floyd made good with the fights, oscar and hatton. Thats it. That wont last him a life time, and it definitely wont last him 10 years the way his going.

The WWE thing he did, paid him nothing close to 20 million. more like 2 million.

His Record label? doesn't exist.

Fruad Gayfeathers shouldn't be called "money"

Thats now reserve for Money Pacquiao biotch!

[JT Rock]

For once I agree with Dan here... Standard procedure.. You guys would jump on anything Floyd does... If he helped an old lady across the road you would complain he wasnt walking fast enough

frankly the funniest thing on the article is the fact that the site is a boxing site, 'now boxing' but they manage to spell bout as bought..
