UFC legend Michael Bisping admitted it is hard to believe that Floyd Mayweather is “broke”.
Mayweather is the highest-paid fighter of all time and claimed he made $1.2BILLION (£950m) throughout his career.

But the likes of former friend and business partner-turned online rival 50 Cent have argued otherwise.
The rapper in 2020 said on radio: “I think he got to right now because the money’s gone.
“It’s fight, get the money, spend the money, fight.”
Mayweather and 50 Cent – real name Curtis Jackson – were once inseparable but fell out in 2012 following a row over money.

So it makes Jackson’s allegations hard to believe due to their feud and his love for trolling.
Ex-UFC champion Bisping is among those who doubt Mayweather is strapped for cash – but acknowledged he is a big spender.
Bisping, 43, said on his podcast: “Apparently, people said that Floyd’s broke. I can’t see how that’s the reality.
“The man’s earned so much money. Granted he spends a lot; flashy lifestyle, private jets, cars, watches, you name it, and the rest.

“No doubt a bunch of baby mamas and taxes. There’s a lot of ways to spend money, but still, I find that him being broke is a little hard to believe.”
Mayweather, 45, officially retied in 2017 after beating UFC superstar Conor McGregor, 33, which he claimed earned him over £300m.
But he has boxed in three exhibition bouts since, most recently against ex-sparring partner Don Moore in Abu Dhabi.
