Nearly two years have passed since his last competitive bout, but Floyd Mayweather Jr. remains as polarizing as ever.

On August 26, the former five-division world champion will make his long-awaited return to the ring to take on UFC superstar Conor McGregor. Mayweather is expected to come out on top, but stranger things have happened between the ropes.

The actual fighting, however, is just one part of the equation — fans will be tuning in for the personalities as much as the punches. Mayweather’s outspoken demeanor, prolific trash talking, and unabashed love of money make him one of the most talked-about figures in sports, and whether those words are positive or negative, they all serve to boost his bottom line.

Check out how Mayweather has accumulated his fortune over the years, as well as how he spends some of that money away from the ring.
