Boxing legend Floyd 'Money' Mayweather is coming to South Yorkshire - and this is how you can meet him

Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather will be taking part in a live interview and Q&A session at Magna in Rotherham on Sunday, March 8 – and guests can also have their picture taken with the star.

Mayweather, who is retired and last took to the ring in 2018, held world titles in five weight classes and was once listed as the highest-paid athlete on the planet.

The Magna event – billed as ‘An Afternoon with Floyd Mayweather’ – is led by 26RR Promotions, who say the sportsman’s upcoming engagements will ‘probably be the last time’ he will tour the UK.

There are three types of ticket available.

Platinum tickets cost £299.99 individually and include a signed boxing glove, a professional photo with Mayweather, a one-course meal and a chance to ask questions personally.

Gold tickets priced £149.99 will secure the buyer all of the above apart from a signed glove, while silver tickets – costing £34.99 – allow audience members to watch the event from tiered seating.

Mayweather is believed to be worth hundreds of millions of pounds, earned through winnings and endorsements. He is rumoured to own over 100 cars and in 2018 he paid $7.7 million in cash for a five-bedroom Miami mansion with a ‘floating staircase’.
