Topic: Floyd Mayweather detained in Dubai due to gambling debts? (Read 388 times)
No matter how rich a person is if they become addicted to the casino, the money will run out quickly. He may have borrowed too much and was arrested because he could not pay it back. While Mayweather is known for his lavish lifestyle and flaunting his wealth on social media, it's important to note that his wealth is largely a product of his boxing success rather than seeking attention.
Though that may be the case, a millionaire can quickly lose their money especially if they burn high rates at a given casino.
I have always been curious how these millionaires, billionaires even, lose this much money just from gambling. Did they bet on their money one time, big time and lost? Or was it the accumulation of all the betting they did?Just take a look at Bruno Mars. Household name, loved and adored by many and most importantly an extremely rich person now on a gambling debt of a $50 million usd. It’s insane to think but most of them can pay it back anyway. Rich people and their extravagant lifestyle are so incredibly interesting.
Just to have a simple discussion, the Saudi government allow a few people to gamble and invite Floyd? Just one of the things we don't know, peasants could get hanged in public if they gambled and were caught.
That is because the law for the rich and the poor or normal citizen is totally different. We do get this a lot from different countries even if Saudi is strict for their laws and religious matters. There can always be an exception about it.
Anyway, has this already been said to be real? because Floyd from his alias as Money definitely can pay anything he wants to.
Floyd is indeed rich. $500M is probably nothing for him but he is in another country. Those oil kingpins are richer than him. It's different when you're in another country, crazy why there is no media coverage about this issue about him. I can think of the worse that happened already like he was being raped by a bearded guy over there while the camera is focused on his dick and his face. And then demand he pay double or else release the video.
Something is happening and he isn't found elsewhere and no video appearance despite the biggest fight Usyk vs Fury happened in there.
I can't imagine those moments that you said. Because it's true that there have been cases about that those men from there really will rape even a guy without a beard.
I've read headlines about that and maybe the media is protecting Floyd with that and that's why no news about this if this is for real.

Floys isnt able to pay his bill or debt - that sounds fake. I will never believe that he isnt able to pay a debt, but I can believe in him being greedy and simply not wanting to pay what he owes 
Ive seen celebrities acting like everyone owes them and they can take and get everything for free. For example going to restaurant, eating and walking away without paying. Because it was an honour for restaurant owner to feed them. I assume something similar happened with Floyd.
I think that can be true too because I think the guy seems not active in the boxing scene anymore which can earn him lot of money and even if we say that he is still active, the money that he borrowed can also be very huge, for him to struggle paying it. Much more if he got addicted to gambling because all or most of this money are only going to it. Ive seen celebrities acting like everyone owes them and they can take and get everything for free. For example going to restaurant, eating and walking away without paying. Because it was an honour for restaurant owner to feed them. I assume something similar happened with Floyd.If it was only a dinner or something in a resto, etc... it might not be a very big deal but we are talking about debts here and celebrities won't just borrow a small amount as it doesn't make sense because they can only earned it easily. If I'm a celebrity I will still show a respect to everyone and I can even pay more or donate my money.
I would have given the source the benefit of the doubt on Floyd losing some bets but being held by the Saudi Government? That's what I find all cap. I was thinking Floyd's money transfer was just taking time to clear that's why he wasn't allowed by the owner of the private casino to leave.
Then his nickname "Money" should be replaced by "Debt", just kidding.
It's just a rumor, i read an article contradicting this story where Maywether donated $30k as charitable deed, its only Davis who spreading the rumors, next time we can see is a lawsuit of libel agaisnt him (Davis) if Maywether will do.

I doubt of this, he won't be "Money" Mayweather for nothing. He's a rich athlete and not to mention big company sponsors and his advertisements which is enough for him to live his life to the fullest. He'd be able to pay this debt of him if this is true. Well yes, many celebrities and personalities have been involved with isrresponsible gambling patterns but that's because they have the money. They know how much theit networth is, which gives them the courage to bet big amounts like with Drake's controversial bets on the NBA and Boxing matches. I don't really invest that much time on such news because if I would be comparing myself to them, it won't make any sense due to differences with financial capacity and risk appetite. But the idea is there, which is to control your betting pattern and avoid betting that much however, that's something we all knew right from the start of our gambling careers.
It does not matter if this is an old news or not. What is interesting about the is that our celebrities have a gambling problem. Well some are known others are hidden from the public. Or at least for now I know of Micheal Jordan problem I also know of drake's gambling problem. I cannot categorically tell if they are struggling with gambling addiction, however what is clear is that there is a problem they have with gambling.
Most likely if you have lots and lots of money and you already bought everything available in this world to buy, you start to give less care about where you spend your money again and since celebrities don't have much interest in going to some financial education, they are always fallen to such kind of habit where most of their friends in behind the curtain are also doing it and as we can see right now, more of them are now exposed and also this is a warning from other celebrities if they don't spend their money on something beneficial, they will end up wasting it just like these guys.

Yes gambling,drugs,killings get you hanged in the city square in Saudi but apparently they are making some exceptions whenever there are celebrities and high profile individuals from other countries as long as they are not Muslims I assume.I never saw any Muslim person to be let gambling in Saudi Arabia while other religions are permitted and I think it is all about the money,as long as the state gets money in without risking their nationals they welcome them in such type of "casinos" and this is totally against the law there,this Floyd guy has the right to call them to trial if justice works there,as they have broken their own rules
by allowing gambling to happen which is strictly prohibited in their religion.That's right, from what I heard, some of the rules that apply in Saudi Arabia can be set aside when you have a big influence or are a famous person, for example Cristiano Ronaldo, he is still not married to his girlfriend even though in Saudi Arabia sharing a house without marriage is prohibited, to be honest When I read the news that OP presented, I was shocked by the amount that Myweather had to pay, I thought he was really addicted to gambling.
I have seen a video where the news is just like rumors without confirmation if he really lost gambling because gambling is illegal in Dubai. Or if it is true that there is an amount that he actually lost in gambling, it turns out that the gambling casino he went to may be a private casino like that.
And some are saying that there are rumors that he was kidnapped in Dubai, and others are saying that he has a debtor, so here it seems like the news is just rumors or fake news because, in fact, there is still a match approaching on June 15, 2024.

I don't know maybe some of these celebrities are doing this to make more fame or they are just making a display of their chronic gambling addictive nature, how on earth will someone have that kind of money to gamble with, when there are other interesting investment he could have use the money for and improve lives, there is no doubt that on the buzz of the news event over his debt circular and trends alone will yield him more money as income because everyone hearing about this will like to go online to read more further on how it all happened, am sure where he is now, he is not being scared for paying them back because of his capacity to do so, but this entire act is uncalled for.
The news was later debunked to be false information but I don't think there is no smoke without fire, there is something odd about the story, it's either he is owing them as it was reported but the amount isn't upto what was called in the media but because he is a star, they made it look so expensive to catch attention because you know, his lifestyle is always public attention person, always showing stack of money just to prove a point to when they owed companies money.
This is just a message for everyone that like to glorified celebrities as role model, they are just normal human beings like us who got into fame and are bound to behave like normal human being or even worse than a normal or average human being. I have seen him been in the news for bad things than many times than 50 cent he shade all the time.
As we do all know that you could really be wealthy or having that tons of money but we do also know that there's no such thing about unlimited fund on which does simply means too that you could really be on the top
and crash down into the bottom if you wont really be that careful in terms of spending up your money and gambling could change your life if you wont be careful.
I cant reallythat believe that Mayweather did experienced out or having this kind of condition knowing this guy loves to flex tons of cash plus with those expensive cars that he had
and now seeing this kind of news or condition which could give out that impression that he had that made up that nasty mistake in together with that dealing of gambling.
It is said that the Saudis detained Floyd due to gambling debt. While we assume this country doesn't allow gambling, the report says that this casino is an invite-only for high rollers and that Floyd "Money" Mayweather is possibly in debt of $100M and he ain't going home until he settles the amount. I think he has already broken the record for the biggest gambling losses that celebrities have made. Mike Jordan and Tiger Woods's loss is nothing.

I'm surprised I haven't heard something about this if it is true. You'd think it would be big news that's plastered all over the internet. Holding someone hostage, especially a celebrity would seemingly be gossip worthy. However, it wouldn't surprise me if this were actually true. Floyd Mayweather may be insanely rich and flaunts it like nobody else, but he's also been accused of not paying his debts plenty of times. I think most recently with Logan Paul, where Logan claims he still hasn't been paid everything that Floyd owes him and it's been years...
There is no news actually about Floyd anymore. I tried looking up more information about this but nothing so far.
Rick Glaser however confirmed this information that Floyd is in Dubia still detained. Here is one of his tweets about it backed by an article about it. https://x.com/RealRickGlaser1/status/1784876149568417911

Not sure why there is not much talk in the media but I think there is politics behind this.
According to various posts on the internet, he has a net worth of at least $400 million, so being unable to pay $100 million seems strange. If the news is true, he just needs to sell some of his mansions and other assets, so it shouldn't be a big problem. FYI, he earned $300 million fighting McGregor in 2018 and more than $1 billion in his entire career.
I did not see anywhere that says he is in gambling dept of $100 million. I only saw $$$$ and the amount was not stated. Where did you see $100 million? That is not a small amount of money. $100 million is too much enough to be used for a business. This is an addiction that I am seeing in the man if true.

And how did it impact you "a lot", you went to the hospital because you had a heart attack because of that? You got fired from your job because Floyd is a gambler? Did your plane crash?
What impact do you talk about, he's a just a celebrity like 1000 more, we are 9 billions on this earth, I'm pretty sure yeah, people in Ukraine and Palestine or Myanmar are for sure "affected' by those news, suddenly their life changed! /s

I have an 8-year-old son who also really likes soccer and boxing, where he practices both sports, he admires Mayweather a lot, and really that act that the boxer did is not a good example for him, for me that It has an impact because I had to talk to my son about it so that he doesn't imitate something like what he did in his life, so if it impacts my life, although it is not something so relevant for others, it does for me.

I believe they now have personal feud, hence, throwing some bad blood to each other. Also, I don't believe he had debts why he was detained for some reason. He has big name and a lot of money, I don't think he will be treated such in Dubai. Your thoughts on this situation is more likely to happen, as we know he is a greedy rich individual.
Mayweather's response to Davis is that he posted photo enjoying Dubai's coastline.

I assume something similar happened with Floyd.This is possible to happened since he is gambling overseas which means if the OP number for debt was right, He will need time to liquidate assets in able to pay that kind of debt and wired to Saudi casino account.
But yeah we all know that Floyd has a lot of cash which he always flaunts in social media. I’m doubtful too that smart guy like him with overflowing cash will gamble irresponsibly on foreign country. It’s not even possible to have that kind of credit line in an overseas casino.
