Floyd Mayweather, the undefeated boxing legend, recently found himself in a whirlwind of events during his extended stay in Dubai, UAE. From exhibition matches to legal troubles, Mayweather’s time in the Middle East has been nothing short of dramatic. Recently Rick Glaser revealed that the Dubai government has released Floyd Mayweather after he paid up his debt in Dubai and he has safely returned to the USA.
#Dubai/#UAE released #FloydMayweather, as he's paid up in Dubai, & he's now back in America, handing out 30,000 dollars to the homeless in #LA before the #Clippers #NBA Playoff game Thursday night. I don't think he'll want to owe any money in the middle eastern countries ever…

Mayweather’s journey in Dubai began with an exhibition match against YouTuber Deji at the Coca-Cola Arena in November 2022. The anticipation was high, and fans flocked to witness the clash between the five-division champion and the online sensation. In a sixth-round TKO victory, Mayweather emerged triumphant, leaving Deji both disappointed and proud. Deji, also known as Comedy Shorts Gamer, managed to bruise the American, showcasing his resilience in the ring.
Floyd Mayweather’s Return to Dubai
This wasn’t Floyd Mayweather’s first rodeo in Dubai. In May 2022, he faced off against Don Moore in another exhibition match in the UAE. Originally scheduled to take place atop the iconic Burj Al Arab, the fight was later moved to Abu Dhabi.
Mayweather expressed his delight at being part of such an iconic event in an iconic city, emphasizing the unparalleled boxing experience that Global Titans provided to fans.
However, Floyd Mayweather’s Dubai adventure took an unexpected turn. Reports suggest that he was “fronted” a substantial amount of cash at a private “casino” in or near Dubai. Unfortunately, he lost all the money, and now he finds himself unable to leave Dubai until he settles his debt.
Boxing promoter Rick Glaser revealed that Mayweather is being detained by the UAE government court system. The situation has raised eyebrows and added a layer of intrigue to Mayweather’s already colorful career.
Floyd Mayweather’s Dubai escapade has been a rollercoaster ride of victories, controversies, and legal entanglements. As he steps back onto American soil, handing out $30,000 to the homeless in LA, one thing is certain: Mayweather won’t want to owe any money in the Middle Eastern countries ever again!
