The Rant: Floyd Mayweather bets on the right bull
March 23, 2011
Floyd Mayweather doesn’t lose. Period.
His record stands at 41-0 in the professional boxing ring.
But on Tuesday night, he became an even bigger winner after laying cash down at a resort he was staying at in Las Vegas.
Mayweather bet a hefty amount of green that the Atlanta Hawks wouldn’t outscore the Bulls by six points or more in the second half.
He came out a winning man, as the Bulls prevailed over Atlanta 42-38 in the second half.
The five-division world champion posted a picture of himself on his Twitter account Wednesday morning, with a betting slip from a resort in Las Vegas and tweeted, “My lil’ brother Derrick Rose will always get you Paid.”
So how did Rose and company get Mayweather paid? Try $37,272.75.
Maybe this will spark Mayweather to place another bet on the Bulls to hoist the NBA Championship this June.
