Mayweather said that he wanted to act in films and was very good friends with “The Matrix” franchise producer Joel Silver. According to the New York Post, he added that he was comfortable working in front or behind the camera.

He said his favourite films include “Training Day,” “Troy,” “Gladiator,” and his top pick was “Let’s Do It Again,” starring Bill Cosby, Jimmie Walker and Sidney Poitier.

Mayweather is expected to make up to 100 million dollars this year with an upcoming fight against Saul “Canelo” Alvarez that’s expected to break pay-per-view records.
