In a surprising turn of events, former boxing champion Floyd Mayweather has been ordered by a Nevada judge to pay almost $1 million in arrears for child support, in addition to a monthly obligation of $33,000 for his four‑year‑old daughter. The decision comes after a court determined that Mayweather is the biological father of a child born to a dancer at his Las Vegas strip club. The ruling has sparked renewed interest in the former champion’s personal life and the legal battles that have followed his retirement from the ring.
Court Order Details and Financial Obligations
The Nevada court’s order is one of the most significant child‑support cases involving a high‑profile celebrity in recent years. According to court documents obtained by TMZ Sports, Mayweather must now pay the full amount of the back child support, which totals nearly $1 million. In addition to the lump‑sum payment, the judge has imposed a monthly child‑support obligation of $33,000 for the four‑year‑old girl, a figure that reflects the child’s needs and the father’s substantial income.
Mayweather’s compliance has been limited so far. He has only paid $151,000 of the total amount owed, leaving a substantial balance that could trigger further legal actions. The court’s decision also opens the door for the mother to pursue liens against Mayweather’s assets, potentially affecting his real‑estate holdings in California.
