Floyd Mayweather has spent three-quarters of a million pounds completing his collection of luxury watches.
Mayweather, who retired from professional boxing in 2017, earned an estimated £900 million ($1.2 billion) during his professional boxing career, after which he continued to earn cash through exhibition matches.

The 47-year-old has an estimated net worth of £336million and has made a number of jaw-dropping purchases.
This includes a £20million car collection, properties – one of which he recently sold for $22.5million – and a collection of watches.
And now he has added a stunning jeweled set of four AV & Co watches to his collection.
The four watches – which are all members of the Hue Collection – are available in four different colours; blue, green, red and pink.

With this purchase he becomes the first person in the world to own a complete set; previously these watches were kept in a special edition winder-display box in New York.
Established in 2009, AV & Co regularly provides luxury goods to its star-studded clientele.
Following his purchase, Mayweather said on Instagram, “When the craftsmanship at @aviandco is so exquisite, choosing just one watch wasn’t an option… so I purchased all four watches from the exclusive ‘Hue Collection.'”

“This is the kind of quality you can only get from a jeweller who is available 24 hours a day, where the service is as precious as the jewellery itself.
“Special thanks to @Forbes for consistently recognising me and others with a positive outlook – it’s always an excellent job.
He added: “The Hue Collection is so impressive.
“People are constantly asking me about my AV & Co watches. It just feels right.”
Forbes reported that Mayweather already owns seven watches.
Designer Evie Hiawe said: “He is a very close friend of mine. We have been in business for a long time and even outside of business we are there for each other.
“We talk about other things. He’s always been a supporter of mine.”
Mayweather’s last exhibition bout was last month in a rematch against John Gotti III – a fight in which Mayweather swung an axe at the referee mid-fight.
