Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s alleged status as “functionally bankrupt” doesn’t mean he’s legally required to disclose financial account statements and contracts related to a proposed fight against Mike Zambidis in Greece, a federal judge recently held.
U.S. District Judge Vernon Broderick’s July 24 ruling comes as part of a lawsuit brought by CSI Entertainment, a company contracted to produce Mayweather’s upcoming fights against Mike Tyson and Manny Pacquiao.
CSI sued Mayweather last month for breach of contract, accusing the 49-year-old former world champion of reneging on his written obligation to refrain from “participating in any other boxing match, professional or exhibition, prior to the [Tyson fight] without CSI’s prior written consent.”
Although the dates have been in flux and are subject to disagreement in the litigation, CSI indicates Mayweather will box Tyson on Sept. 26 and then, on a date to be determined, fight Pacquiao.
CSI emphasizes the value of those fights involving boxing legends. Mayweather, who has a 50-0 career record and won 15 world championships across five weight classes, hasn’t fought since an exhibition bout against John Gotti III in 2024 and hasn’t fought professionally since his 2017 bout against UFC champion Conor McGregor.
