Speaking of dolla bills, Jackson is also widely known for being very close friends with Floyd “Money” Mayweather, arguably the best boxer in the world after Manny Pacquiao’s controversial loss earlier this summer.

Mannix also reports that the TMT company already has two clients: gold medalist and former featherweight champ Yuriorkis Gamboa and middleweight, and former Olympic medalist Andre Dirrell.
