Floyd 'Money' Mayweather gave ESPN reporters an extra treat in the aftermath of his unanimous points decision victory (118-110, 116-112, 116-112) over Manny Pacquaio at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas last weekend.
Having been invited to show off the spoils of victory by the TV hosts, the undefeated welterweight champion said "I don't wanna put it on camera" before pulling a piece of paper from his pocket, and showing the pair of anchors his handwritten $US100m [$127.5 million] winner's cheque.
Mayweather shielded the cheque from the cameras with the official fight summary sheet.
The presenters confirmed that it was "the real deal" before asking the star whether he was familiar with the term "direct deposit".
