Floyd Mayweather Ordered to Pay $340,000 in Dispute Over Luxury Manhattan Rental
Retired boxing champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. has been directed by a New York judge to pay roughly $340,000 following a default judgment in an unpaid rent lawsuit. Property owners Leila and David Centner alleged that Mayweather failed to keep up with his monthly rent at a luxury residence in Midtown Manhattan.
Retired undefeated boxing champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. has been ordered to pay roughly $340,000 following a default judgment entered by a New York judge in a luxury rental dispute, according to reporting from Black Enterprise citing Realtor.com.
The judgment resolves a lawsuit initiated by property owners Leila and David Centner, who took legal action through their business entities after accusing Mayweather of failing to fulfill lease payments for a high-end apartment located at the Baccarat Hotel and Residences in Midtown Manhattan. Mayweather had initially secured the lease for the residence in late 2024 at an agreed rate of $100,000 per month.
According to the filed allegations, the rental arrangement deteriorated over the course of 2025 when Mayweather allegedly ceased making his monthly payments. The Centners subsequently pursued legal remedies, initially maintaining that the former boxer owed upwards of $500,000 in delinquent rent and
Reporting from People indicated that Mayweather previously reached an agreement to resolve the outstanding debt balance by Dec. 2, 2025. However, court filings from the property owners asserted that he submitted only a single additional payment of $100,000 and did not clear the rest of the balance. After applying that singular payment alongside his existing security deposit, the owners calculated the final outstanding damages at approximately $337,736.
The condominium at 20 W. 53rd St. is a expansive five-bedroom home that features a private terrace. The Centners originally purchased two separate units in the Midtown building in 2016 and combined them into a customized multilevel residence. According to records cited from CityRealty, the residence has since been sold for an amount approaching $20 million.
Mayweather concluded his professional fighting career with an unblemished 50-0 record and has since directed capital into commercial ventures, real estate, and exhibitions. However, this legal outcome follows other reported financial proceedings. The Las Vegas Review-Journal reported in April that the Internal Revenue Service submitted a federal tax lien against Mayweather exceeding $7 million.
Mayweather's representatives have previously rejected claims that he faces monetary instability, maintaining that his business enterprises remain sound. Kulture Newz has not independently confirmed Mayweather's current overall financial status or existing obligations.
