Floyd Mayweather Owes IRS $3.4 Million In Back Taxes

Boxing great, Floyd Mayweather Jr., recently bragged about cashing in $37,000 on a wager he made on a Chicago Bulls basketball game, but that cash may have to go to Uncle Sam.
According to The Detroit News, Mayweather has been hit with a $3.4 million tax bill from the IRS for income taxes from 2009, the year he came out of a year-long retirement to fight Juan Manuel Márquez, during which he reportedly earned $25 million.
The IRS filed the lien, which equals exactly $3,359,279, in late January with the Clark County Recorder in Nevada.
The boxer has had past problems with the IRS, this being the latest. Nearly three years ago, Mayweather was hit with a bull for $6.1 million in unpaid income taxes, and later negotiated a payment plan.
Mayweather and/or his camp have not commented on the new tax issue.
