Boxing legend, Floyd Mayweather, has embarked on an African tour, making stops in various cities across the continent.

The American icon's tour aims to promote local boxers under his brand, The Money Team.

In the past few days, the former Light Middleweight champion made a notable visit to Zimbabwe, accompanied by his entire entourage.

However, it was Mayweather's extravagant visit to South Africa that captured everyone's attention, as he practically bought out the entire Gucci store during his time there.

A video on Twitter has captured the undefeated boxer leaving the store surrounded by a substantial security detail, a rare sight even for celebrities. What makes this incident truly remarkable is the reason behind it.

According to local reports, as cited by Marca, the 46-year-old departed the store after splurging a staggering amount on his shopping spree - believed to exceed $7 million.

The particular video in question was filmed at a Gucci store situated in Sandton City, Johannesburg.
