Mayweather IRS Debt Officially Revealed

Mayweather IRS Debt Officially Revealed

The Floyd Mayweather IRS debt has been officially revealed by the IRS in the US and it is all about to crash down around Mayweather big time.

All the years of the ‘Money’ Mayweather bull crap is coming home to roost for him now.

No where to hide and no one to protect him anymore from all sorts of problems that are hitting him like a cement brick to the head right now.

Here are the key facts from what we now know on Floyd Mayweather’s tax issue and exhibitions:

IRS Action

  • Notification: The IRS informed Mayweather in late March 2026 of its intention to notify the State Department to revoke his U.S. passport.
  • Reason: Unresolved “seriously delinquent tax debt” upward of $7.25 million, $7.3 million specifically.
  • Tax years: Debt tied to unpaid federal taxes from 2018 and 2023.
  • Lien filed: IRS filed a lien in Las Vegas in March 2026.
  • Legal basis: Under U.S. law, State Department can deny/revoke passport when IRS certifies seriously delinquent debt above set threshold. 

Impact on Exhibitions

  • Mike Zambidis fight: Planned June 27, 2026 exhibition in Athens, Greece. Without valid passport, international travel restricted.
  • Mike Tyson exhibition: Announced Sept 4, 2025 by Mayweather, but no date/location revealed. Also in question due to passport issue.
  • Promoters: No update on contingency plans for Greece event. If moved to U.S., Zambidis loses value — he’s a massive icon in Greece but “relative unknown” in U.S.. 

Other Context

  • Timing: IRS notified Mayweather nearly a month before he officially announced the Zambidis exhibition on April 23.
  • Pacquiao rematch: Separate Sept 19, 2026 fight talks ongoing. Mayweather signed for professional bout but now claims it’s exhibition. Pacquiao said “It’s either a real fight or nothing”.
  • Financial pressure: Mayweather also facing lawsuits for unpaid private jet charter $105,690, $900k loan default, $338k Manhattan rent, $1.675M jewelry. Filed $340M suit vs Showtime.
  • History: Settled $22.2M IRS bill for 2015 taxes. Ordered to pay $5.5M + $1.1M penalty for 2017 taxes. 

If passport revoked, Mayweather can’t leave U.S., so Greece exhibition vs Zambidis and potential Tyson fight are in jeopardy — Mayweather is 49. 

Mayweather vs Tyson is gone anyway as it was meant to happen in April and today is May 1 2026.

Organizers over there won’t deal with Mayweather anymore now.

He needs to make the Pacman 2 fight in the US asap for his sake as a real rematch and professional fight.
