Floyd Mayweather Jr’s grandson already has an impressive real estate portfolio at just three-years-old.
For Christmas, Mayweather purchased a building for his grandson, Kentrall Gaulden Jr—son of Mayweather’s daughter Iyanna ‘YaYa’ and rapper NBA YoungBoy.
Mayweather reportedly entered into an agreement to purchase a prominent building in New York City for over $20 million. The property, located at 1196 6th Ave, sits in the Diamond District. The building features a diamond exchange, multiple offices, and a massive, revenue-generating billboard.
On December 25, the former world champion hopped on his Instagram story to share a video clip where KJ can be seen excitedly approaching Mayweather to give the undefeated boxer his Christmas present. As Mayweather accepted the sweet gesture, he asked, “You got me this? Well, guess what Papa bought you…Wait lemme put this [TV] on mute. Guess what I bought you?” Kentrall asked, “What?”
“You the first kid that owned a building in the Diamond district in New York City. We bought you a building,” the former champ replied.
After Mayweather told his Kentrall about his massive gift, he gave his pop-pop a hug and eagerly switched his attention to the Build-A-Bear gift for Mayweather.
Mayweather opened up a box and revealed a teddy bear dressed in a business suit in honor of his grandfather’s entrepreneurial spirit.
The recent gesture adds to Mayweather’s reputation as a strategic investor. Since October, he has expanded his real estate portfolio significantly, starting with a $402 million investment in Upper Manhattan, where he acquired 60 buildings with over 1,000 units focused on affordable housing. In November, he also purchased a stake in Miami’s iconic Versace Mansion.
