Floyd Mayweather won $52,000 from a $10,000 wager on Dmitry Bivol to beat Canelo Alvarez.
Alvarez made the switch up in weight to 175lbs where he challenged Russian star Bivol for his light-heavyweight world title at the T-Mobile Arena. But he was outclassed on the night by a sensational display from the champion who inflicted just the second career defeat on the Mexican star.
Mayweather had placed a winning bet on Bivol in the build-up to the fight and shared his winning slip on Instagram, with the caption: "Easy pick up." The boxing legend is the only other fighter to have defeated Alvarez, having done so in 2013 where he cruised to a points victory over the star who went on to become the pound-for-pound No.1
