Mayweather's steadfast support for Israel has become increasingly evident. The 46-year-old American frequently expresses this support through his social media posts.
Following the outbreak of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine last October, he dispatched his private jets to Tel Aviv, delivering 5000 pounds of supplies to both civilians and the military.
'Money' also joined a march to the Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles last year to demonstrate his support for the Jewish state.
Floyd Mayweather's remarks on the Israel-Palestine conflict
Floyd Mayweather showed his backing for Israeli citizens affected by terrorist attacks perpetrated by Hamas and other Palestinian armed groups in an Instagram post last October:
"I stand with Israel against the Hamas terrorists. Hamas do not represent the people of Palestine but are a terrorist group that are attacking innocent lives! I stand for all humans and wish for the safe return of all Americans and Israelis and any humans that were kidnapped as hostages during these horrific war crimes. This is not a time for politics. This is a time for safety, first and foremost. God Bless America. God Bless Israel. God Bless humankind!"
