Some people have all the luck in the world, and Floyd Mayweather Jr. is one of those people. The pound-for-pound boxing king won big by betting on football games over the weekend once again.
Mayweather took to his Instagram on Monday night to show off his winnings after putting down $800,000 down on the Arizona Cardinals in Week 7. Thanks to Carson Palmer leading the Cardinals to a 24-13 win over the Oakland Raiders on Sunday, Mayweather's pockets just got fatter:
It takes a bold man to put down such a large amount of money on Arizona, but Mayweather has never been one to take a timid approach to betting. It was just a few weeks ago that he bet $720,000 on the Indianapolis Colts and walked away with over $1.4 million after their 44-17 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Bet big, win big. But it wasn't all victories for Mayweather.
He actually posted a loss after betting on the Houston Texans to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers won 30-23 on Monday Night Football, so how much of a hit did Mayweather's bank account take? Just $20,000, which seems like nothing for the professional boxing champ.

So Mayweather's net winnings for the weekend, assuming he didn't bet on any other games, totals to $1,541,904.76. Some people just have all the luck in the world.
Meanwhile, Mayweather is still in need for an opponent for his next fight. Amir Khan and Manny Pacquiao have been considered the top two candidates to face "Money," though nothing is official yet.
