Retired American boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. has been known to masterfully dodge hits but this time that didn’t come inside the boxing ring.
Rather, it was his car collection that took a severe blow with reports that four expensive vehicles went up in smoke when a trailer transporting his rides from Las Vegas to Miami caught fire.

The incident happened somewhere in Arizona at around 1:31 a.m. last October 7. The cars which were reportedly burned to a crisp included Mayweather’s Bentley, two Rolls Royce and one of his custom jeeps.
There were no fatalities reported on the incident though the cause of the fire has yet to be determined.

According to TMZ, the cars were being shipped by Obi Okeke through Fusion Luxury Motors, the same guy who sold the undefeated American boxer the most expensive car in the world -- a Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita -- reportedly worth nearly $5 million.
Okeke has sold a total of 39 cars to Mayweather, usually delivering when the boxer calls him up for rare model cars.
Among the vehicles that he has sold to the flamboyant one include a $3.2 million Ferrari Enzo and three Bugatti Veyrons that are worth $6.2 million combined.
Now that Mayweather’s exotic car collection has taken a hit, will the retired American boxer be asking Okeke for possible replacements? Before that happens, check out the video for a closer look at Floyd's car collection.
