Mayweather was denied a VISA to get into Australia because of his domestic violence conviction, but if he would have gone the publicist for the event outlined the demands he would have had via Boxing Scene.
They aren’t even surprising if you ever watched All-Access or 24/7.
Mayweather’s rooms in Melbourne and Sydney had to be stocked with Cristal champagne and a bottomless supply of gummy bears, M&Ms, fresh fruit and juices.
Mayweather demanded that both hotels have a barber skilled in cutting African-American hair available 24-hours-a-day. He also wanted a butler, chef, makeup artist and a women’s hairdresser on call.
Mayweather’s 31-person entourage – which included a Miss Universe winner, personal DJs, a mascot, agent, security guards, personal assistant and others – required a full floor of rooms.
The promotional tour was supposed to include gala dinners at Crown’s Palladium in Melbourne and Darling Island Wharf in Sydney, where fans would pay $200 to $1000 to be in the presence of the 10-time world champion. Mayweather reserved the right to refuse to take photographs with anyone other than selected top-paying VIPs.
All questions during an audience question-and-answer session would have had to be vetted and approved in advance.
The music at nightclubs Studio 3 and The X-Studio would have had to be chosen by Mayweather’s personal DJs – DJ Jaybling and DJ Efeezy – for the entire time he was there.
In my two person entourage of me and my Beagle Ellie, all she requires is bacon treats be available at all time.
