Floyd Mayweather puts his £3.6million Koenigsegg Trevita supercar up for sale at auction to recoup money for his reported tax bill

FIVE division boxing champion Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather is reportedly auctioning his £3.6million Koenigsegg Trevita in a bid to raise funds for his tax bill.

Reports suggest that the 40-year-old owes a considerable amount of money to the IRS for back dated taxes.

The unbeaten boxer is set to sell the 2010 Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita at this year’s Pebble Beach Auction in Monterey between August 16-19th.

‘Money’ has reportedly requested an instalment plan from the IRS until his highly anticipated bout against Conor McGregor.

The boxing legend is reported to £17m in taxes dating back to 2015 – the same year that he defeated Manny Pacquiao to make boxing history.

Despite the fact that Mayweather is expected to earn an estimated £250m from the fight against the Irish UFC Champion – he evidently needs more.

Mayweather tried to sell the supercar in March, but he received no interest in the only US-spec Koenigsegg.

The Mecum website claims that the American originally paid just under £3.7m for the car.

Mayweather’s Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita is one of only two Koenigseggs made with the Diamond Weave exterior finish.

The supercar registers only 1,947 miles on the clock since the boxer purchased it in 2015.

It boasts a 4.8-litre, twin-supercharged V-8 engine that provides 1,018 horsepower – resulting in the car reaching hair-raising speeds of over 250mph.

This car is part of the elite Ash Crest Collection – which is a collection of the best and rarest sports cars on the planet.
