Earlier in February, Touch made headlines for his travels in the US and regular visits with longtime friend Mayweather, who boasts a record of 50 fights undefeated in a career that spanned from 1996 to 2017 and saw him amass a net worth of as much as $1 billion, with more conservative estimates putting it at more than $500 million.
