LAS VEGAS — Boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. is due to make good on a promise to a Nevada judge to donate $100,000 to a breast cancer support organization.
The undefeated prizefighter is scheduled to present a check Wednesday at his gym in Las Vegas to officials from the Susan G. Komen for the Cure research and support foundation in Las Vegas.
Foundation executive Stephanie Kirby tells The Associated Press the donation will go a long way at the nonprofit. It operates with about a $1 million annual budget.
Mayweather’s lawyers promised the judge who sentenced Mayweather in December in a domestic battery case that the boxer would make the donation.
Mayweather, who goes by the nickname “Money,” is due to serve a 90-day jail sentence in the case beginning June 1.
