Floyd Mayweather is revered for his actions both inside and outside the ring. From dismantling his opponents in the ring to helping out the people in need outside, he has touched the hearts of many. On a similar note, $60 million Floyd Mayweather sent essential items and military equipment to Israel to help them combat the ongoing tensions with Hamas. What’s more, Mayweather even made his stance on the entire situation abundantly clear by claiming he stood with Israel and called for peace.

If his collaboration with a relief organization to provide aid to the victims in Israel wasn’t enough, he called for a solidarity march. The march started from Young Israel of Century City at 10:30 AM and later ended about half a mile away in the Museum of Tolerance. Hundreds of people joined the march alongside elected members and NBA stars, drawing attention to the devastation in Israel. However, Mayweather made the headlines yet again for the same reason as a non-profit organization founder penned a touching note to the former boxer.

Mordchai Lunger, co-founder of Your Business Anytime, recently took to LinkedIn to applaud Mayweather for his efforts in Israel. Lunger thanked Mayweather and Moshe Shapoff, who stood beside Israel during these dire times of need. “This was simply incredible to see. Thank you, Floyd Mayweather and Moshe Shapoff, for making a positive impact,” wrote Lunger. 

He went on to suggest that it’s never easy for popular personalities in the world to come out in support of one side or the other in such situations. However, Mayweather was brave enough to put his image on the line to support Israel. “It’s not easy for high-profile figures to speak out, so let’s ensure we show them the proper appreciation,” Lunger wrote.

Furthermore, Lunger stressed everyone should conduct themselves with integrity, honesty, and ethical behavior in all aspects of life, including business. “We can choose to make a Kiddush Hashem with each interaction and business opportunity,” wrote Lunger.
