CANELO ALVAREZ signed a £278million fight deal with US streaming service DAZN last year – and it’s allowed him to splash some of the cash.
The Mexican boxer shelled out £45m for a stunning black yacht that boasts its own jet skis, a jetty and raft.

The 29-year-old, who recently vacated his light-heavyweight world title, posted a video to his Instagram page showing him making waves around the Bahamas.
The clip shows Canelo and stunning girlfriend Fernanda Gomez riding around in jet skis on the crystal clear blues water as the yacht is anchored nearby.
The couple then rides their jet skis to circle the yacht showing its impressive size before ending up on the same side that they started on.
Canelo, who once wore a panda suit on a private jet flight, can be seen flexing both arms posing for the camera as the video comes to an end.
Unfortunately the boxer doesn’t invite us in for a grand tour of the inside of the vessel.

The four-weight world champ has won 53 of his 56 fights throughout his professional boxing career.
He has changed weight classes but most of his fights have been in the middleweight divisions.
Canelo became one of the world’s wealthiest athletes after signing an incredible 11-fight £277m deal with DAZN last year.
As well as the super-yacht, Canelo also has an £8m car collection, the latest acquisition being a £2.3m Bugatti Chiron and is a poster boy for rafts of advertisers.
FOUR-WEIGHT WORLD CHAMP
His first fight of the deal was with Liverpool-born Rocky Fielding which ended in a victory by KO for Alvarez in the third round.
This saw him crowned the WBA (regular) super middleweight World Champion in December 2018.
He most recently went up another weight classes to light heavyweight and beat former WBO light-heavyweight champion Sergey Kovalev, 36, on 2nd November in the 11th round at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
This meant he became a world champion in a fourth weight class.
Local media report Canelo is enjoying some time off before he announces his next opponent alongside his trainer Eddy Reynoso on January 15.
This is likely to take place in May.
