SPORT:Days before McGregor fight, Floyd Mayweather talks business. At 3 a.m. in his Vegas strip club.

LAS VEGAS — It was past midnight on Thursday when Floyd Mayweather Jr., finished his nightly workout, but he was still hours away from going to sleep. Instead, he cooled down, changed his clothes and made his way to his nightly retreat.

It wasn’t until nearly 2:50 a.m. that Mayweather poked his head through the front door of Girl Collection, the Las Vegas gentleman’s club that he owns. In the days leading up to his highly anticipated boxing match against Conor McGregor, he’s been capping off each and every training session by coming here late at night, under the flashing lights and surrounded by booming bass with young woman in various states of undress surrounding him at all times.

The undefeated boxer plans to be here the night before his big bout and in the hours afterward, too, when a big party is planned. Mayweather said sections of the club, which typically charges a $50 cover, have already been reserved for Saturday for $10,000, $12,000 and $20,000. It’s certainly not the typical fight-week training regimen, but Mayweather has always operated on his own schedule and on his own terms. Asked about his late-night visits, he seems almost bemused.
