The undefeated champion, recognized for his philanthropic efforts, shared his arrival at Ben Gurion Airport through a heartfelt Instagram post, expressing gratitude for the warm welcome he received.

He wrote, “There’s nothing like returning to such warmth and hospitality! A heartfelt thank you to the wonderful team at Ben Gurion Airport for the warm welcome back… It feels like home away from home! Actions speak louder than words, and I’m here to support in every way I can. Here’s to another great journey together.”

Since the outbreak of conflict last year, Mayweather has actively supported Israel, using his private plane to deliver essential medical supplies to the country.

During his previous visit in March, he met with soldiers, rescue workers, and civilians, showing solidarity with those affected by the ongoing situation.

His latest trip included a visit to an Israel Defense Forces base, where he hosted a barbecue for military personnel, and to the headquarters of United Hatzalah, Israel's largest volunteer emergency medical service.

In Jerusalem, Mayweather received the Champion for Israel award at the Dan Family Aish World Center, recognizing his advocacy against antisemitism and hate. This honour is reserved for those who actively oppose such issues and support Israel, underscoring Mayweather’s commitment to making a positive impact in the region.

Last week, it was announced that he donated $100,000 to United Hatzalah to help purchase 100 bulletproof vests, enhancing the safety of their volunteers amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.
