"Today is a holiday in our home," Floyd Mayweather wrote on Instagram. "When it's a Mayweather's birthday, it's a holiday! Everyone follow and wish my son @zion_mayweather A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"
The party featured a performance from Young Thug and included many members of The Money Team in attendance. One of Zion's Instagram posts featured his biggest gift: a Mercedes C-class coupe, the same model of car given to Mayweather's other son, Koraun, for his 16th birthday. The luxury automobile sells for more than $42,000.
The party also featured a photo booth, a money machine, pool tables and bottle service.
