Life and Education
How did Floyd Mayweather get started in boxing?

Floyd Mayweather started boxing from an early age. He is the son and nephew of former professional boxers. Therefore, a taste for martial arts was in the blood.
Mayweather accompanied the family to training and fights. His childhood was practically spent inside the academies. Although his relatives had followed a relatively consistent career in the ring, he was not without difficulties.
The fighter says he grew up in a poor neighborhood in New Jersey, to the point where his house went out of power. Also, he didn’t get along very well with his parents. His mother was a drug addict and his father was arrested.
Floyd ended the amateur record with 84 wins and six losses. He won the “Golden Gloves” tournament in three years: 1993, 1994, and 1995.
In 1996, he competed in the Atlanta Olympics and won the bronze medal in the lightweight category. His semifinal defeat to Serafim Todorov was the last of his career.
Floyd Mayweather Story

Floyd Mayweather’s first professional fight took place in October 1996, against Mexican Roberto Apodaca. The Americans won by technical knockout.
Super feather belt
After 17 straight wins, he challenged fellow countryman Genaro Hernández for the World Boxing Council (WBC) super featherweight belt. Pretty Boy won the match by referee’s technical decision after the eighth round ended.
Lightweight belt
Mayweather defended the belt on eight occasions before transferring to lightweight. In the new division, he faced José Luis Castillo for the title in one of the most balanced fights of his career. Floyd won by unanimous decision.
Superlight belt
In 2005, the boxer decided to go after his third title, this time in the super lightweight category. Floyd Mayweather challenged the champion, Arturo Gatti, in Atlantic City, United States, and confirmed the belt by the technical decision of the judge.
welterweight belt
Money faced Zab Judah in 2006
Not satisfied, Money moved up to welterweight and decided his fourth career title against Zab Judah in one of the most controversial fights in history. In the tenth round, Judah landed a low blow between Mayweather’s legs, which aroused the ire of his uncle Roger.
Roger invaded the ring, tried to attack Judah and a general brawl ensued between the two teams. The match was only resumed a few minutes later and Floyd won by unanimous decision. That was the title of the International Boxing Federation (FIB).
Floyd also won the welterweight belt from the World Boxing Council. He defeated Argentine Carlos Baldomir by a unanimous referee decision.
Lightweight belt
In 2006, Floyd Mayweather moved into the fifth and final category of his career: welterweight. To lift the belt, he would need to defeat American Oscar De La Hoya for the World Boxing Council.
The 16,000 fight tickets were sold out in just three hours. In addition, the clash generated 2.5 million pay-per-view subscriptions, the highest number in history so far. In the ring, Mayweather won via split decision.
Permanent retirement

Floyd faced McGregor in the last fight of his career
The American had already declared his retirement from the ring on two occasions. However, he returned to the sport in 2017 to hold his last fight and complete the long-awaited perfect record of 50 wins.
The duel was against Conor McGregor, one of the most successful MMA fighters in history. Despite never having participated in a professional boxing match, the Irishman accepted the challenge.
The confrontation became known as “Fight of the Century” and brought in US$ 370 million in closed TV subscriptions. Money confirmed his favoritism and knocked out his opponent in the tenth round, thus ending his career.
