Over the decades, the world of boxing has seen some truly special fighters.

We can’t name them all because we’ll be here all day, but a few names that instantly spring to mind are names such as Joe Frazer, George Foreman, Frank Bruno, Nigel Benn, ‘Iron’ Mike Tyson, Chris Eubank, the Klitschko brothers, Ricky Hatton, Manny Pacquiao, and of course, the late Muhammad Ali.

Before any boxing enthusiasts reading this blow their tops, we have indeed missed a very special name off of the list.

This is deliberate because it is this fighter that we will be looking at in today’s piece of work in which we list several prominent Floyd Mayweather quotes.

Yes, we’re looking at the life and times of who many believe to be the greatest pound for pound fighter to ever live – Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather.

Who Is Floyd Mayweather?

Before we look at these Floyd Mayweather quotes, we first need to look at the fighter behind these quotes. Floyd Mayweather Jnr is a retired professional boxer, who is, without question, one of the best pound-for-pound champions to ever lace up the gloves.

He has won three Golden Gloves titles, an Olympic bronze medal, and so many different boxing titles and championships since turning pro in 1996 that it would take forever just to list each one.

He holds a professional record of 50 wins, 0 losses, and 0 draws. Of these 50 wins, 27 have come by way of a knockout.

Early Life

Born Floyd Joy Sinclair on the 24^th of Feb, 1977, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, it was clear from birth that Floyd was destined to box.

His father, Floyd Snr, fought as a Welterweight contender, whereas his uncle Jeff Mayweather was a former IBO super featherweight champ, and his other uncle, Roger Mayweather, was a former WBA super featherweight champ and WBC super lightweight champ.

His father introduced him to boxing not long after he was able to walk, and he was surrounded by the sport.

By 7 he had his first pair of boxing gloves fitted and he would constantly be found at his local boxing gym surrounded by his family.

Floyd would soon take on the last name of his father, officially becoming Floyd Mayweather Jnr.

His life was troubled as his father was frequently in trouble with the law and drugs plagued his household.

Boxing helped keep him on the straight and narrow and soon he would fight as an amateur.

Boxing Career

Floyd won the Golden Gloves title three times in 1993, 94, and 96.

At the 96 Olympics in Atlanta, Mayweather lost a controversial fight and settled for a bronze.

Many believe he should have been awarded the decision.

He turned pro on the 11^th of October, 1996, and began racking up wins at an astonishing rate.

In 2017, Mayweather fought UFC MMA fighter Conor McGregor in one of the world’s largest exhibition fights in the MGM Grand Las Vegas.

Mayweather won the bout and retired shortly after with a record of 50 – 0.
