(Photo by Zac Goodwin/PA Images via Getty Images) He secured 15 major world titles in his long and illustrious career. Even though he has retired from professional boxing, Mayweather continues to dazzle fans with his impeccable boxing skills in exhibition fights. Apart from that, Mayweather, using his shrewd business acumen, continues to make investments in a variety of profitable ventures as he continues to be the &#8220;richest boxer in the world&#8221;. Floyd Mayweather&#8217;s early life Born Floyd Joy Sinclair, records state Floyd Mayweather Jr.&#8217;s date of birth as February 24, 1977.Â  He was born to Floyd Mayweather Senior andÂ  Deborah Sinclair. Floyd&#8217;s mother, Deborah Sinclair, is of Jamaican ancestry. Not much information is available about her details, such as her date of birth, life, etc. But, by and large, she keeps herself away from the limelight that hogs her world-famous son constantly. On the other end, Mayweather Jr. shared a difficult relationship with his father. Senior was involved in training Junior during his budding years. But as a professional, their relations went through on-off phases. Floyd&#8217;s place of birth is Grand Rapids, Michigan. &#8216;Money&#8217; has one half-brother Justin Mayweather Jones, and three sisters Fannie Orr, Deltricia Tawanna Howard, and Fatimah Mayweather.Â  For his schooling, Floyd went to Ottawa Hills High School. But it seems that he didn&#8217;t complete his education, dropping out while in high school. Hailing from a family of boxers, he started learning the ropes of the &#8216;Sweet Science&#8217; at the age of seven, and the rest is history! Roger Mayweather, Floyd&#8217;s uncle, left a lasting impression on the boxing champion. A former world champion, he took up the responsibility of training his nephew in 2000 and remained his trainer till 2012. Sadly &#8216;Black Mamba&#8217; passed away in 2020.Â  Floyd Mayweather&#8217;s wife and children Floyd Mayweather Jr. has four kids: Koraun, Zion, Jirah, and Iyanna.

The pair broke up in 2000, a few months after Iyanna&#8217;s birth. It is very difficult to ascertain who he is currently dating.

Floyd Mayweather&#8217;s career timeline Coming from an acclaimed boxing family, it was natural for young Floyd Mayweather Jr. to pick the gloves. The prodigious boxer won the Golden Gloves in 1993, 1994, and 1996. Making it to the Olympics, Mayweather Jr. controversially lost the semi-finals to Serafim Todorov. As a result, he had to settle for a bronze medal. Per records, his amateur wins stood at eighty-four against eight defeats. By the year-end 1996, Mayweather Jr. embarked on his professional career with his first fight against Roberto Apodaca on October 11. He was three months short of his twentieth birthday. Over the next two years, Floyd Mayweather won nineteen fights. In between, he won his first world title on October 3 against Genaro Hernandez. Mayweather would successfully defend his WBC super featherweight title for the next three years. Then, on April 20, 2002, Mayweather Jr. fought his first bout in the lightweight division. He won the WBA and The Ring titles with a win over Jose Luis Castillo. The first big name that crossed his path was Arturo Gatti. The duo fought on June 25, 2005, for the WBC super lightweight title. &#8216;Money&#8217; won as the latter retired by the sixth round of the contest. Making his second divisional move, &#8216;TBE&#8217; fought and defeated Zab Judah unanimously on April 8, 2006, winning the IBF and IBO welterweight titles. Towards the end of the year, he defeated Carlos Baldomir and added the WBC, IBA, and The Ring welterweight belts to his kitty. On May 7, 2007, he faced the next big name. Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather Jr. fought for the WBC light middleweight title. The latter won via split decision. His next severe test awaited him six months later. England&#8217;s Ricky Hatton and Mayweather Jr. fought at MGM Grand on December 8. A tenth-round stoppage ensured a technical victory for the American while defending the welterweight titles. Three years later, Mayweather outclassed Shane Mosley at MGM Grand. The following year, he knocked out Victor Ortiz to win the WBC welterweight title. Miguel Cotto was the next to fall in line on May 5, 2012. The win fetched Mayweather Jr. the WBA super light middleweight title. Then, on September 14, 2013, he faced a much younger Canelo Alvarez at MGM Grand. &#8216;Money&#8217; won by a majority decision and added the WBC and The Ring Light Middleweight titles. LAS VEGAS, NV &#8211; SEPTEMBER 14: (L-R) Floyd Mayweather Jr. throws a right to Canelo Alvarez during their WBC/WBA 154-pound title fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on September 14, 2013 in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Photo by Al Bello/Getty Images) The following two years were momentous for Floyd Mayweather Jr. In 2014, he fended off Carlos Maidana&#8217;s challenges twice. During their first bout on May 3, Mayweather won by a split decision. Four months later, the judges were unanimous in the decision to award a win to the American. Then, onÂ May 2, 2015, &#8216;TBE&#8217; faced his biggest challenge. He met the mighty Manny Pacquiao at MGM Grand. The much-hyped fight proved to be drab. Nevertheless, the American won unanimously and got himself the WBO welterweight title besides retaining the existing ones. He then claimed his forty-ninth professional win when he earned a unanimous decision over Andre Berto. Soon afterward, Mayweather Jr. announced his retirement from the sport. Two years later, he made a comeback againstÂ the UFC sensation and mixed martial arts champion Conor McGregor at Nevada&#8217;s T-Mobile Arena on August 26, 2017. Mayweather Jr. won the fight on technical grounds by the tenth round. It was the last professional fight for Floyd Mayweather Jr. His record is now perfect fifty-nil. Floyd Mayweather Juniorâ€™s partnership and endorsements Hublot Ahead of Floyd Mayweather&#8217;s fight against Conor McGregor in 2017, the Swiss watchmaking company signed a deal with the boxing legend. Mayweather was seen brandishing a $1.1 million diamond-encrustedÂ Hublot Big Bang watch in the pre-match press conference in London ahead of his fight against McGregor. His association with the company dates back to the Pacquiao fight when the former five-division world champion&#8217;s trunks carried the logo of the watch company. The value of the deal remains undisclosed to this day. Mayweather termed the deal with Hublot &#8220;timeless&#8221;.Â  Burger King The American fast-food company signed a deal with Mayweather in 2015. The deal was worth 1 million dollars in 2015.
