Short Bio: American professional boxer Floyd Mayweather was born on Feb. 24, 1977 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He three national Golden Gloves and a bronze medal in the 1996 Olympics. He became a professional boxer in 1996. By 2007, he was considered the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world and had 38 undefeated bouts. He retired in 2008, but returned to the ring in September 2009.
 
Floyd "Money" Mayweather is one of the greatest boxers of our time. The brash fighter has carved out a legacy in boxing, thanks to his undeniable talent in the ring and his trash-talking and out-of-the-ring antics.
While Mayweather's legacy is established, he is at risk of tarnishing it. Couple his current legal battles with what some perceive as his reluctance to fight Pacquiao, and many fans are turning on Mayweather.
 
Still, his in-ring accomplishments cannot be questioned. Mayweather's historic defeat of Oscar De La Hoya as well as his wins over Diego Corrales, Jose Luis Castillo, DeMarcus Corley, Arturo Gatti, Sharmba Mitchell, Zab Judah, Ricky Hatton, Juan Manuel Marquez and Shane Mosley have truly cemented his legendary status among fans of the sport.
