    Floyd Mayweather's Background

    I was amazed of what he said in the last 24/7 episodes, he's portraying himself like a thug, a gangster from the ******.. with no parents or no love.

    I found an interesting article where Jeff Mayweather explained something.

    For me, it was a choice to leave. I always try to put my best foot forward and I’m all about family, and up until his like 10th fight, I never took a dime from Floyd Jr. I’m a modest person, I don’t need the fame. In my heart, I know what I have done. That's good enough for me. One day, when we were doing a radio show in Vegas, he shows up with James Prince. Myself or Roger didn’t know anything about this guy, but Floyd wanted him there. Floyd was the one whom put him on the fight scene, that’s how he got Winky Wright and Diego Corrales, Mark "Too Sharp” Johnson and also former IBF Jr Lightweight Champion, Steve "Two Pound" Forbes. I think he just took him to Houston and showed him the big houses, the nice cars and many other things as well. He also promised Floyd that he can establish his own rap label. Soon after, Floyd would act like he wanted to be a thug or something, he didn’t have any real life struggles or lived in the projects or did anything to give him any street credibility He grew up with a loving family in which we all did our part to help him reach his dreams. He never even worked a job growing up.

    Interesting comments from Jeff Mayweather in this article.

    To Floyd.. he needs to grow up and stop playing. He always said he gives credit to those who earned it, well.. it looks like his family has earned some credit, and I think his dad, his uncle and Jeff have been there for him all his life, he should start showing some respect.

              All the things I hear in 24/7 is lies too I know it.

              He lives in Michgan and his middle-class family his father was a contender in the 70s and they used to train with each other.

              If you want to know the real floyd Mayweather jr watch " Soul of Champion" That is the real Floyd Jr.

              He really loved his father to when he was young he used to idolize him and the jogged together and trained together
