Mayweather didn\u2019t have a strong relationship with his father who spent time in prison. His mother was addicted to heroin. Mayweather oftentimes stayed with his grandmother but quickly learned to raise himself. His hardships helped turn him into <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/floyd-mayweather-truly-is-the-pay-per-view-king-with-over-1-billion\/\">one of the greatest boxers and wealthiest athletes<\/a> of all time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Floyd Mayweather the boxer<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Floyd Mayweather training compilation\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SOqbYk8phRA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/floyd-mayweather-wants-to-be-the-best-at-something-else-now\/\">Floyd Mayweather<\/a> turned out to be one of the most successful boxers in the history of the sport.

Mayweather has been the king of pay-per-views, raking in $1.7 billion during his career through 24,000,000 PPV buys.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mayweather\u2019s wealth is a direct result of his success inside the boxing ring. He made his professional boxing debut on Oct. 11, 1996, beginning a string of 50 straight boxing victories against zero losses.\u00a0 He won 27 of his bouts by knockout. He also had some quality wins against big-time opponents such as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/sugar-shane-mosley-said-he-had-to-retire-from-boxing-because-of-botched-surgery\/\">\u2018Sugar\u2019 Shane Mosley<\/a>, Oscar De La Hoya, and <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/since-when-did-manny-pacquiao-become-a-member-of-the-boston-celtics\/\">Manny Pacquaio<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mayweather captured 15 world titles during his prolific career and was named Fighter of the Decade for the 2010s by the Boxing Writers Association of America. He retired from the sport three times. His final professional fight was against MMA star Conor McGregor in August of 2017.

I would see him when it was time to go the boxing gym<\/a> or to run errands with him and because he was a hustler, things could get a little wild sometimes,&#8221; Mayweather said in an article in <em>The Guardian<\/em> back in 2012. &#8220;I had a rollercoaster ride and basically I raised myself. It was my older sister who made sure I got up every morning and went to school.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mayweather said his father would beat him for every little thing and he just wanted to get away from it all. &#8220;Every weekend I would go to another family member and I could call other relatives because [his grandmother] had a phone. I then went back to Michigan and my father would beat me for anything I did, even if I hadn't done anything. I used to pray for the day I could become an adult and get away from it and I got tired of getting beat.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mayweather said it was boxing that helped him get through his troubles. He would stare at the pictures of boxers on his wall to help him get through it all.  &#8220;I went to bed every night and just looked at pictures of all the boxers on my wall dreaming of being them,&#8221; he said.  &#8220;No matter how late I stayed up I got to that gym and there was nothing better in the world than going to the boxing gym.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mayweather's father once used him as a shield during gunfire<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Hear Why Floyd Mayweather Dedicated His Life to Boxing\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/B9IZn88zfHE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When Floyd Mayweather wasn't even 2 years old, he found himself in the middle of gunfire.
