On May 2nd 2015, what was called the Fight of the Century was set to take place. The whole world was eager to watch the battle between Pacman and Mayweather. They were both boxing champions and were to finally show the world who was the better fighter among them both. Unsurprisingly, Floyd was the winning man in this battle and he remains undefeated even after about 50 fights.
Date of Birth: February 24, 1977
Zodiac Sign: Pisces
Little Floyd at the age of 7 was fitted for his first pair of boxing gloves. “Pretty Boy” Floyd was soon known in the neighbourhood as a gym staple. He was unarguably made for the rings as he won a number of awards even before the start of a professional career. Mayweather Jr. was raised in a highly dysfunctional family but had succeeded in making a name for himself. Family wise, he never got married but is a father to four kids from two women. You’ll be interested in reading all we found out about his parents, siblings, relationships and kids. Read on to find out…
Floyd Mayweather Sr. (father)
Date of Birth: October 19, 1952
Zodiac Sign: Libra
The Mayweather family is a complicated one however with his father having a violent temper and drifting in and out of drugs. In 1978, Floyd Sr. was shot while holding up his celebrity son as a “gun shield”; years later he ran prison term for cocaine trafficking. For five years, Big Floyd was separated from his son only to return and become his amateur son’s trainer. The welterweight Mayweather is credited for teaching his son the defensive skills that have made him a champion today.
Big Floyd is a boxer who eventually became a trainer and because of him, his son developed a big interest in the sports. Mayweather Sr. tells how he made his famous son get involved in throwing punches even before he started walking or talking. This is quite an impressive move as a father but Papa Floyd can take no glory for who his son has become today. His father would be happy if his other siblings would be as successful as the undefeated champion just that they are not ready to put in half as much work as it takes.
Deborah Sinclair (mother)
She is the mother of the pound for pound boxing king. Like her husband, she also had her own share of substance abuse leaving their family all the more wild. They never had Christmas but Deborah who was a crack addict always tried to steal presents for her son. Money May now calls his mum his wife and is very committed to looking after her. Because he has a mother whom he loves so much, Mayweather sees no reason to get married. He certainly does not need another woman in his life.
Floyd Mayweather siblings
Justin Mayweather Jones (half-brother)
Date of Birth: April 21, 1987
Zodiac Sign: Taurus
Since he was a child, he was drawn to boxing. Mike Tyson was his ultimate god in the sports and he had no idea who his birth father was. People always told him he looked like a Mayweather and he finally decided to find out the truth with a DNA analysis. The test was positive and that was how a 16 year old boxing amateur was reunited with his birth family. Since the discovery, Big Floyd has taken over the training of his son. Who knows if he would be another Mayweather champion?
Mayweather also has three sisters; Fannie Orr, Deltricia Tawanna Howard and Fatimah Mayweather. All three girls live a private life and there’s not much to know about them. They share a close bond with their famous brother however and this adds to the reason why he chooses to remain unmarried; so many women in his life already.

As Floyd was switching back and forth from break ups to make ups with Harris, he was also shacking up with Melissia. They have a daughter together but as expected never made t down the aisle.
