If you stack up Jericho and Mayweather’s accomplishments side by side, they’d probably be the same height. Floyd has won titles across weight classes and his title wins are in the double digits. As for Jericho, he’s won world titles, headlined WrestleMania, made an entire wrestling company relevant and, of course, beat The Rock and Steve Austin on the same night.

Did they cross paths in WWE?

In 2008, Floyd Mayweather did the unthinkable and crossed over to WWE for a marquee match at WrestleMania. His opponent was the world’s largest athlete, the Big Show. In the build up to the match, Floyd broke Show’s nose and angered the giant, but the match ended differently.

He knocked out the giant and made an enormous amount of money from the match. However, he wasn’t done with WWE in 2008. He returned a year later, but this time, he went face-to-face with a champion. When he came around again, Big Show and Jericho were the World Tag Team Champions.
