The sport of boxing, over countless decades, never saw a star as big as Floyd Mayweather. The latter was destined to be a legend, and he rightly captured everything that he was meant to have. Also, he came into the limelight real quick because of his unusual boxing skills and that’s how he became a true great by capitalizing on his momentum.

Even after achieving so much in the sport, Mayweather received slight criticism on his physical stature and precisely his height. But what is his height? Is he even 5 ft tall?

Mayweather, a legend of the game for obvious reasons, stands 5’8” tall, as per BoxRec.

His height is definitely not the best, but it hasn’t made any problems for him in his decorated boxing career. ‘TBE’ in his stint faced fighters of the akin height, shorter to him, and even taller to him. But he tackled all the roadblocks in style and emerged right on top.

Mayweather had a defensive fight style and none of his opponents could break the same. Despite a substantial frame, ‘Pretty Boy’ generated enough power and stamina to keep going for full 36 mins.

In a huge chunk of his fights, Mayweather banked on his defensive game. However, in his fight against the likes of Canelo Alvarez and more, ‘TBE’ stayed on the forefront from the very 1st second, thus showing his attacking game too.

In his vast professional career span, Mayweather fought for a whopping 50 times. And in total, he secured 27 wins via T/KO.

This doesn’t indicate his best KO ratio, but he definitely shows how balanced his fight stint was and how comfortable he was in umpteen fight styles.

The 44-year-old was a genius of the game and his fight IQ is still praised by many. Mayweather left a legacy behind and even after signing off from the sport, he keeps himself active in the fight business, thus passing on the learnings to the budding generation of fighters.
