The duo fought for the WBC junior lightweight title in 2001, where Mayweather dismantled Corrales in round number 10. ‘Money’ knocked his opponent down five times in total. However, in the tenth round, following a knockdown, when the referee started his count, Corrales’ father abruptly stood up and asked to stop the contest.

The contest ended, and Mayweather showed the boxing fans his aggressive style of boxing. Nobody expected the American boxer to go this far and retire as the undefeated face of boxing.
