Floyd Mayweather left the professional side of boxing in 2017. However, his love for the sport prevailed over everything. As a result, he began taking exhibition fights and even honed some noteworthy boxing talents under his Mayweather Promotions banner.
That said, Gervonta Davis and Rolly Romero are the top names under Mayweather Promotions. The duo will collide on December 5 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. With under two months left for their scheduled fight, the pair recently took part in a pre-fight press meet. Here, ‘Pretty Boy’ also appeared on the big stage to shed some light on his iconic journey.
He said, “When I first got with Steven and I told him that I will make Showtime, the A-side. Even though this is a Showtime PPV, I was able to change the sport of boxing and so I’m happy that I was able to get involved with the sport and change it and take it to the next level.”

Throughout his career span, Mayweather remained a pioneer about fighters getting the maximum pay. He also split with his promoter, Bob Arum, in 2006, to promote himself and make the biggest of paychecks.
