Floyd Mayweather was unbeaten in the boxing ring throughout his legendary 5-0-0 career.
‘The Best Ever’ was almost as good at trash-talking as he was fighting, but a few opponents got the better of him on the mic.
Conor McGregor, UFC’s superstar, terrorized him in four cities before their fight.
Floyd Mayweather repaid his debt with a 15-punch combo to score a TKO victory in the 10th round.
That’s the same round ‘Money’ stopped Ricky Hatton when they fought in Las Vegas on December 8, 2007.

The Roast of Floyd Mayweather
Floyd Mayweather bravely traveled to Ricky Hatton’s backyard to promote their 39-0 vs 43-0 fight.
The American didn’t know what to do when his opponent began cracking jokes for his hometown crowd.
“I’ve missed my son, my six-year-old son, but I probably haven’t missed him quite as much as you would think because I’ve had the misfortune to spend the full week with another f—ing six-year-old,” Hatton said, as a room of Englishmen cheered and laughed.
“Floyd’s gonna run away all night – he says he isn’t, but he is – he’s gonna run away all night.
“I know I’m gonna have to be fast on my feet to catch him.
“So I’ve got two wonderful sparring partners coming in – Forrest Gump and Carl Lewis.”
Mayweather tried to fight back with his words, and when that didn’t work, he simply chuckled along.
He won the fight by defeating Hatton before 30,000 Brits, who had traveled from across the pond to watch the fight.
