Floyd Mayweather
✓ Source-basedfallingAmerican boxer
He retired 50-0, which means he never lost a professional fight - not once in two decades. That record, plus his ability to turn boxing matches into pay-per-view gold, made him both the most technically untouchable fighter of his generation and one of the highest-paid athletes on earth.

About this person
Born Floyd Joy Sinclair in 1977, he came up through the amateur system with three Golden Gloves titles and a bronze medal at the 1996 Olympics. He turned pro and began stacking world championships across five weight classes, from super featherweight to light middleweight, building a reputation as the most defensively precise boxer in the sport - CompuBox still ranks him the most accurate puncher in recorded history. He matched Joe Louis with 26 straight wins in world title fights, claimed 15 major belts, and beat 24 former or current world champions along the way. In 2006 he left Top Rank and founded Mayweather Promotions, taking control of his own business and transforming his fights into cultural events that generated roughly 24 million pay-per-view buys and $1.67 billion in revenue. He retired undefeated in August 2017, then moved into exhibition boxing. The Boxing Writers Association of America named him Fighter of the Decade for the 2010s; The Ring later called him the greatest pound-for-pound boxer of the 21st century.
