Floyd Mayweather's best fights
Floyd Mayweather has an undefeated record of 50-0. He has put on shows for fans for nearly two decades, and has shown what hard work, dedication, perseverance, and talent can get someone.
Some of Mayweather's best fights include Miguel Cotto, Canelo Alvarez, and Oscar De La Hoya.
In 2012, Mayweather jumped up in weight to fight Miguel Cotto. The match had been expected to go Mayweather's way easily, but Cotto put up a great fight and even gave Mayweather a bloody nose. The victory was a UD for 'Money', but the back and forth display of grit lands this as an all-time great fight.
In 2012, Mayweather and Canelo Alvarez met in the ring. The fight ended in a majority decision for Mayweather. It was Alvarez's first defeat and, after the tough loss, he has gone on a tear throughout boxing and is now one of the best boxers in the world.
In his bout against Oscar De La Hoya in 2007, Mayweather's split decision win earned him the title of becoming a five-weight world champion. This fight also became the most lucrative boxing match in history, and helped Mayweather become a pay-per-view star.
