Floyd Mayweather the undefeated boxing champion talks about a loss he hasn't recovered from, importance of family, relationship with NBA Young Boy, Vegas being a sports mecca, weighing in on the term GOAT, his definition of retirement and how he started from the bottom and built everything he has. "What these boxers do now is box, I'm a box office."
Through all the wins, accolades and success, the champion boxer talks about the one loss he can't overcome and in a rare and emotional moment, Floyd Mayweather opens up to Ryan, Channing and Fred on his struggles and how each day he tries to grow and be a better, stronger version of himself. Sitting with the Pivot 2 years ago when the platform just started, Floyd is back now and talking about the importance of these grown men conversations and the need for men to be able to express themselves freely and the impact that comes from these conversations.
But one main message the Champion has is, that In a world where we try to be in our own control of things, there are certain things beyond our control that are the hardest to accept and adjust to, Floyd gets into the different levels of life and how each stage shaped him.
No matter the sport, no matter the athlete, very few individuals have had a similar level of stardom and success as Floyd Mayweather... The iconic boxer may be retired, but his day-to-day lifestyle seems even more fulfilling than when he was fighting. In a candid and heartfelt conversation, the greatest boxer of all time discusses the people and moments that helped him become a legend.
Despite still keeping a full schedule, Floyd acknowledges how important it has been for him to spend time with his children, grandson KJ, as well as his relationship with rapper NBA Youngboy, the father of his grandson. Floyd talks about why he's made it a point to support those who have his back, when it comes to both his family and team, and why Mayweather continues to help set them up for success and the future.
Vegas has now experienced global sporting events like F1 and the Super Bowl but still nothing compares to the hype and electricity that city felt during a Mayweather boxing weekend.
While his 50-0 record and 16 title defenses speak for themselves inside the ring, Floyd has accumulated wealth and fame outside of boxing as well. He talks about reaching his goal of being an employer instead of an employee. Starting from the bottom and earning all he has through hard work and dedication, Floyd shares how learning from his father's ways helped shape him into the man he wanted to be. Getting into a discussion on how it's easier for people in black culture root for the illegal ways of business vs the legal success, it's always been an uphill battle to be respected for
Floyd’s closest friend throughout his career, though, was Kitchie Laurico. His longtime assistant, Floyd gets emotional when talking about her passing and the important role she played in his life. Mayweather says many people only want to see peers go so far, but as Kitchie proved, the ones who want to see you succeed should be kept around. Dealing with the loss of his uncle, the mother of his children and his best friend has been the one struggle Floyd hasn't been able to overcome as he explains why it's the people you can't ever fill a void from.
Whether it was sold out arenas, fight paydays that may never be duplicated or a constant hunger for people to see him lose, Floyd defied many odds on his rise to the top. The man at the pinnacle of the boxing world for nearly three decades is still synonymous with greatness and with no debate, the GOAT in and out of the ring, as he is The Best Ever.

Interviewer: Floyd, how do you feel about global warming?
Floyd: I made smart investments.
😂😂😂😂😂👍🏿👍🏿🔥🔥🔥
Lololololll. Yup
Global warming is one helluva fighter
😂😂😂🤣😂🤣
I almost spit my water out 😂😂😂
"I'm not a boxer, I'm a box-office" this is a gem 💎. Go Floyd!
I bet when Floyd said that simple line, you started running around in a circle talking bout ....THAT WAS DEEP!
@@markjones5757😄 and not giving Jay Z credit for the original version of the line
@@shall7277Don’t co-sign bots big dawg… he didn’t know either✌🏾
@@davonnlastique I'm not sure if he knew or not, I'm just saying the quote isn't much of a bar when you've already heard it before
@@shall7277 Not the point but 👌🏾
Floyd: they fight good i hustle great . Gave me goosebumps
Yea he buys them judges
Floyd is probably the most boring and the most coward boxer of all time. I slept watching is fight. He keeps running.
And you never use a glove, we all know 😂@@ceelee5850
@@ceelee5850yall dont know boxing & haven’t watched his fights or hate that the greatest boxer of all time is short & black 😂
Shout out to all the people that understand floyd!!!! He most definitely answered all questions, he just a man who experienced a lot✊🏾
Shoutout to you as well Bro. I'm confused by all these comments because this interview was deep and Floyd covered all the bases. I guess these folks don't like whenever someone elaborates.
"I'm not the jealous type, but I'm the to be respected type"
Real G talk!
Facts bro. I felt that. They’ll disrespect who they don’t respect.
Usher would never grab Beyoncé like that
@@whynotyou783Why wouldn't he? Is 60 year old Jay Z going to beat up the r&b singer?
@@markjones575760 year old mob boss hell nah. Like floyd preached, jay z damn near respected worldwide
@@markjones5757 beat up? You sound small minded. I bet you can beat up Joe Biden but for a fact you wouldn’t never dare put hands on him
The Saudi part didn’t make sense because they turned Floyd down and said they are only interested in putting on real fights
Our people glorify the illegal shit, and hate the legal shit… God Bless Floyd
I felt that
Super glaze 🚮
@@RichardGumede_07bro how is that glazing?
Fact’s salute to Floyd. He’s one of our greats. Imagine if he was yt! He would be so glorified!!! Just think about it! …. That’s why I can’t ever hate on him, good or bad….. look at the other races and then look at how we treat ours!
Not all of us. Mainly the people who are in the hood with a one track mind. I’m in Philly and I see it everyday smh
Floyd is a modern day guru, such an underrated teacher. So much wisdom
AMEN
THAT'S who we're supposed to look up to for wisdom? there's not too many illiterate " Gurus."
There are different forms of intelligence
Stop the cap!!!!🧢🧢🧢he is no God okay! Much people have much issues and losses nobody thinks of them dont be a idol worshiper
@donovanshepperd9209 Nobody said anything about a "God" or worship. I said he has a lot of knowledge and a good understanding on life and has a good heart. For those who don't like him, don't watch and keep it pushing. Nobody's forcing you. As if you haters were doing better in life than he
Floyd has high self esteem! His confidence level is through the roof. In his own right he’s one of the greatest of all time.
When Channing called Floyd old that was a real genuine laugh. Floyd laughed his ass off
Yea he did...we rarely see that😂
Time stamp? I’m trying to see that
@@cheezytacos 30:21
One thing about Fred Taylor, he gone pivot once he sees these questions are uncomfortable
I have never in my life seen Floyd laugh that hard and genuine 😂😂😂
Floyd opening up about loses was the most beautiful and saddest thing. Brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for asking that question.
Yep he had me peeling onions too LOL.
63Ford@ Idol worshipper! No tears to my eyes!
Stop the cap!!!!🧢🧢🧢he is no God okay! Much people have much issues and losses nobody thinks of them dont be a idol worshiper
Amazing interview guys. Loved every moment with the legend
I have great respect to the interviewers. They asked what Floyd wanted to be asked. They pushed him to the pike by showing him all the respect and popping him as a king as he imagined it. Amazing work
I’m glad to be alive in this era… thanks for having Floyd Mayweather on the show.
Floyd is probably the most boring and the most coward boxer of all time.
He played the GAME how It GO
I’d rather be in my 20s in the 90s
You can tell Floyd trying to be better grandparent than he was a parent because he got a lot of extra time to devote to his family now
Don't judge
Beats women
That's because he's retired now. He couldn't spend time when he was always on the road.
@@Gunn27Just like Dana white and Kovalev? What about Connor’s rape charge?
As HE SHOULD JMO🥴🤷🏿♀️
i fw the 3 seconds pause and "talk to me". TBE
Floyd you the man... Definitely a great example of Hard Work and Dedication
"There's respect and disrespect...
*I'm not the jealous type, I'm the one to be RESPECTED type.. that's it"* 🥶🥶🥶
When you have money people will cry before you tell a sad story. LMFAO
He's was very jealous of oscar .
@@averychilco when you have money people will also cry TO YOU with a sad story, hoping you will "help them out"...a constant line of those types will eventually change most people in Floyd's position
“I’m not the jealous type, I’m the wanna be respected type”🔥🔥🔥
Yeah but he danced with T.I. wife Tiny. Yall forgot about that?
@@Junior_1124 wasn’t his friend he was being young and disrespectful on purpose. Big difference
I got a whole new respect and love for Floyd, very emotion Driven man just like me.. he’s more down to earth than people think.. real man right here.. much respect to the greatest I know of this era ✊🏾✊🏾💯💯💯
FACT
You’ve came a long way bro. Been watching you since almost day one of you becoming a UA-camr! Keep excelling 🙌🏽
My cousin just passed. He’d eat this up. We watched all things Floyd.
Rip Ya Cousin
Rip to your cousin. Don't know you just trying to send peace and Blessings your way.
Sorry for your loss man!! My condolences 💐🙏🏾
Did y'all watch when Gucci made a mockery of our ppl while Floyd was adamantly going out his way to let us know he's still gonna rock their shit?
Sorry for your loss, they may be gone but y’all still share the same atmosphere 🙏🏿🙏🏿
One thing about Floyd is he gonna talk about what he want to talk about. Can ask this man 1 question and his response is something completely different to the question. He gonna get what’s on his mind out by any means 😂
😂😂 facts
RC- “so Floyd do you create ideas or just have people come to you?”
Floyd- “so back 30 years, I went to a club…..” lmaooooo like what
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Lol..he's so dam arrogant!!
Love this interview. We don’t get personal talk like this from Floyd much. U can tell he’s comfortable….and happy. 💪🏾
Great interview! Powerful questions about loss and loved Floyd's Response.
I lived in Vegas during most of Mayweather’s fights… it’s literally a holiday every time. And we hitting the blade because the atmosphere be lit.
Did you ever Bet 💰on Floyd??
Same here bro I was hustling at the time ( I’m grown now with a family) but when I tell you how much money I would make during Mayweather week… bro my rent was paid up for 3 months 💰 He brought the big dogs out
That’s right
I detect no lies!
No one asked or cares
I'm always here for a Floyd Mayweather interview 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

@@jamesmanning4346

Subbed just on da stregth of this interview. BANGER!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
This was the most emotional I've ever seen Floyd, from crying talking about lost loved ones to a genuine laugh out loud. He must really have alot of love for ya'll to be that comfortable.
Facts City 💯🙏🏿
That John Q ass tear lol . 😂
I love Floyd but I peep game
Stop the cap!!!!🧢🧢🧢he is no God okay! Much people have much issues and losses nobody thinks of them dont be a idol worshiper
This probably was the hardest interview to watch from the pivot!! Floyd doesn't answer the questions at all lol. Every sentence involves money lol.
So true but people love people with money
Speak into existence
Lmao he answered tho
Agree Round a bout Answers with a huge helping of arrogance
That’s all he know. He can’t read what else is gonna talk about? Lol
this interview was amazing. love floyd. I feel the same on alot of what he said, mind your own business, people trying to control you when all you want is to do you and be happy, being respectful, time and a place for everything and timing. thank you for this interview. 💯💥
Pivot & Money Mayweather interview was off the charts..Luv this Podcast ❤❤
He dodges questions like he dodges punches. Undefeated.
🥴🤭😆🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
I don't think you listen to his conversation, you heard what you wanted to hear.
Spot haten on the man
@@leamonfletcher9561and alll them likes is folks who came to hear what they wanted and not actually learn a darn thing or listen to hear the man foreal
Floyd Is The King Of Talking In Circles & Not Answering Questions…And Somehow His Interviews Are Still So Good And Entertaining…Lol
You must not be listening if you saying it’s in circles
Bruuuuhh. 😂😂😂 I almost quit listening
Erratic behavior is entertaining
Mesmerizing
Great interview , so much depth and substance from Floyd . Glad to see his mantra of hard work pays the bills still on display . Thank you guys for the great interview.
I have never really listened to him interviewed before. This interview just revealed a truly sincere guy-Floyd Mayweather-as a man with tons of wisdom. I wish I could have at least one moment to meet him. May God bless him and his family. I could relate to his pain of loss. Thanks for sharing this with us, Floyd. And I subscribed to this channel today. Thanks to you all.
he had to be taught that for the media.. before he wasn't humble..
@@jaeo8183Nice to know that too. Thanks.
Seeing my boy cry over his babymama hit different kid.....y'all Boyz love ya ladies while they here man😔
He was crying over kitchie his assistant
His assistant*
He said wife! And what happened to her?
@@pamelareese8728 he didn't say wife watch it again
@@pamelareese8728 I don’t think Floyd ever been married.
The king of talking in circles!
💯
and running in circles
@@pcelis19you’re still hurt he BEAT your fav Latino fighter 😂😂
Yet you clicked on the video to watch him lol
@@banditowashington527made a lot of money off the Mexicans 😭😭😭
Hello beautiful brothers, I simply wanted to stop by and compliment you on offering such a wonderful show. Your studio is beautiful, the conversation flowed well, and your guest was beyond incredible!!! Personally, it was a pleasure to be provided with such an intimate up close look at the masterful mind of the great Floyd M. Thanks for providing the close up. Love and Blessings!!! ❤🔥
The best interviewer in floyd...jus the game he speaks an knowledge is rare
For his assistant to stay by Floyd till the very end really shows what type of people he has in his company and around him. This was one of the most touching and insightful podcast ever.
Floyd Mayweather is a great inspiration for how you don't have to rob, steal, and scheme to make it. I always respected his keen business moves. God bless him always.
I want to be like Floyd at work.. I'm a give ALL the credit to me and remind my coworkers I hired all of them lmmfao
He robbed boxing fans for years
He gambles high and beats women . Plus he just said if his daughter was with Duffy that's her fault. No. Rape is never HER fault
The hate is real!!
Mann! Seeing Floyd now from when i met him in Oakland before he was Champ, his demeanor changed bug time. He so lively and open and seasoned now
These are the stories I love. Knowing that a young boy, had it rough, but experience, determination, and will power, made him Mr. Floyd Mayweather!!
Floyd's energy inside and outside the ring unmatched. I love it!! God Bless you my Brotha!!
Great interview!!
Legendary interview 🙏🏾🔥
I pray we all become this successful
That's not even a prayer
This was the best interview I've seen from Floyd , he has showed us young men how to evolve on and off the playing fields. Shows use too that money isn't everything nor is Status, because when you get to a level success like he has gotten all what really matters lies within . Well done @pivot , RC , Chan , OG Fred !!!
This was good. I truly enjoyed listening to these guys
Thanks for the interesting podcast with the real one Floyd Mayweather.
I LOVE that Floyd is moving in that financial energy. That those numbers feel like pennies. Watch he will be moving in bigger financial circles. Go Floyd Go. The sky can’t limit him.
Interviews exactly like he boxed, the BEST defensive champion ever, and best at defending against direct questioning. 😂 Still a fantastic interview - good job Pivot team.
Great job gentlemen! ❤ Continued blessings to you!
Actually had me in tears 😢…GREAT INTERVIEW AS ALWAYS ❤
Floyd Mayweather my favorite athlete of all time!!!!!
Floyd & Kobe
Floyd don’t answer no questions he’s asked
😂😂😂real shit
😂😂 when u that rich and has that much experience you just let them talk like a grandpa with wisdom
Bruh I’m saying I’m 11 minutes into this shit and I’m like what is bro talking about rn lmaooo
He's a boss!
I’m WEEEEAAAAK!!!
Daam this was a heartfelt interview very deep, he's right, nothing hurts like that😢😢
This interview made me root for him even more than the first one he did on the pivot podcast. Different side and a bit of a vulnerable side he showed
I love that RC checked Mayweather abt the Diddy thing and women it’s never a abused woman’s fault !
I was just about to say that RC checked him quick
RC is always trying to be Mr. politically correct like he's still on ESPN. Floyd didn't say fault he said choice. And yes it was her CHOICE to stay in that. Amazing how people get to play helpless when it's convenient.
He didn't check him that's what you called being checked fred Taylor hurried up and changed the subject before Floyd responded did you see Floyd thinking getting ready to respond
He kept it all the way 100, and I love that just because that's another Blackman doesn't mean he's above accountability.
@@jos3roth475 Of course Floyd will say that he beat the shit out of his girl in front of their children. Go read the police report and the little kids explanation of what happened. That shit will scar those kids forever. Best boxer in the world and you hit a chick smh
RIP KITCHIE. I was at the cerebration of life for her in LA at it was AMAZING. The after party celebration was LEGENDARY. I’ve always been proud of the fact that TMT, Floyd and Mayweather Promotions blessed me with one of the limited invites for the event. KITCHIE my friend, you are a HALL OF FAMER AS WELL 👊🏾💯❤️❤️
Rip kitchie she was a real 1 showed me love in the fountain blu in miami 2013 because I knew who she was TMT I KNOW FLOYD took that loss hard to rip kitchie
Stop the cap!!!!🧢🧢🧢he is no God okay! Much people have much issues and losses nobody thinks of them dont be a idol worshiper
@@donovanshepperd9209 Delete this, clearly you’re going through an episode if that’s what you got out of my comment. Seek help, have a good day.
we need a 2 hour floyd interview!!!
Love hearing when Floyd talk. He's smart outside the ring as he was inside the ring.
The one thing I got from this interview. Floyd loves himself some Floyd.
You dont love yourself?
If you don't Nobody else will
EXACTLY!
That's a miserable type comment
You have to in order to make it that far
I just want to thank y’all for this episode. I know y’all won’t see this, I know Floyd won’t see this either, but I struggle with the month of March as well.
I lost my grandmother March 11th, 2013, lost my Grandaddy March 3rd, 2001, my other grandmother March 21st, 2017, my uncle March 1st, 2017, and the one that hurt the most tbh is my closest homie March 12th, 2020, and we were born on the same day October 12th, 1994, 5 hours apart. Never got the closure, and still have a hard time accepting that we won’t see each other again. Thank y’all for this episode. Shoutout to Channing, Gator legend.
I’m sorry sending you a hug. Praying for you.
You guys are Powerful keep it up, stay blessed fellows
God bless Floyd. Wow! What an awesome interview. It had me in tears. Thanks for sharing. Subscribed
I have never seen Floyd like this. This was a great interview
This is LITERALLY the G.O.A.T. podcast with THE BEST format....like yo.... SALUTE 🫡🫡🫡
Yeah I agree is the Goat of all coward boxers. He is the most boring and most coward boxer of all time. He is too scared to get hit.
Floyd you are an inspirational person very influenchal man you can't be more an honest human being. Love this interview 👍🏼
Poignant questions and answers. Thank you for sharing this 'human' moment with your audience. Kitchie, may you rest in peace. 🙏🏾
You guys are consistent with the hits. It’s a breathe of fresh air. Appreciate it
The biggest gem he dropped is when he spoke on control everybody want control
Thank you for a mature conversation.
Dope!! Thanks Fellas and Congratulations Floyd! Greatness 🏆
I love listening to floyd mayweather every interview is different
I admire Floyd because he reminds me of everything that im not...that could make a hater out of some people but it only pushes me to be better 💪🏿
woow. . .good 4 u
🙄
This real talk
Floyd this interview gave me a different respect for you. Pivot you guys definitely make everyone feel comfortable being real.
{Excellent Presentation! Keep up the Great work!! Real talk! Keep it 💯☑️
Interviewer: So Floyd, are these investment ideas coming from your team or is this all you?
Floyd: This is how I moved to Las Vegas 😎
😂😂😂
the team works 💪🏾 all together TMT 4-life ❤️
Lol..
😂😂😂😂😂 guy is so obsessed with himself 😂😂😂. Doing well for himself though, good on him.
An easy way to understand your question is this. NO MAN IS AN ISLAND TO HIMSELF/HERSELF. This is why they tell us to become an accredited investor because opportunities are presented to you for investment.
Needed this preciate yall forreal
Why?
Love the interview
I'm so glad to see this. So much respect for you guys and Floyd Mayweather. God bless.
Damn can I like this interview 2 times. It was great. luv you as always
Floyd, always a great interview. This one was classic. Bravo! 👏🏾
Magnificent interview of The TBE OF BOXING! AND ONE OF THE GIANTS OF OUR ERA IN SPORTS AND BUSINESS! ❤❤❤!
y'all make a lot of interviews go viral this the one
Love me some Pivot, and Floyd! The first sit down was good, but this second interview was great!! Y'all can sit down with Mayweather once a month, and it will be awesome every time. Keep up the great work brothers.🥰🥰🙌🏾
BRAVO ZULU. Wow. This was a powetful interview. GOOD INTERVIEW.
the best to do it I keep seeing people saying he not answering the questions but he definitely answered everything he was asked
What was they listening to. I watched twice to see He answered the questions asked. Comprehension is a skill.
The cold shoulder at 50:00!🥶🥶🥶😂🤣
Let’s switch!🤣🤣🤣
We fasho was waiting on the All Access, salute Floyd. Favorite athlete by a long shot.
Floyd got a good rapport with these boys. Glad they brought him back and was able to connect.
Great interview & life long great content!💪🏾💯
I love when, Floyd is on😊
I felt that from Floyd that loosing close people like that smh, I lost two wife one died from a overdose and the other natural, than my grandma last month a day before I got my masters and that hurt, I cried seeing Floyd cry than seeing how yall was effected THAT SHOWS THE TYPE OF MEN YALL ALL, YALL HAVE SINCERELY SHOWN EMOTIONS FOR HIS LOST, that to me makes yall the best podcast on line, it's crazy how many gems yall all dropped and Floyd to see the views not where they should be and than this man gave game to young men about the young woman and not worry about humping, everyone should be put in a growing position that's around you, it's not for clout or to say u did it.. my grandfather before he died always said if they bring it back round to u that's a blessing but when it's that time u need God the most that's what God looks at. For me it's Jesus but any one who believes in a creator I belive wanting to see people better than you or to help them be them be better than you, this man Floyd helped people and a great businessman I ENVY YALL RELATIONSHIP WITH FLOYD AND TO GET TO BE IN PERSON AND HEAR THIS MAN BOYYYYYYY, BUT IM THANKFUL YALL ALLOWED US TO BE APART OF YALL JOURNEY.. THANK YOU YALL.

FLOYD.....ITS OK TO BE A EMPLOYEE .... BUT DONT YOU WANT TO BE A EMPLOYER...
Stop the cap!!!!🧢🧢🧢he is no God okay! Much people have much issues and losses nobody thinks of them dont be a idol worshiper
Never settle for less. There is always room
For growth💥
Mayweather just start talking about Diddy 😂 when asked about youngboy. Hes a media genious totally answered a completely different question
I don’t think people realize . How much dedication it takes to have this kind of mindset . Definitely not for the weak . Floyd is so misunderstood , this man feels deep . But comes across as no emotion
Nothing,but pure respect for this highly intelligent young ,man.He's definitely unmatched .Seems very sincere especially, the Love he has for his,family and friends ❤️
