His father was a former welterweight contender, and his uncle Roger (later his trainer) was a former WBA Super Featherweight & WBC Light Welterweight champion. From the age of seven, Floyd Mayweather, Jr. trained with his uncle and father, gaining expertise in the orthodox stance.

With an 84-6 amateur record & three national Golden Gloves titles in four years, Mayweather represented America as Featherweight in the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. He stormed through the draw, only stopping when he was controversially beaten by Bulgaria’s Serafim Todorov in a bizarre & protested decision. He eventually secured bronze and started professional boxing in October 1996 with a second round knockout of Roberto Apodaca.
