Boxing star Floyd “Money” Mayweather to pay for George Floyd’s funeral

Chris's Corner

Boxing star Floyd “Money” Mayweather will pay for George Floyd’s funeral, his representative announced Monday.


Floyd, an African-American male died last week in Minneapolis after a police officer Derek Chauvin, a white male knelt on him for over eight minutes during a traffic stop.


Chauvin was fired on Tuesday and charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter Friday. Floyd’s death sparked country-wide protests/riots demanding justice and equality to the voiceless, particularly the African-American community as a whole.


According to ESPN, the Floyd family accepted Mayweathers’ generous offer and will finalize funeral/burial details here in the coming weeks.


The former five-division world champion last paid for a funeral in 2011 covering expenses for Genaro Hernandez, who died of colon cancer.
