Okay, so the other day, I was watching some boxing highlights, and it got me thinking about Floyd Mayweather Sr. I mean, we all know Floyd Jr., the superstar, but what about his dad? The guy was a boxer himself and then became a trainer. So, I got curious about how old he actually is.
First, I hit up Google, just a simple search: “Floyd Mayweather Sr. age.” Right away, I got a bunch of results. It turns out the man was born on October 19, 1952. I did some quick math in my head.
- Born: October 19, 1952
- That makes him…72 years old as of today!
Feeling like a detective, I dug a little deeper. I found out he was born in Amory, Mississippi. Apparently, boxing runs in the family because his dad was a pro boxer too. Then I learned that Floyd Sr. used to fight in the welterweight division back in the 70s and 80s. Found an article mentioning that he was a trainer for his son, especially after being released from prison in the 90s. It is interesting to know he was in prison for illegal drug trafficking.
But my main question was about his age, and I got that sorted out. And found another website said that he is 72 years, 2 months, 22 days old, alive for 26,381 days. It is interesting to know that. It is just wild to think he is in his 70s now. Time really flies, huh? It is always fun to go down these little rabbit holes and learn something new. This one was definitely worth it!
