Floyd's Great 5: Mayweather 'retires' the undefeated

The distant year 2007 will undoubtedly remain in the memory of the boxing fan with the duel between Floyd Mayweather and Oscar De La Oya. On the one hand, the long-awaited fight decided the fate of the WBC welterweight world title held by Oscar De La Oya, on the other hand, it brought an answer to a much-asked question at that time - is the end of Floyd Mayweather's glorious career coming.

To the great regret of the boxing fan, the answer to the second question is in the affirmative. After the fight, the American superstar confirmed that he was stepping out of the ring. Against this background, however, Mayweather gave the crowd what they loved him for so much - a spectacle and another victory that immortalized his nickname "The Invincible".

Like every fight involving Floyd Mayweather, this one unsurprisingly generated a record $136 million in revenue. The fabulous amount comes from the impressive fee that fans have to pay to have the right to watch live paint - 55 dollars. The amount was paid by over 2.4 million households worldwide.

Although many criticized the refereeing in the match, and according to De La Oya himself the victory was definitely his, the facts are different. In his 38th match in the professional ring, Floyd Mayweather recorded his 38th success.
