Roger Mayweather

Roger Mayweather too often lives in the shadow of his nephew Floyd, and I think that is a real injustice. A genuine two-division world champion out of Grand Rapids, Michigan, he held WBA, Ring, and WBC titles in his own right. After hanging up the gloves he became the trainer who shaped Floyd into a generational star, making him a cornerstone of a family that speaks through its fists. At only 171 cm, he conquered the world on skill rather than size. He passed in 2020, but to me the demanding, devoted cornerman remains the true foundation of the Mayweather dynasty.
