Floyd Mayweather defeats Andre Berto and retires from boxing

Boxing champion Floyd Mayweather won the fight against Andre Berto on Saturday at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, keeping hold of his WBC & WBA welterweight titles.

MAYWEATHER RETIRING: “I DID IT ALL”

Mayweather, who is the highest paid sportsman also announced that he was quitting the sport as there was nothing else to accomplish.

“I’ve been in this sport 19 years, been a world champion 18 years, broke all the records,” he said, moments after collapsing to his knees in the middle of the ring.

In the fight against Andre, Mayweather equalled Rocky Marciano’s perfect 49:0 record.

Well, if at all he retires as said this time round, considering that he’s mentioned the same before, the 38 year old will go down undefeated and on top of boxing.
