Floyd Mayweather’s top 10 most infamous moments

Guess he's not undefeated at everything.

9. Floyd doesn't know what the word "magnitude" means

Magnitude- ˈmaɡnəˌt(y)o͞od (n.) the great size or extent of something.

Apparently, this is news to Mayweather, who appeared more flummoxed by a reporter's use of the word in an interview after his superfight with Pacquiao than by anything Pacquiao threw at him in the ring that night. It was something truly astounding to watch the 38-year-old fighter labor to first comprehend the word and then to enunciate it.

And Floyd's look of pure bewilderment just about said it all.

8. Floyd on Ronda Rousey: "I don't know who he is"

These days, UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey is probably the biggest female sports star in the world. But she used to come from very humble beginnings, beginnings so humble that Mayweather used to not know who she was or even what gender she was.

Not to fear, however, as with both her dismembering of opponents in the Octagon and her numerous zingers of Floyd in the media, she has made for dang sure that Mayweather knows who she is now. And she has provided us one of the all-time great (albeit unexpected) cross-combat sports rivalries in the process.

7. Floyd's Christmas card to Manny Pacquiao

With 6.4 million followers on Twitter and an estimated net worth of $400 million, you'd think that Mayweather would be above throwing petty shade at rivals on social media. Yeah, that's definitely not the case as Floyd proved in late 2013 to be his way of saying Happy Holidays. Back when he and Pacquiao were still trading jabs in the media without actually meeting in the ring, Mayweather addressed the following "Christmas card" to his Filipino rival and mailed it through the Twitterverse.

One true class act.

6. Floyd makes it rain, literally

I have no idea if this was a commercial, a promotional video, or if Mayweather just spontaneously decided to put on a cheap suit, head down to his training facility, press the record button, and start tossing Ben Franklins around everywhere. Nevertheless, it was magnificent, and it's probably the only Floyd Mayweather-related thing that can elicit so much as a light grin from me. He lives up to his nickname after all.

Also, I may or may not have attempted to recreate the above scene after a friendly payday from a local gaming casino recently.

5. Money Mayweather, not Reading Rainbow

To quote the legendary President Arnold Schwarzenegger in "The Simpsons Movie," “I was elected to lead, not to read.” Mayweather has often taken heat for his perceived inability to read at an elementary level, and he has done himself no favors towards rebuking that notion. Who could forget the time that he struggled to read a radio promo liner like a first-grader still groggy after naptime?

Much like Charlie Kelly in "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia," Floyd's illiteracy has screwed himself over once again.

4. Floyd tiptoes around domestic violence questions in an interview with Rachel Nichols

Mayweather is a serial woman beater who has had multiple domestic violence convictions and has even done hard time in prison for it. These are the facts. But when ESPN reporter Rachel Nichols confronted him with these facts, Floyd tried to deftly tiptoe around the question much like the way he ducks and slips inside of the ring. He somehow tried to dispute the veracity of the hard evidence against him and even pulled the "Only God can judge me" defense.

Floyd Mayweather Jr: a master at avoiding punches and avoiding accountability.

3. Floyd blocks Rachel Nichols and Michelle Beadle from obtaining credentials to fight with Pacquiao

As if his aforementioned tightrope walk around the hard-hitting issues regarding his history of domestic abuse wasn't enough, Mayweather took manipulating the media to a whole new level before his fight last May with Manny Pacquiao by blocking Nichols and Michelle Beadle from obtaining credentials to the bout. Yeah, trying to silence two consummate professional reporters for speaking the truth about his abusive past is just about as low as it gets. But 48-0, right?

2. Putting honey in Floyd Mayweather’s coffee: One of the seven deadly sins

What's the best way to divert attention away from an up-and-coming young fighter in Canelo Alvarez whom you're about to meet in the ring in a few short days? Why, publicly humiliating a member of your entourage in front of a slew of reporters for not preparing your drink the way you like it, of course! Disrespect the hallowed brew of the Almighty Mayweather with the vile, accursed presence of honey?! You'll burn for this!

(Beware of the bad language from Mayweather in this video)

Not since Ancient Greece have I ever seen anyone get this worked up over nectar. Money Mayweather, ladies and gentlemen!

1. The “I wish I were 50 years younger, I’d kick your a**” interview with Larry Merchant

I would really like to forget that Mayweather's fight with Victor Ortiz ever happened. It was a deplorable showing by the two fighters with dirty tactics on both sides, punctuated by Mayweather's 1-2 sucker punch to bring the curtain down on the garbage-fest. But the one positive to stem out of it was Mayweather's unforgettable post-fight interview with Larry Merchant where the undefeated fighter cursed out Merchant, claiming he didn't know squat about boxing, only for Merchant to fire back with a one-liner for the ages.

(again, beware of the foul language from Mayweather)

Oh, and the #MerchantFace was a classic as well.

What I would give for a chiseled, dark-haired, 30-year-old Merchant to be the last man standing between Floyd and 50-0. At least it would be a better matchup than this fight with Andre Berto.

Happy trails, Floyd. We will miss your constant tomfoolery in the media, but in true Mayweather fashion, you'll probably still find a way to keep yourself relevant long after you retire.
