It has been six years since Natasha Peay first embarked on her bodybuilding journey. The years of toil have now culminated in her debut at the 2024 Mr Olympia. But she has not been on this journey alone. There is another she is fortunate to have by her side — Floyd Mayweather Jr. On his IG Stories, the 50-0 legend wrote something motivating.
Peay won the 2024 Tanji Johnson Classic Pro Wellness Show, securing her spot in the 2024 Mr Olympia Wellness Division. This was Peay’s first hit after turning pro in 2020, and she is looking for more. She may have to topple the spot of Francielle Mattos, the only Wellness Olympia winner since its inception in 2021. But fret not; global boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather pours in the best wishes.
Surprisingly, these are nothing new for million-dollar man ‘Money’ who even bleeds his losses big and has engaged in much philanthropy. But, this was not the first time Mayweather Jr. had made a public show of admiration. Two years ago, ‘Money’ took to his social handle to wish Natasha Peay on her birthday.
Peay responded by pointing out their acquaintance, which dates back 14 years. Subsequently, long before her current trajectory. It’s common to see combat or performative sports entities acting as friends and benefactors to one another.
Mayweather’s old boxing rival Conor McGregor is one of those, for example. His concord with ex-IBF female bantamweight Ebanie Bridges or even other native boxers is one for the ages. Peay goes similar; she even attended when the former world champion rematched John Gotti III in August. In a recent post, even she turned in her thoughts on the support.
Natasha Peay looks back on her turbulent journey
As Mr. Olympia draws nearer, IFBB Pro Natasha Peay feels the pressure surmounting. Her incredible journey is also worth sharing as she feels the pressure of competition. Instead of giving in to the pre-flight jitters, she looks back at what had been. The 2024 QUALIFIED: MR. OLYMPIA Pay-per-view by Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals and 2-Day Amateur Olympia goes live all through October 8 – 13.
In recent posts, Peay went down memory lane, sharing her bodybuilding journey. A few of them also had snippets of her long journey with Floyd Mayweather. It’s not the only time she has mentioned him or posted active snippets.
Before he arranged with the CDMX government for his media availability and open workouts on May 16 at the Zocalo in Mexico City, Peay used to post a lot of training snaps of the boxer.
She recently shared two photos with the post, one of which was taken when she started her journey and one when she confirmed her place. She called it a journey full of “hard work, learning, and self-discovery” and detailed how she transitioned from a bikini to a wellness division.
Peay also advised others to appreciate their unique journey as she shared her takeaways from her bodybuilding journey. Mr Olympia kicked off on 11 October in Las Vegas with a preliminary round. Peay will be in the spotlight on the biggest stage of them all.
