Floyd Mayweather’s first thought after outclassing Canelo Alvarez in their 2013 superfight was to treat himself to a McDonald’s. It’s something that went immensely viral back then. It’s something that is doing the rounds even now.

Many had the current face of boxing Canelo Alvarez, now on a four-fight Saudi GEA deal, causing an upset. The build-up to it all was intense as well. However, ‘Money’ put the sweet science where his mouth was and beat the young Mexican to a comprehensive points game. In the end, Floyd Mayweather came on top, winning over the then-23-year-old Alvarez.

In one of the most unlikely interviews filmed by FightHype, he hopped into a car en route to McDonald’s! Mayweather would place an ammended order of six sausage and egg McMuffins, eight hash browns, and three large juices! Mayweather gives in to the larger-than-life extravaganza and it shows, even in his post-fight celbratory runs.

Funnily enough, the conversation also veered to celebrities attending the event, including Lil Wayne and Justin Bieber. Reportedly, the iconic Kobe Bryant was supposed to show up for the boxing showdown but opted to watch it indoors.

Mayweather even said he texted him about it. As such, this bout was the talk of the town back then, in the most iconic ways. Fast forward to 2025, this snippet after his win over Canelo Alvarez is still going strong.

50-0 legend Floyd Mayweather is out of boxing, but boxing isn’t out of him. He had dabbled in exhibition the last few years. It started after a ROI of $275 million in fight purses vs. Conor McGregor in 2017. The audacious lead-up against the UFC superstar was something all by itself. His next first such contest was in Japan in 2018, when he beat Tenshin Nasukawa, leaving him in tears after a TKO win.

Money also infamously went the distance with Logan Paul in 2021. Next, he battled John Gotti III in June, prompting them to settle on a rematch later. It was a bout that went viral for reasons of its own, all over. Some or the other boxing happenstance from Mayweather always goes viral.

Then, there’s the very extravagant spending and engaging, like bagging Andy Warhol pieces for $4 million or gifting KJ a $20M building in NYC Diamond District. But old matchups or what happened after have also imparted to his infamy like his matchup with Canelo Alvarez or him going on a jolly drive-through right after. Here is what fans think of it:

Mayweather was always big on finishing with a bloated legacy; something that others in combat sports still wish to follow. However, it’s these little happenstance that made the boxer a peak name during his time.

Although he can deploy his own army and definitely his own volley of private chefs, the fact he went for a Big Mac drive-through interested fans. Consequently, some quipped it would make for a one heck of a commercial. The simplest flex means the biggest ones and Mayweather was full of them.
