When Dave Chapelle Hailed Floyd Mayweather for Having ‘The Greatest Run in Boxing’
A gritty aggressor and fine defender, Floyd Mayweather, is undoubtedly one of the greatest boxers of all time. The former five-weight division champ has earned almost every accolade in professional boxing. Although he has called himself the greatest boxer of all times, it is a debatable subject. But in the words of Dave Chappelle, ‘The Pretty Boy’ of boxing has had ‘The Greatest Run in Boxing.’
Renowned comedian Dave Chappelle recently had a brief interaction with TMZ Sports. After clarifying that he was a boxing fan, the 48-year-old comedian praised the legacy of ‘The Best Ever‘.
Chappelle said, “I think he (Floyd) had a great record and the greatest run in the history of boxing, I don’t know, whatever makes him happy, but I think he did his thing.”
A huge boxing fan and staunch supporter of ‘Money’ Mayweather, Chappelle had attended several Mayweather fights. He also had his unbiased opinion on the biggest blockbuster between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao.

According to the comedian, those guys were excellent, and he really enjoyed it.
The upcoming exhibition bout of Floyd Mayweather
The 45-year-old legendary boxing figure is not yet done with boxing.

His last fight was an exhibition bout with social media star Logan Paul.
