“Roger was a great champion and one of the best trainers in boxing. Unfortunately, his health was failing him for several years and now he can finally rest in peace.”
Roger was a two-weight world champion and fought 72 times during his 17-year career.
Mayweather got a total of a professional record of 59 victories, 25 of those wins were through knockout, and also had 13 losses in a career that started earlier and improved in 1981 through 1999 before he moved on as a full-time trainer to his nephew, Floyd Mayweather.

Onyxnewsng reported that Jossie Harris, mother of three kids to ex professional boxer, Floyd Mayweather was found dead at her residence in Los Angeles.

The couple who had spent 10 years together eventually went separate ways in 2010 over uncountable allegations of domestic violence.
