Okay, so, I was kinda curious about the guys always surrounding Floyd Mayweather – you know, his bodyguards. I mean, the guy’s a boxing legend, gotta have some serious protection, right? So I decided to dig in and see what these bodyguards are all about.
First, I just started with some basic searching online. Typed in “Floyd Mayweather bodyguards” and boom, a bunch of stuff popped up. Found out that he’s got this whole crew, and some of the dudes are pretty well-known, like this Alfonso Redic and Adam Plant. Seems like they’ve been with Floyd for a while.
Then, I stumbled upon some news articles and interviews. I remember one article talking about an incident in a New York City studio. Apparently, Floyd’s security team got into a scuffle and ended up smashing a camera worth three grand! Crazy, right? It shows these guys don’t mess around.
I also found this other article, “Behind the Great Wall: Floyd Mayweather’s bodyguards speak out.” It was from, like, a Las Vegas news site. These bodyguards were talking about what it’s like to protect Floyd, clearing paths through huge crowds and all that. They mentioned they’d been doing it for 15 years! That’s some serious dedication.
After that, I read about this guy named Greg La Rosa. Apparently, he’s been one of Floyd’s main bodyguards for about eight years. He’s also done some interviews with the media, sharing stories about the job. I found one of those interview with Heavy website, I can’t remember the full name. Turns out, Greg got shot once during a drive-by shooting aimed at Floyd! He took a bullet for the champ. That’s loyalty right there.

Another time, I saw this article about Floyd hanging out at a place called Kiki on the River in Miami. He was there with three women and, get this, five bodyguards! They were there for hours. It just shows how much security he rolls with, even when he’s just chilling.
Oh, and I can’t forget about this video I found. It was Floyd’s bodyguards talking about that near-fight with Conor McGregor’s team during the world tour. They were also talking about what it’s like to be around Floyd all the time. It was a pretty interesting look into their world.
And the last thing, I saw this article where Floyd was telling his bodyguards that he’s totally retired and won’t be fighting Conor McGregor again. So, I guess that’s that. But yeah, it was a wild ride learning about Floyd Mayweather’s bodyguards. These guys are no joke, and they’ve got some stories to tell!
So, yeah, that’s my little adventure into the world of Floyd Mayweather’s bodyguards. It was more interesting than I expected, to be honest. These guys are a whole different breed, living a crazy life to protect one of the biggest names in boxing.
