Boxing great Floyd “Money” Mayweather can have a perfect record in the boxing ring, but a viral clip shows he just suffered a rare “L” beyond it. The five-time world champion supposedly had someone from his camp ask budding streamer Summyah Marie (who streams under her nickname Maya) for her number, but the latter smiled and said no due to her already having a boyfriend.
The Knockout Was Courtesy Of Maya, Not Mayweather
During a livestream, a person spotted Mayweather nearby and just started buzzing in the chat. “That’s Floyd Mayweather!” someone shouted, bringing disbelief and excitement. Maya, clearly stunned, at first laughed at the exchange. “I thought they were lying. They said, is that Floyd Mayweather?”
People were egging her on to push him into the stream, but Maya confessed that she was shy: “I’m so shy… like, it’s Floyd Mayweather. I think he’d be doing that kind of stuff though.”
“Sorry, Champ, I Have A Boyfriend”
It was related by Maya that a guy in the camp of Mayweather had approached her for her number on his behalf. Rather than getting caught up in sentiment, she stood her ground. “Oh, um. I have a boyfriend, so… no, it’s alright, I’m not interested,” she replied politely.
She was asked to spell her name, she replied this way: “My name is Maya, but I have a boyfriend.” Reports stated that the name was repeated back to her by Mayweather, “Maya,” before a concluding thank you.
From Livestream to Highlight Reel
Though Maya joked during the live-stream, “I hope that gets clipped,” the internet is never a beat behind. Fans are already uploading the clip and thanking her for denying one of the world’s most famous athletes. Some called it a “power move,” others quipped that this was the first rejection ever recorded by Mayweather.
The Real Undefeated Champion Could Be Her Boyfriend
The exchange is a universal truth about culture: even mega-stars such as Floyd Mayweather aren’t always getting their way. And for Maya, the encounter can become a signature viral moment that anchors her brand as relatable as well as steadfast.
One thing is for sure: if Floyd Mayweather can’t win the heart of Maya, her boyfriend just may be the ultimate undefeated champion.
