Floyd Mayweather recently appeared on the premiere of ‘Hollywood Unlocked with Jason Lee: Uncensored’ where he remembered his ex-girlfriend, Josie Harris, who passed away in March 2020. Harris, who had three children with Floyd Mayweather was found dead in a car parked outside her home in Valencia. Later, it was revealed that 40-year-old died due to an ‘accidental drug overdose’.

Floyd Mayweather and Josie Harris had a tumultuous relationship when they dated between 1995 and 2010. Things turned sour between the pair when Harris accused Floyd Mayweather of domestic violence, for which the 50-0 fighter went to jail in 2010. Despite this, the two raised their kids together and Floyd Mayweather has since paid his respects to Harris by claiming that he would give up everything to bring her back.
