Floyd Mayweather was undefeated in his boxing career, but he faced one huge loss outside the ring that he couldn’t overcome.

It has been less than a year since Floyd lost his personal assistant, Marikit ‘Kitchie’ Laurico, but the pain still troubles him, as he shared in a tear-jerking personal interview with The Pivot Podcast.

When asked how the losses of people he loved affected him, the 46-year-old initially said “we don’t wanna talk about that” before gathering himself and saying “we’re gonna get through this.”

A lonely tear rolled down Floyd’s left cheek as he began to remember his best friend Kitchie, who knew him better than anyone else. She passed away unexpectedly in March 2023.

“People really wouldn’t understand that people like your drivers and your assistants are your best friend,” he said to Pivot hosts Ryan Clark and Channing Crowder, who were also moved to tears by his vulnerability.

“Kitchie was the only person in life that I could talk about anything to. That knew my deepest secrets.”

Mayweather’s reflections revealed the side of fame that is not understood by many people who don’t live it. It is hard to trust people, even family members and partners. The assistant that he spent every day with was a sanctuary for the 15-time world champ.

Fans react to seeing new side of Floyd Mayweather

The emotional interview came as a shock to many fans, who had never seen that side of Mayweather, who is more widely known for his cocky attitude and flashy displays of wealth.

“First time seeing seeing Floyd this vulnerable,” said a user on Twitter/X.

“Need more raw content like this instead of everyone trying to be a fake gangsta,” another fan commented under the interview.
