Retired boxing champion Floyd Mayweather will bear the costs of the funeral of George Floyd, the black American who died of suffocation last week when a white policeman pressed his knee to his neck to death.
This came on the authority of Mayweather Communications CEO, Leonard Allerby, on Monday for the ISBN network.
Police officer Derek Chauven was charged with manslaughter, after he and his colleagues arrested Floyd, 46, in Minneapolis, and pressed his knee to his neck for about nine minutes, without heeding his hunches - shackled and grounded - that he could not breathe.
Alirbi confirmed that the Floyd family accepted the offer of boxing legend to pay for the funeral, saying that Mayweather had done similar things in the last twenty years, considering that the former world champion in five categories and retired in 2017 with an ideal balance of fifty people without any defeat, he did not want to talk About this.
The Floyd family announced on Monday that it will be buried on Tuesday, June 9 in Houston.
