Watch: When Floyd Mayweather Stopped A Workout To Help Young Boxer

Floyd Mayweather turns 41 today and will obviously be spending his day swimming in dollar bills. We've decided to mark his special day by harking back to the time he had time for a young boxer despite being in the middle of an intense workout.

'Money was preparing his 50th and final fight, a mega-bout against Conor McGregor in Las Vegas, but still had time to pause his training and help youngster in the gym with some advice.

After telling the youngster and his coach that the boxer was standing too upright, the former five weight world champion got back to his own training.

He's far from a perfect person but his act to the young fighter in the above video was brilliant. He would have no doubt been in his element receiving some words of wisdom from the greatest fighter of our generation.

Fans on Twitter have been paying tribute to the 50-0 fighter on his birthday:

Happy birthday, Floyd.
