Mayweather has offered the family of George Floyd to pay for the funeral services alongside four memorial funerals in Houston, Charlotte, Minnesota and the fourth one is not confirmed yet. 

According to Hollywood Unlocked, the 43-year-old Jr Mayweather found out the CEO of his music label company, Anzel Jenning, grew up with George Floyd in Houston. He then assumed it was the right thing in his heart to send Anzel Jennings to reach out to Floyd’s family with the proposal of paying for funeral services expenditures which the family gratefully accepted.
