'''Roger Mayweather''' was a world champion in two weight divisions. He was known for having good boxing skills, long arms and a good right hand. However, he was widely considered by most boxing observers as having a bad chin.

	He ~~briefly stylized himself as~~ the ~~"Mexican Assassin", after a string of victories, most~~ by ~~knockout, over a series of world class Mexican fighters~~ in ~~Los Angeles between 1986 and 1989.

Mayweather's first world title was the [[WBA]] super featherweight championship, which held from 1983 to 1984. He won the title from [[Samuel Serrano]] by an 8th-round TKO and lost it in his third defense to [[Rocky Lockridge]] by a 1st-round KO.

Mayweather briefly stylized himself as the "Mexican Assassin" after a string of victories, most by knockout, over a series of world-class Mexican fighters in Los Angeles between 1986 and 1989.

			Mayweather was making the fifth defense of the [[WBC]] super lightweight championship, which he won with an 8th-round TKO of Mexican [[Rene Arredondo]] in 1987. Chavez won the title when Mayweather retired on his stool after the 10th round.

			Mayweather would later capture several lightly regarded titles: the [[IBO]] light welterweight and welterweight titles in 1994 and the [[IBA]] welterweight title in 1997.

Mayweather trained his nephew, Floyd Jr., and drew national attention after he entered the ring in the 10th round of Floyd's April 8, 2006 [[Zab Judah vs. Floyd Mayweather Jr.\|bout]] with [[Zab Judah]].

			Roger entered the ring with five seconds remaining in the round because he was angry at Judah, who had hit Floyd Jr. with a blatant low blow followed by a right hand to the back of the head, both dangerous and illegal punches.

			As referee [[Richard Steele]] called timeout to give Mayweather a chance to recover, Roger stormed toward Judah.

			That prompted [[Yoel Judah]], Jab's father and trainer, to also enter the ring. He went straight for Roger and threw a punch at him.

			Seconds later, the ring was filled with members of the fighter camps and security in a scary free-for-all that came close to sparking a full-scale riot among the 15,170 fans inside the Thomas & Mack Center.

			However, with extra security on hand, order was restored after several minutes and the fight continued.

			Roger was suspended for one year and fined $200,000 by the [[Nevada State Athletic Commission]]. [http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=2407759]
