Early Life
Where was Melissa Brim born?Â

Career
Why is Melissa Brim famous?
While working in a casino, things became a bit easier after she met Floyd Mayweather Jr., as he usually helped her with her child.
However, she still kept her job always to take good care of her own needs.
Melissa, who was more like a tomboy when she met Floyd, became a lot more interested in fashion during this time as Floyd usually showered her with various fashionable gifts.
In the year 1999, she again took her job as a waitress at Rio Hotel and Casino which is located in Las Vegas.
However, she rapidly became pregnant with a baby daughter with Floyd and had to take maternity leave from her job.
Melissa went right back to work after her daughter was finally born.
Much later, in the year 2008, she started to appear on the TV channel HBO’s boxing documentary series ’24/7′, which earned her fame as “Floyd Mayweather’s baby mama”.
Nevertheless, as a hard-working independent woman, she also considers it as “a gift and a curse” to be known only as such.
By the year 2009, she previously had licenses for cosmetology and massage therapy and wanted to open her own salon, but decided against it as the Las Vegas market was already soaked.
Instead of that, she set up the boutique shop named Devanna Love Boutique with the help of her ex-boyfriend, Floyd, and even kept a small salon in the back.
This might be a little tough job ahead of her to avoid media attention as the mother of Floyd’s daughter and create herself as an entrepreneur, but she is leaving no stones unturned.
