"Being surrounded by my family and friends for my birthday weekend reminds me to never take anything for granted in life," said Mayweather. "I am grateful for everything I've accomplished and received in my lifetime. I have a beautiful family, four great children and many friends that have been there since day one. Life is short and I try to make every minute count. This is exactly how I want to celebrate my 40th birthday. I use each year as an opportunity to grow and with this big milestone, I'm even more grateful for everyone who showed me the way and made me the man I am today."
