Floyd Mayweather, the renowned boxing legend, recently opened up about the profound impact of the passing of his longtime assistant, Marikit “Kitchie” Laurico. In a heartfelt interview on the “Pivot” podcast, Mayweather expressed his deep sorrow and described Kitchie as more than just an employee, but as his best friend.

Remembering a Dear Friend

Mayweather shared how Kitchie was the one person in his life with whom he could confide in and who knew his deepest secrets. He described her as the kindest and most selfless woman he had ever met, emphasizing her unwavering support and loyalty over the more than a decade she served as his assistant.

“Kitchie was the only person in life that I could talk about anything to, that knew my deepest secrets,” Floyd said. “There was no male or female in my life that I told more stuff to than her.”

A Lasting Impact

Despite Mayweather’s ability to financially support her, Kitchie never sought his assistance, instead focusing on uplifting and supporting him and his family. Mayweather expressed deep regret that they were unable to fulfill their plans, including celebrating her 50th birthday in Aruba and attending the Super Bowl in Las Vegas together, before her untimely passing.

A Heartfelt Farewell

Mayweather also revealed his anguish over not being able to provide Kitchie with a proper farewell, expressing that she deserved so much more. He described their relationship as one of deep camaraderie and friendship, referring to her as “a sister I never had” and “a best friend I ever had.”
