Pound-for-pound boxing king Floyd Mayweather said he dislocated his left elbow in the middle of his majority decision over previously unbeaten Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez on Saturday.

The 36-year-old Mayweather (45-0) earned a record $41.5 million for a dominating 12-round victory in which he claimed Alvarez's World Boxing Council and World Boxing Association super welterweight belts.

"I could have used more combinations down the stretch; I think I dislocated my elbow," Mayweather said at the post-fight media conference.
