Kieron Dyer lifts lid on his night at Floyd Mayweather's party with 'women everywhere'

Kieron Dyer has opened up on his night at a party hosted by Floyd Mayweather - after he was invited thanks to former teammate Carlton Cole and rapper 50 Cent.

Former England star Dyer starred for West Ham, Newcastle and Ipswich - although his career was blighted by injuries which saw him sidelined for long spells.

It was during one of these periods that he indulged his passion for boxing by travelling to the States to watch ring legend Mayweather in action.

And after planning a night out in Las Vegas, Dyer instead ended up going to a party at Mayweather's mansion, where he said there were "women everywhere".

Dyer, who won 33 caps for England, recalled how he travelled to Vegas to watch Mayweather beat Ricky Hatton, Miguel Cotto and Manny Pacquiao during the American's 50-fight unbeaten reign.

It was after the Cotto fight in 2012 that Dyer ended up partying at Mayweather's pad - thanks to his former West Ham teammate Cole.

"In the Cotto fight, there was this guy we knew who is really close to Carlton Cole, he used to be a DJ for 50 Cent," Dyer told the Golf Life podcast.

"Obviously 50 Cent and Floyd used to be best mates. After the fight, he rings me up and asks what I’m doing.

"I say I’m probably going to go to one of the big clubs in Vegas but he wants me to meet him, everyone is going back to the champs, everyone is going back to Floyd’s."

The 41-year-old added: "I met him, and turned up at Floyd’s house. Must have been about 200 people in the house.

"He had all his belts on the table, there was hardly any sight of him.

"There was women everywhere. I was walking around Floyd’s house, it was very surreal."

Mayweather reigned unbeaten between 1996 and 2015, winning world titles at super featherweight, lightweight, super lightweight, welterweight and light middleweight.
