Who Is Yaya Mayweather's Mom? Inside Melissia Rene Brim's Lavish Life and Bond with Floyd
By James H. Sterling
Brim refused to remain strictly dependent on child support allowances. Recognizing her eye for contemporary streetwear and resort fashion, Mayweather backed her ambition to launch a business. In 2014, Brim opened the Devanna Love Boutique, situated inside the Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian Resort in Las Vegas.
The name combined the monikers of her two children, Devonte and Iyanna. The brick-and-mortar storefront catered to high-end tourists and local fashion enthusiasts, specializing in curated designer dresses, swimwear, and evening apparel. Although she later shifted her focus toward digital ventures and private consulting, the storefront operated successfully for years, providing Brim with real-world executive credentials and financial literacy separate from Floyd's boxing career.
