Floyd Mayweather is continuing to laught it out that the fight between him and Tenshin Nasukawa the kickboxer from Japan is one of the easiest fight he ever had and it is one of the easiest $9million incomes.
Mayweather claimed that he is not ever train for the fight. At the age of 41 it only take Mayweather 1 round of box to knocked out the kickboxer Nasukawa (20 years old) who manage to get a fight with Mayweather under the straight boxing rules for the very first time.
Not only was Mayweather facing another boxing debutant, Nasukawa also came up from his natural weight of 122lbs to fight the American at 147lbs.
So comfortable was Mayweather it took almost one minute for the American to throw a meaningful shot – before he dropped Nasukawa three times as the fight was stopped.
Speaking after the fight, Mayweather claimed he sparred just a few times with rising super-lightweight Daquan Mays in what was a limited training camp.
Mayweather said: “Did I have a training camp for this fight? No.
“I went to the gym a few times and moved around with Daquan (Mays), a young champion on the rise.
“Now, I’m gonna call him a champion now – he could be a champion, which I believe he can, with experience, and if he listened. He’s young, he has a lot to learn, but he will be okay.
“I’m just happy he was able to move around with me, just a little bit, just to get the kinks out, so I can come out here and perform for you guys.”
The exhibition bout will not go on either fighters record with no judges scoring the bout, though the result was clear.
Despite Mayweather’s dominant performance, the fight received much criticism as Mayweather took apart a 20-year-old naturally three stone lighter than him.
Not to mention Mayweather is a 50-0, former five-weight world champion taking on a boxing novice.
However, this isn’t the first time Mayweather competed in a money-grab bout as last year he beat UFC star Conor McGregor in a fight that generated an estimated $550m.
That too was McGregor’s first time limited to straight boxing rules – and it marked the last time Mayweather recorded an official win inside the ring.
