I guess that's just one of the perks that a famous boxer could enjoy in their retirement years, $30 Million is already a guaranteed money because there's almost no way that his foe will defeat him in an exhibition fight especially the fight have took place in the ring where he is the dominant. I'm also curious though if the organizers can really get more than what they gave? $30 Million is already a huge money, a money that a lower weight class champion cannot even earn in a year.

Nothing to oppose, as you mentioned it right. Mayweather's advantage is by far. Boxing rules and the trainings even Asakura extend his effort trying to learn and make things happen for him in front of his home crowd, Its still the experienced of Mayweather that rise high, the chance is really slim beating an undefeated legend especially if he's the one who's dictating the fight much better to say the one who choose his opponent for an easy money making exhibition fight.

After this, we will see him again fighting another personality that will give him more dollars, the Dubai venue is ideal for money making fights, knowing the locals are wealthy and capable of buying tickets and watch the fight.

Well, Floyd Mayweather has a statement, and he said that he's making his intention clear that he wasn't once he used to be, and right now he doesn't want to fight legit boxers he doesn't want to risk fighting them but instead he wants to fight MMA fighter and Youtubers, Mayweather just wants the Exhibition money fights he doesn't care about reputation anymore, I think he already knows to himself that he can not afford to fight a boxer even a retired boxer like Manny Pacquiao and he can not risk having beaten and injured himself to disable him to fight anymore, I think he is OK fitting like these where there is money,


Well sad to say but at the Super RIZIN post-fight news conference he has been asked if there is a chance that he could fight his former rival, Manny Pacquiao, even in an exhibition match he said that he would not face Manny Pacquaio or any high-level boxer out there just Youtubers and MMA fighters, he retired for a reason and that is to fight high-level fighters in the craft that he is good of, and making entertainment for the people that are watching he added that he is just enjoying himself,

So that's it that is why we can not see any big Exhibition fights like Manny Pacquiao VS Floyd Mayweather that can rack much money or PPV in an instance, but he doesn't want to risk that, but if he would like MMA only fighter I want him fighting Anderson Silva,

Even it is only an exhibition fight, fans will surely love to see both legends about the ring. The chance, though, is slim knowing how
Mayweather will give his excuses.

If ever, just in case that the wind will move in the right direction, maybe a billion of dollars may change his mind. I don't know but
Mayweather can easily bank money from many exhibitions that he might take.

He won't be bothering risking his clean record just to make some amount facing Pacquiao in an exhibition fight.

Of course it's a mismatch I mean, I seriously don't think that Floyd Mayweather would fight someone who have a fair chance in beating the undefeated Floyd. He may say that he's willing to put his record on the line but we already know the truth behind that.

Hopefully we can see another Pacquiao-Mayweather fight even if it's just an exhibition fight, people would surely love that if that's going to happen soon. Even if it's just an exhibition fight these two cannot hide their competitiveness, so we might see classic fight. I'm rooting for it!

After Mayweather successfully knocked out Mikuru Asakura 2 days ago, what's next? he will have another exhibition fight against Deji Olatunji aka KSI brother He's a youtuber and gamer, I think he's following KSI path to make money from boxing. He doesn't have any boxing skills and will easily get knocked out in the first round by Mayweather. The fight will happen on Dubai, UAE on November 13, 2020, Mayweather will gain another big cash flow.

He may be a Youtuber, but he got decent records in Rizin and even though he is not a pure boxer you can see his boxing side that he can surely fight he has a prominent style that he is very likely familiar with and that is Karate, Boxing and BJJ and he is a purple belt on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, but he surely wants to brawl we can say Floyd Mayweather always have the upper hand here because he is well versed with his boxing and the match rules were on boxing so this prohibits Asakura most of his technique, so even though the two is not entering the ring Mayweather got the advantage,

The flower was just part of the show but it was really an insult to Mayweather, and I think out of respect Mayweather just picks up the flowers, but I think deep inside he is really upset because Floyd's fight patterns were off he does not see his usual Philly shell defense but was trying to brawl with Mikuru Asakura he surely wants a knockout in this match, and that is why Asakura has seen he also make some heavy blows on Mayweather, but as the fight goes definitely Floyd Mayweather is really aiming for a knockout,

What an awesome contract for the fact that Mayweather is now retired. Actually, way better than he is earning compare to some of his professional fights. Also much higher compared to the contract of active boxers today even though they are holding a boxing title.

That reason alone is enough for Mayweather to just ignore his critics and don't bother with his legacy as long as he is earning big money.

As he said before during his controversial win against Ortiz - A win is a Win.

It is normal to show support to the person who trains under you, and that is why Manny is present on that fight.  But regardless of the reason, it will give an impact having Manny Pacquiao watching an exhibition fight showing that the Legendary boxer supports such kind of activity.


Even though I wanted Manny to beat Mayweather Jr.  I have to agree with what Mayweather is saying.  Manny isn't as explosive as when they first fight. The boxing style of Manny needs a lot of speed and stamina which somehow I think deteriorated as Pacquiao gets passed his prime.  While Mayweather's boxing is still solid since it does not need much mobility just some good reflexes to counter or beat the opponent in the speed of launching attacks.  Most of these punches don't carry much power and are used to score a point.  And of course, having Bayless as the referee will ensure Mayweather's win.   Since Bayless doesn't allow too much infighting and tends to break fighters apart to avoid brawls.


We can consider that as is but I think Mayweather isn't saying that for hype rather he believes he can really beat Manny now after evading him for many years, just like what he does before their first fight.

He could but it's nonsense because why would Jake Paul file a complaint against judge Glenn Feldman? He wasn't a victim, nor he was in that fight where Glenn Feldman was biased. It's like filing a complaint to a car driver that didn't do some damage to you. In short, Jake Paul have crossed the line and he didn't expect that Eddie Hearn will file a lawsuit for that. This will be lesson for Jake Paul not to mess with the big boy's league.

That $100 Million might be just enough to cover the damage of what Jake Paul did for the image of Eddie Hearn and the Matchroom Boxing, the court will likely side with the plaintiff for this instance.

I watched the match. Japanese guy wasn't even the professional boxer opposite Floyd Mayweather. The man is a Youtuber. Of course, such people don't stand a chance against Money Mayweather. The exhibition match was supposed to last 3 rounds, but at the end of the 2nd round, Money Mayweather knocked out his opponent. In fact, he was also surprised because he didn't expect such a knockdown at the last second. I thought we were going to watch the last round of the match.
Still, it was a fun night. Manny Pacquiao was also one of the guests and Floyd spoke very highly of him. From what I heard, Floyd Mayweather won 15-20 million dollars from this match. It's very easy money for him.
It wasn't pleasant for the Japanese to throw the flower on the ground while the flowers were being presented at the beginning of the match. I guess that was part of the show too.

Yup! Manny Pacquiao was really not there so that he and Mayweather will have their own Exhibition match, he was there to give his support to Floyd's opponent and that is Mikuru Asakura, but what happened is Floyd Mayweather knockout Mikuru Asakura in front of Manny Pacquiao that is one epic win for Mayweather it is like giving a message to Pacquaio that you can not win against me,

But that Press Conference has some hidden message on Pacman and Floyd, it is like Floyd's teasing Pacquiao that he is not going to win against him, and knowing Pacquiao who never backs down will surely submit to these insults or he even knows that Pacquaio will not be going to be caught with that petty teasing, or he is just trying to tease Pacquaio if he's going to bite that to fight him, we can never know unless both boxers will surely comply, but many fans will surely love to see that,

On the Contrary next big event was on October 15, and this is a title fight between Devin Haney vs. George Kambosos Jr. pretty much it is really close,

Good question, and it makes me wonder as well where are they going the money from?

https://www.fightsports.tv/rizin-president-accused-of-ties-to-japanese-organized-crime/


This accusations have been mostly in the media, but so far no evidences have surfaced. But then again, it's boils down to the question, that there could be ties but it's hard to proved.

Floyd is getting $20-$30 million per fight deal with Rizin.

From what I understand it's the opposite Pacquiao show support to Asakura who flew from Japan to PH to be trained by Pacquiao's camp, they've got some press con though, Mayweather and Pacquiao and we never know if they will have their own version of an exhibition together, I'm sure even it's just an exhibition fans will love to see them stepping inside the ring.

Though from the statement of Mayweather he's trying to tell Pacquiao not to listen to someone who is telling him to ask for another fight against him, as he is assuring that Pacquiao will have that same outcome.

A drama to attract fans' attention I guess? Maybe they are trying to bring more hypes if in case there's something that they
are trying to cook behind the door.

For me, I am OK with seeing him in an exhibition match now that he is not in his prime anymore, it is pretty much for a Manny Pacquiao to just be having some exhibition match with Floyd Mayweather that has recently knocked out a Japanese MMA fighter, I think this is the best rematch for them now that they are both retired, a fitting match to watch Floyd Mayweather despite his age he still showing speed and that Knockout was really amazing aswell,


Did you see Floyd Mayweather VS Mikuru Asakura it was a great match to watch even though Asakura is not really a boxer or an MMA fighter he is hitting Floyd Mayweather he is hitting him with big shots, and even though this is only an Exhibition match it was a freaking war between the two, Mayweather still got that moves, and when you hit him he sometimes try to get you in with poker face you would think he is hurt but it truth he is just acting it out for his opponent to think of lowering his defense for Mayweather to retaliate, this is still Floyd Mayweather's world but still salute for Mikuru Asakura for landing big punches on Floyd,

Saw this on news a few days ago where Manny Pacquiao is showing some support to his former foe Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Legacy doesn't matter to Mayweather as long as he is receiving money while on retirement.

Any information how much he got from this exhibition match?

Its all about money and a business at the same time and this is where they do make out some considerations on making these exhibition fights in between fighters which arent that pure boxers or simply crossing
on sports which they arent specialized into or something that just simply a pure youtuber. It do really sucks on seeing this but surprisingly there is really a demand into it and this is why we do still
continue to see different arrangement in between those people as long those people are well known or popular then they could really milk out money from people.

That is the power of being a legendary  businessman, err, a legendary and a hall of fame boxer.  It isn't easy for Floyd Maywether Jr.  to get where he is right now.  He invested almost his lifetime in building his reputation and fame.  So he is just reaping what he has sawn in his early years.

The problem is those lower class champion doesn't know how to do business.  they just put their fate on their promoters and manager who in turn actually reaping huge reward from them.


It is either of the two, anything is possible but we can't say that they are true because we are just speculating at this point.  Probably they are earning somehow because they won't do this kind of sponsoring again and again if they are on the losing end.


Simple reason, they are not as controversial and as popular as Floyd Mayweather Jr.  Not saying Floyd has a perfect record, something that is worth bragging and worth breaking.

Damn, 20 - 30 million is a dream money fight for some of the elite boxers that we have right now, Canelo is still the cash cow, but GGG get around that money fighting him. So just imagine those lower weight class champion, I doubt that they can get around how much Floyd is making in exhibition fight in like 6 minutes.


Or why it is that Japan or Rizin si really fond of Floyd and giving him such huge money? Are they getting their money in return from sponsoring Floyd's fight? Why not get ex-boxers to come out and have some exhibitions fights as well?

He did what now? Wow, Jake Paul really crossed the line and Eddie Hearn took it personally that's why he filed a lawsuit against Jake Paul, and I personally think that it is indeed a good move because you cannot really accuse someone when you don't have any solid evidence to support what you've said. Of course that will remain as an allegation if Jake Paul cannot provide a proof but Eddie Hearn's image as well as the Matchroom Boxing is now vandalized.

We know we're speculating about that because Canelo somehow got some help from those judges in the past but Jake Paul was way to bold to throw that statement out of the blue
