Why is everyone angry when Floyd won the fight? You have an experienced 40 year old, 50 - 0, best pound for pound boxer versus a young kickboxer fighting in boxing rules. How was this fight supposed to end?

Not angry but a bit disgusted. We all know that Floyd said he is the GOAT, but how come you became one of the greatest if you keeps on fighting for the money? And I think you know that there are predominantly Pacquaio fans around the community and they wanted to see Floyd lost and take away that 0. lol.

Definitely an easy match. Not even finishing round one, that's just finishing easily. The main event that just is for money. I think both parties are happy because of the payout. When Floyd is involved, it's all about the money, nothing else. We all know how great at boxing he is and making sure that events he does are a big payout.

Anybody bet on the underdog? I'm wondering if they think that the underdog can win.

It's incredible how much money could be brought in by an event that has so much friction. I might as well want to start a business that holds over events but I think it's hard and a lot of work.

Five million fine is a lot. Damn. I hope that his instincts would be to stop kicking and it would be hard. It would be like McGregor not hammer fisting Floyd in the head. But it still happened anyway. Even all the training, it's just different when you are already in the ring.

That $5 million fine for me looks like another way to really put all the advantage on Mayweather as what we witnessed in the fight. I feel compassion for those who really bought the ticket because the fight is really a circus act even before the bell rings. Might be the easiest win and money for Floyd Mayweather. He really played everyone here because it was reported that he arrived late. I mean, WTF? If this is a serious fight then I'm sure he won't be late. It's just like "whatever, I can go anytime I want because I'm going to beat that kid anyways". In contrast, Nasukawa’s team hid his face going back to the dressing room, he was sobbing because of the embarrassment. We all know that Japanese fighters takes pride in every fight but I guess he was really caught by this big event.

It is another added advantage. Maybe in the mind of Floyd's opponent is not so focused since he knows how to fight differently. I think everyone knows how different their tiers are, especially if it's for boxing. Well, they have contracts signed, so it's all about money.

Pointless waste of time, he knocked him down 3 times in 139 seconds. $9,000,000 for Floyd in under 5 minutes work.

Just like I was saying, Floyd is damaging his legacy as a professional fighter, all he seems to be thinking about is money but he forgets about pride and honor. Sad to watch.
I had a quick look at the event on YT and it was just a circus event. The fact that no bookmaker offered any odds for this (not even Bet365) was a strong signal that no one took this seriously.

Floyd really doesn't care about his legacy as a fighter, for him he is the greatest, 50-0 and really doing it for the sake of money. And maybe in the future, when he retires, there could be a good argument why he is not the greatest boxer of his era simply because of this kind of fight he accepts and most boxing pundits will argue that Manny is the best hands down.

Where in the world we would see to have a fight which is on different type? Boxing Vs MMA? With having a Boxing rules then I would say a Boxer would have the advantage.
If it would be on MMA then its other way around. So, basically speaking setting up these fights do really involve big money behind and as a boxer or participant, you wont accept such fight
if the offer wont really be good and Floyd Mayweather do loves that.

The MMA experience of Tenshin Nasukawa is useless since its boxing rules. I was surprised that the fight was uploaded in Youtube after reading the rules set by Floyd, I thought the fight will not be uploaded since there's a media black out, I guess there's a change of plans and someone again earned from doing this.

Like others said, it was a complete waste of time. With boxing rules, there was nothing else to expect from this.

Except for money, I don't see what benefit the fighters got from this. Nasukawa had the opportunity to make a name for himself, he failed miserably.
As for Mayweather, this won't do his reputation any good.

It was announced as an exhibition fight. So I am not sure that Floyd damaged his reputation and maybe he doesn't care.
He won a quick 8 million dollar for a 2 minute fight, not bad Grin

.

That's a quick bucks from that fight, with a small amount of time without any pressure just the press and promoters to encourage gamblers to bet with this show, can't say it was a fight but another easy money making business from Floyd's team, enjoying the new year without any hardship to deal with.

Lol Pacmans trolling is pure PR, they will most definitely fight once again, I know since Pacman fight Mayweather fight with Conor who was a UFC fighter and this tenshin dude who he basically just played like a fish but in the end when its all said and done Mayweathers biggest win was against Pacman and it was a controversial decision, as soon as the fight is due everyone will flock to it like crazy and I think more than 50% of the watchers will want Mayweather to lose that fight.

If people do not care who wins or already knows who will win that fight is boring but if people want the previous winner with no losses ever to actually end up losing once before they retire against a semi-decent guy that fight will attract millions of views easily. I think the purse for such fight will be easily 400+ million total, from all views and ads and all that combined they can easily make that much money.

Its not our business if he would like to damage his legacy and anyone can make their own decisions if he would exchange his pride and honor for money.

I didnt even see 1% chance for Nasukawa to beat up Floyd's ass.Im little bit irritated how that young guy do have some introduction which he feels
that he can able to beat him up but in the end he almost cried on frustration.Take a look on each punch given by floyd even if its being blocked you can feel
that young boy is gradually flew away. Grin

I Knew it, the fight was really a waste of time that's why I did not manage to watch it live.
Just recently watch the highlights now after reading all your comments, this looks so WWE, let's forget this fight, clearly a waste of money and time.

If this is the case then it is not a good sign as people would have cancelled their new year plans just for the fight and it has being a disappointing for the people who have spent their money and time . They should have respect the people who are coming so that it would have worth everything

Not a waste of money for those who really understand what's the motive behind. But for those Japanese people who flock and watch the fight live, (I'm not really sure how much is the attendance) it's pretty obvious that they have been scammed and the only winner here is Floyd "Money" Mayweather.

It looks like Pacquiao trolled Mayweather with this tweet. Probably he is not the one who tweeted it because I'm sure someone from his family or team are handling his tweeter account. But still its very funny. Grin

That’s a real fighter for me, let’s see if there’s a rematch between Pacquiao and Floyd soon. For now, let’s share some thoughts about the recent fight of Floyd Maywethear which is very obvious that its a fight for money and not for the title anymore. Floyd is bigger and have an advantage on the boxing ring, from there you can see who will win the fight.

At first I thought his fight with UFCs Khabib Nurmagomedov is in the works, but now this one surfaced the news recently. It's nice to see that his fight is more likely MMA rules but I am not trying to belittle Tenshin Nasukawa, his record is flawless and I am not taking that away from him but I don't think the kid will stand a chance with Floyd Mayweather. Floyd will just do his antics of jab and run. I wonder how much money was offered to Floyd Mayweather by the promoter of this fight to square off with the kid.

I would bet money that the Khabib Nurmagomedov vs Floyd Mayweather fight will happen somewhere in 2019.

The fight with the japanese kickboxer is a setup fight for what is coming next year. He has so many options actually. He can do the Khabib fight, a Conor rematch, and a Pacquiao rematch. Im sure some of these will happen.

Well, if this will happen then maybe I'll start saving my money now.
I like to put my money on Khabib Nurmagomedov because this guy is gonna choke Mayweather to death, he hates trashtalkers.

If he dominated Conor , I'm sure it would be easier against Mayweather.

Wondering what the betting odds would bet. Grin

Btw and just to make things clear, by setup fight, I meant to say tune-up fight, as in, to get ready for the next, actual fight that will be a real bout that goes on his professional record (this one didn't count).

As far the Tenshin fight goes, I was expecting an aggressive Mayweather since in a 3 round fight there's no time for too many adjustments, it's a war since the first second. Mayweather had the weight and experience advantages, that hit to the temple screwed up Tenshin's motor skills, to the point that some thing it was a fixed fight, I don't think so, get it in the temple by a professional boxer and see what happens.

Hopefully we'll see a full 12 round fight again but he said he is retired for the time being.

Khabib is bigger than Conor, if they fight Khabib will look huge next to Floyd, so I expect a decision.
