Floyd Mayweather set for New Year's Eve fight in Japan

[Coffeemaker]

I rather watch other things , this is like staged

His fight in Japan was rather stroll through the park. Floyd Mayweather  is great boxer and even at his age he still dominated 20 years younger Japanese fighter. He probably made deal with organisation when exactly to knock Nasukawa *kick-boxer my ass*. However world recognized farce.

[LogitechMouse]

I didn't expect that it will end on the first round. Money wasted fight for the audience. The event is just for the sake of money nothing more nothing less. The young Japanese kickboxer just cried on the end of the fight. He can't withstand the power of Mayweather. I'm thinking of a possible Pacquiao - Mayweather part 2 . The fight is just useless.

Actually it is said that Mayweather didn't make 9 millions but ten times that because of PPV shares he received.
Not bad for 2 minutes of sparring.

Tenshin Nasukawa doesnt have the boxing skills to match a seasoned fighter like Floyd Mayweather. Floyd just gave the kid a boxing lesson that he will never forget. Just look at after Nasukawa throws a punch and leaves his face and body open for a counter. His defense is so weak. Nasukawa and his camp is crazy in accepting this fight, the humiliation is not enough for the money that they will earn from this. Both parties are just in for the money but Nasukawa may have earned a lot from this fight but lost his face in the mma world. He didn't even lasted a 1 round.

I watched the fight yesterday just to tell you it's so boring to watch. I don't know if this is a fight or supposedly an exhibition match. I've seen a lot of comments saying the fight was staged, that Tenshin went for the quick money. I would like to see the dream match again of Floyd vs Manny this year 2019.

Nasukawa was no match for Mayweather which makes me wonder why they were put in the ring together.

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.

~ snip ~

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.

It was a easy money that Floyd did not train or at least put his best effort on this exhibition fight.

Mayweather: Did I Have Training Camp For Nasukawa? No.

So basically it was a mismatch and Floyd knew it from the very beginning, immediately signed the contract when it was offered because there's no way that a bantamweight can beat welterweight. LOL.

Lol I don’t even know that theres this kind of stupid event,watching mayweather standing on the ring seems like another WWF artist that giving fun for the fans,nothing serious but all just for the sake of money ,better to warch clowns and flying trapeze artist than mayweathers game

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.

The fight video was pretty lame. Would Floyd have won if his opponent could have used his legs? I doubt it. Yet he was still strutting around like he had just retained his belt or something. It's hard to believe anybody made any money here except for Floyd.

Like many others, I'd like to see him fight Pacquiao again, but quite honestly I can't see the fight ending any other way than it did the last time. What would possibly change between last time and the next time? Both are getting older at the same rate after all.

I quite enjoyed it hehehe. Especially after the body shot that caused the first knock down that showed the face Tenshin Nasukawa made. I reckon he suddenly became aware that the fight was not an exhibition for Floyd, but real and Floyd was there to kill him.

Maybe Floyd scammed the Rizin Fighting Federation by pretending to agree that it would only be an exhibition hehehe.

If that is true then Mayweather really pulls the best scam in sporting history hehehe. So thats $ 90 million without hard work and training in contrast to other sporting personalities like in NBA basketball which players make that kind of money in like 5 -10 years.

This is not confirm I guess, the amount that we are talking is just a speculation.
We all know Floyd is not really an entertaining fighter, so why would people still support this kind of trick.

We cannot complain, we are the one is making this guy richer.

AFAIK he's one of the highest paid actors in sports, I mean athletes or maybe he's the #1. So that figure might be true.

Of course it will be uploaded as Floyd wins, and the fight is actually with some kind of actor.

And how come a non-boxer will do boxing, while Floyd is one of the best in that industry, of course the out come is obvious.

Actor is more suitable for him than to be an athlete.

Theres no confirmation yet on how much did he actually earn with that fight and I don't even believe that he do earn PPV shares on that one.

[bering]

The fight not so interesting for me because obviously kickboxer fighter will having trouble if they fight with boxing rules and Nasukawa looks crying after referee decide to stopped the fight and i was wondering whether mayweather punch still very strong although just like the post above me that myweather didn't training for this exhibition match or Nasukawa have weak chin and easy to defeated

[jademaxsuy]

I do not like Mayweather on his fighting skills. He does not show good action in the ring with Manny Pacquiao and was able to win the fight after running most of the rounds. It was absolutely not a boxing for it will be considered as running. Mayweather is always afraid of getting hit by one of the strongest boxer in the world. He knows it that is why he always run. Poor Big Mouth always a gay in his fights and now fighting for MMA. Well good luck on the viewers for sure it is boring to watch. You will just see Mayweather running in the ring.

You must be kidding, right?

If not, you seem to forget that Floyd kicked asses (or should I say punched faces?) of every worthy fighter out there in his weight classes during his long career including such ruthless fighters as Hatton and Pacquiao (and other 40+ boxers, for the record), and they couldn't do anything against him (some tried but failed). What he does right now has very little to do with boxing (and sports in general) but as the proverb says, strike while the iron is hot. So he just profits off his former boxing achievements, and he more than deserved that right. He may not be the best fighter pound for pound in history but his long and speckless fight record speaks for itself

Of course Mayweather shot took its tool on Nasukawa because his body is small as compare to Floyd who weight like about 150-155 lbs in that match against Nasukawa's 122-125 lbs. So definitely is someone bigger than you and hit you in the face, I'm sure that your chin will give out.  I'm not familiar with Nasukawa though so probably he has a weak chin as well.

So what kind of fight would be good boxing according to you?

Mayweather catching devastating punches from Pac with his face? Would that count as good fighting skills to you? Being mobile in the ring and avoiding punches is what makes a good boxer, not just landing them. If anything, boxing is not a bar brawl and top punchers rarely make it to the top (being stopped by those who care about defenses too). Okay, you don't like Mayweather, we get it, but what about Mike Tyson and his peek-a-boo boxing style as well as famous pendulum, which are used specifically to avoid punches in the face? Is he a coward or what?

People nowadays do only look at on a single fight and giving out comment about best on scamming on sports without even thinking on how he do able to reach up that record. Shall we say that all of those wins are just jokes? There might be some fights which isn't really appealing or interesting at all but he wont able to achieve that spot if he doesn't have the skills as a boxing fighter.
