It seems former multiple division world champion Floyd Mayweather isn’t done with the exhibition fight for 2022. Just days after “Money” defeated Japanese MMA fighter Mikuru Asakura in the second round of their scheduled three-round exhibition on Sunday in Saitama, Japan at Rizin 38.
Now Floyd will “fight” British You Tube star Deji on November 13 in Dubai. Deji is the brother of KSI, who outpointed fellow YouTube star Logan Paul in a sanctioned bout in 2019.
“Huge thanks to Global Titans and my team for creating this incredible opportunity,” Deji said in a statement announcing the fight Monday. “It’s a privilege to be headlining this phenomenal spectacle in Dubai, against the all-time great Floyd Mayweather. This is going to be fun!”
Said Mayweather, “I am delighted to bring this incredible boxing experience to Dubai. Global Titans will give fans an unrivalled boxing match with a huge undercard. It is an honour to be a part of such an iconic event in an iconic city, and I would like to thank the Global Titans team for reaching out to me and giving back so much to the sport I love.”
