Floyd Mayweather
has said he is ready for any challenge as he prepares to fight
20-year-old Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa on New Years Eve in
Japan -without being able to specify what format or rules the fight will
follow.
In a shock move, the American former world boxing champion announced that he is aligning with the mixed martial arts
company RIZIN Fighting Federation. Mayweather, 41, has never fought
professionally in mixed martial arts and has revealed it is yet to be
decided whether the fight would be a pure boxing bout or some other
mixture of martial arts.
Mayweather, whose last fight was in the boxing ring in 2017
against Conor McGregor, remains undefeated in his career and is
confident he will come out on top again, saying ‘I can do it all’.
Nasukawa is contracted to RIZIN and competes in their championships in
both MMA and pure kickboxing; he has won all four of his MMA fights.
