Mayweather surprises everyone with this decision

It is said that the greatest miracle lasts three days. So long has the news that on December 31st, the invincible American boxer Floyd Maywether will return to the ring to hold a duel with Japanese Tenshin Nasukawa.

But what was promoted as a great challenge today has become a bubble of soap. Once back in America, Mayweather has rejected everything, cancelling the challenge. Through a long post on his official page at “Instagram”, the American boxer has explained why he made that decision.

Now that I have returned to America, after a long and disappointing trip to Tokyo, I have time to address you, my fans and the media about the upcoming event on December 31st, which was recently announced.

First and foremost, I want it to be clear that I, Floyd Maywether, never agreed to hold an official challenge with Tenshin Nasukawa. In fact (with all due respect) I had never heard of him before, until this trip to Japan.

Recently, I was asked to participate in a events like this, in a nine-minute, three-way duel, against a rival chosen by Ryzen Fighting Federation”, explains Mayweather.

I was first informed by Brant Johnson, by Anne Entainment, that this would be a challenge, something organized for a small group of spectators, rich people, for a very large fee. This confrontation was originally organised as a special éduel, just for fun purposes, with no intention to represent as an official boxing challenge, for fans or television.

As soon as I arrived at the press conference, my team and I were stunned by the new direction given to this duel. We should have stopped this event immediately. I sincerely want to apologize to my fans for the disoriented information given during this press conference, and I can assure you that I too was totally blind to the agreement being made without my approval.

For the sake of fans and participants who flew all over the world to attend that press conference, I was puzzled and didn't want to create a big mess, stop what was said there, and for this situation that was created I'm sorry. I'm a retired boxer, who earns an unprecedented amount of money on a global level, for my public appearances and various commitments”, wrote Mayweather.
