Boxing legend Manny Pacquiao of the Philippines waves as he enters the arena to attend the exhibition match between US boxer Floyd Mayweather and Japanese mixed martial artist Mikuru Asakura at the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama.The 45-year-old Mayweather floored his opponent with a right hand as his former welterweight foe Manny Pacquiao watched ringside in Saitama.“I retired for a reason,” said Mayweather.
On another easy payday for the self-styled “Money” Mayweather, the bell to end the second round sounded as Asakura hit the canvas, but it failed to save the Japanese fighter and he was unable to beat the count. Asakura, an MMA star and popular YouTuber in Japan, gave Mayweather more of a workout than the last time the American fought an exhibition in Japan, against kickboxing prodigy Tenshin Nasukawa in December 2018.“I’m proud of him. I’m proud he came out here. He helped me entertain people. He did what he was supposed to do… We both had fun.”Mayweather beat McGregor in his final fight before retirement.
