YouTube star Deji has been warned by Jeff Mayweather that he will need his nephew Floyd to "carry" the YouTuber if their exhibition bout is to go the distance.
The social media sensation picked up his first win in four boxing efforts at the end of August, and less than three weeks later found himself and his team deep in talks for a fight with the greatest boxer of all time. Mirror Fighting reported last week that Deji and Mayweather will square off on November 13 at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai under the Global Titans Fight Series banner.
The promotion have since confirmed that they will be hosting an event on that date, with Mayweather Promotions also involved, but the bout has yet to be announced. The boxing legend will compete in an exhibition with MMA star Mikuru Asakura on Saturday in Japan, with the Deji fight likely to be confirmed some time later.
