Fans are again accusing Floyd Mayweather of fixing one of his post-retirement exhibition bouts after footage appeared to indicate that his fight-ending punch on Saturday night didn't land.
Mayweather knocked out MMA star Mikuru Asakura in the second round of their fight at the Saitama Super Arena over the weekend after taking a couple of big shots early in the contest. But some fans are theorising that the bout was fixed after a video was circulated that seemed to show the boxing legend just missing Asakura's head with the final shot.
It wouldn't be the first time that fans claimed Mayweather had fixed a fight, after previously declaring he had done so during his last visit to Japan in 2018. Then, he dropped kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa three times on route to his corner throwing in the towel but some questioned the legitimacy of the punches given Mayweather was famous for not having much power during his prime.
