Floyd Mayweather vs Deji UK start time, undercard and TV channel

Deji Tommy Fury Floyd Maywear Tyson Fury Jake Paul Logan Paul Rolly Lambert Anthony Taylor Derek Chisora Frank Warren Jack Fincham

British YouTube star Deji takes on one of the greatest boxers of all time tonight as he enters the ring in Dubai against Floyd 'Money' Mayweather in an exhibition bout.

The younger brother of KSI has become a big name in the world of celebrity boxing, having been the first opponent of Jake Paul back in 2018 as his brother fought Logan Paul. He most recently beat Fousey to earn the first win of his career having suffered defeat to Alex Wassabi earlier in the year.

Now, however, he will face an altogether different test in an exhibition against a fighter widely regarded as one of the greatest of all time. Mayweather retired with a record of 50-0 but that unbeaten record will not be at risk against the Brit due to this fight's status as an exhibition.
