Floyd Mayweather will step into the ring for the second time this year on Saturday night in Japan.
He faces Japanese MMA star Mikuru Asakura in the main event of a Rizin event at the Saitama Super Arena, with fans excited to see him return for another bout in Asia after his quick knockout of Tenshin Nasukawa in 2018. The kick-boxing prodigy was undefeated in MMA and kick-boxing before facing Mayweather in an exhibition bout, and hasn't lost since.
But he was brutalised within a round by the much bigger and more experienced boxing legend, who showboated on his way to a comfortable victory. Since then, Mayweather has taken on exhibition bouts with Logan Paul and Don Moore, the former being a major pay-per-view hit in America selling over 1million pay-per-views.
