Floyd Mayweather Jr., a 45-year-old former five-tier world boxer, has been widely criticised for his recently unveiled exhibition match. Because Floyd Mayweather Jr. announced that he will return to the boxing ring next month in Dubai, UAE, he will face Don Moore. Although the boxer named Don Moore maintained a career of 18 wins and 1 draw, he never played any well-known opponents in his career, and Don Moore's most brilliant resume in his career was that he had been a sparring partner for Floyd Mayweather Jr. (to be confirmed).
Such a low-level opponent, coupled with Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s promise to announce that he would not participate in an exhibition match after playing against famous Internet celebrity boxer Logan Paul last year, has made boxing fans think that Floyd Mayweather Jr. is endlessly consuming his fame in order to make money.
On the morning of April 11, 2022, Beijing time, Floyd Mayweather Jr. participated in a talk show called "Intu Boxing" hosted by Moni Caicos, in which Floyd Mayweather fought back against the criticism of the keyboard warriors in the outside world.
The World Boxing Hall of Fame member believes that his decision to continue to seize the opportunity to participate in boxing exhibition matches without prejudice to anyone's interests is not in any way.
Floyd Mayweather Jr. said to Moni Caicos: "You see, a lot of people just don't like to see me making money through competitions. In fact, I'm smart, not the kind of boxer with a simple mind and developed limbs, and I've made a lot of successful investments while keeping my athletic career going. But I wasn't satisfied. Everyone knows that people like Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, Waltons, Walmart, and Walgreens are still struggling to make money even in their 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and even 90s. Why can't a young man like me from america's slums? I gained my current status and wealth through my own efforts, why can't I continue to make money with the skills I do best. You know, I'm capable enough to keep my wealth. ”
In the interview, Floyd Mayweather Jr. also expressed disdain for the keyboard warriors who slammed: "Those who criticize me are jealous of me, they are jealous that I can continue to make $40 million, 50 million, $60 million even after I have left the professional boxing field." My success made them angry and disappointed in their lives, and my old guy could do it and they couldn't. ”
On August 26, 2017, Floyd Mayweather Jr. announced his retirement after beating UFC star Connor McGregor. However, after this, Floyd Mayweather Jr. returned to the boxing ring several times to participate in some exhibition matches with large weight differences. For example, he once went to Japan in 2018, where he defeated the Japanese fighting prodigy Nasugawa Tenshin with boxing rules.
Last June, Floyd Mayweather Jr. played another performance match with influencer Logan Paul. Although the opponents' levels and strengths were uneven, both made Floyd Mayweather Jr. earn a lot of money.
