At 40 and he wanna try something new....im not mad at him

I can see the fight being at 140 lbs probably

You think Floyd can make 140? I don't. I think lil dude is gonna need to get fat.

Dang lots of haters here

I thought he would get some respect taking on a good guy to fight in a probable kickboxing match

This isn't a probable kickboxing match. There is no way Floyd is fighting a kickboxer in a kickboxing match. And specifically a guy w/o a name.

I think Rizin has done US PPV in the past, but I'm not 100%. My guess would be it'll be a US PPV.

That comes when we know the rules.

So it'll be rizin broadcast with weird ass commentators weve never heard of before and possibly the entire fight in japanese subtitles? lmfao

Ali had exhibition matches that were jokes, and highly certificated at the time. but they weren’t official matches. Same with “Foreman fights Five” those freak shows weren’t sanctioned or official bouts.

If Ali was around in 2018 he'd be doing this same sh^t doe.

And if I was guessing I'd say this fight won't be an official fight in boxing, MMA or kickboxing.

I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't even a winner, although I'm not sure if Pride/Rizin has ever done that so maybe not. Might even be some weird rule MMA-ish exhibition fight like that Kimbo Slice vs Ray Mercer fight best case competition wise.

Why all the hate, Floyd Jr said he'll try MMA.
Dana White must be drooling by now!

If this is anything other than boxing I'll be shocked. This kid can fight. He probably can't box doe.

I get no grappling but no kicks or elbows? He just turned 20 and i heard he a 120lb fighter lol.

I'd bet there'll be a English version like they have Spanish versions of many boxing events.
