The boxing legend disposed of Mikuru Asakura at the end of round two
Boxing icon Floyd Mayweather delivered a show-stopping knockout for a reserved crowd in Saitama, Japan on Sunday, finishing Rizin MMA fighter Mikuru Asakura in the second round of their exhibition meeting.
Asakura treated the three-round meeting like a real fight and went for broke. Looking to counter his opponent’s notorious speed, which saw Mayweather retire a five-weight champion with an unblemished 50-0 record, Asakura let off straight punches and jabs that gave the American trouble.
Mayweather was on the receiving end of a trio of powerful combinations in the second round, and backed off smiling to regain his composure.
Deciding to punish his foe for taking the exhibition too seriously, he let off a powerful right hand that floored Asakura and left him struggling to get off the canvas.
A right hand from Floyd just before the bell brings an end to the bout, and Asakura suffers his first KO loss ‼️
