This one-off exhibition fight takes place on New Year's Eve in Tokyo, Japan. The Saitama Super Arena is the venue - a 36,500 capacity venue that hosts everything from MMA and boxing to figure skating and music concerts.
Floyd Mayweather vs Tenshin Nasukawa is the main event at the Rizin 14 MMA event, which kicks off at 3pm local time. details remain sketchy as to when the Mayweather fight will begin, but probably around 7.30pm in Tokyo. That means 5.30am ET, 2.30am PT and 10.30am GMT on Monday December 31.
"Just for promoting this event, I’ve made seven figures. Just me talking about the event… I’ve already made crazy money.” It's not hard to see why Mayweather has been motivated to return to competition, and the spectacle of fighting 20-year-old kickboxing sensation Tenshin Nasukawa is an obvious fit for the great showman.
And the risk for Mayweather is low. It's an exhibition fight rather than a sanctioned bout, meaning that his flawless record won't be affected either way. The duo have agreed that it will take place with regular boxing rules over three rounds of three minutes each. The only difference is that Mayweather and Nasukawa will wear Rizin 8 ounce gloves, rather than classic boxing mitts. And if there's no knockout, it will be a draw - there are no judges to crown the winner.
It's a bit of a strange one, for sure. Stranger still for the fact that no major Western broadcaster has picked up the rights to show it and that makes finding a stream difficult (a legit one that is, not some grainy feed from a link on Reddit).
