Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Aaron Chalmers

The exhibition boxing match on February 25 against Aaron Chalmers is another in the series of Mayweather’s various retirement matches. The American-born fighter faced former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor in 2017 and then retired from professional competition.

Since his 2017 retirement, Mayweather has faced Deji Olatunji, Mikuru Asakura, Don Moore, Logan Paul, and kickboxing great Tenshin Nasukawa in exhibition matches.

Aaron Chalmers is a UK-born athlete who is best known for being a member of the Geordie Shore reality show. In MMA, he sports a 5-2 record with experience in Bellator MMA. Chalmers has not fought since 2020.

Initially, Floyd Mayweather was aiming for an exhibition boxing match against one of the most important fighters in UK Muay Thai history ‘The Hitman’ Liam Harrison. Unfortunately, Harrison suffered a knee injury in his ONE Muay Thai World Title match against Nong-O Gaiyanghadao and was forced to pull out from the fight. Instead, it will be former MMA fighter Aaron Chalmers meeting Mayweather at the O2 Arena.

Famed boxing trainer Teddy Atlas recently compared Jake Paul to Floyd Mayweather Jr. Not so much based on their boxing skills but instead focusing on their business proficiency.

While speaking on his podcast ‘THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas,’ the boxing trainer explained:

“He’s almost been an understudy of the great Floyd Mayweather, really, and that’s a positive thing. We’re not talking about as a fighter. We’re talking about in this business, as a businessman, as a matchmaker, as a manager, just as a smart calculated man. Jake Paul has been every bit of Floyd Mayweather.”

Teddy Atlas on Jake Paul’s dedication to boxing

Jake Paul is a YouTuber who has become a professional boxer worth tens of millions of dollars. Teddy Atlas is impressed with ‘The Problem Child’ being able to dedicate himself to the pugilistic form of combat. Teddy Atlas said:

“Floyd was very smart in picking his opponents and just a genius businessman, and Jake Paul is very smart at picking opponents, and he’s a genius businessman. Give him credit. Give him credit, d**nit. It’s the American way. I don’t have a problem with him because he went, got a trainer, he worked his backside off to become the best fighter he could, and he’s still doing it.”

On Jake Paul’s in-ring skills, Atlas said:

“He’s still trying to get better. He’s never gonna be a world-class fighter. We understand that, but he’s gonna be the best he can be, and he’s trying to be the best he can be. He respected the sport enough to go about it the right way. Yeah, he’s careful picking [his opponents], but there’s still risk. There’s still risk. He deserves respect. There’s still a risk when he gets into that freakin’ ring. He’s getting in there with real people that throw real punches.” [Transcript courtesy of Middle Easy]

Jake Paul will next face Tommy Fury on February 26 from Saudi Arabia.

“A lot of times when you say certain things you don’t want what you say you want. I mean he’s doing good for what he’s doing. You know, like I said, for what he’s doing [Audience laughs].”

On getting called out by ‘The Problem Child,’ ‘Pretty Boy’ Floyd said:

“He’s just a lot of talk. It’s different when you’re [facing boxers] at the highest level; once you get in there with a real fighter that can really fight. Is he doing good? Absolutely. For who he’s fighting. Guys 50, guys 40 [Audience laughs]. Does he want to fight me? Of course, I’m nearly 50 years old, of course, he wants to fight me.”

Floyd Mayweather in discussions for blockbuster pro boxing return against Conor McGregor or Manny Pacquiao: ‘Will announce names later’

All-time boxing great Floyd Mayweather Jr. has been keeping busy in retirement by taking on multiple exhibition bouts. The 45-year-old US-born athlete has participated in four exhibition boxing fights, with one more scheduled, since his final professional fight against UFC fighter Conor McGregor in 2017.

Upcoming later this year, the American boxer is booked against Deji, a UK celebrity YouTuber, on November 13.

However, exhibition fights will not be forever for Floyd Mayweather. According to Global Titans CEO Uday Singh, the 50-0 boxer is looking to put his unblemished record on the line and step back in the professional boxing circuit again, but they’re looking for the right opponent. Singh spoke with Insider.com and said:

“We do have plans to do a real fight which is not an exhibition fight with Floyd and someone else next year. We’re looking at Vegas as a venue, and that’s somewhere next year after October. We already talked and will announce names a bit later. These are very big names as we’ve had interest from a few people like Conor [McGregor] and Manny Pacquiao.”

Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather had one of the biggest fights in boxing history when they fought in 2015. The US-born fighter has taken two fights in the Japanese MMA promotion RIZIN, and last month Pacquiao and Mayweather were photographed together at a RIZIN event alongside the organization’s promoter Nobuyuki Sakakibara. Sakakibara also worked with PRIDE FC.

Floyd Mayweather keeping busy making good money in exhibition matches

While professional boxing will be on the table soon, Uday Singh does admit that exhibition matches have been quite lucrative for the retired boxer. Speaking to Insider.com, he explained that for Floyd Mayweather’s last bout against Moore he made 25 to 30 million dollars. In his next fight against YouTuber Deji, Mayweather will see “Up to 30 million dollars.” According to earlier reports, for his two fights in RIZIN, the 45-year-old boxer has been pocketing 10 million dollars each.

The CEO Singh adds that they will happily re-enter the boxing business but it must be with the right business partner. He added:

“When we’re talking to anyone, we’re talking one-year, two, three, four, or five-year partnerships … We do have things like Jake Paul fighting Deji on the cards, Jake Paul fighting Tommy Fury on the cards, and that’s going to be an e

Chael Sonnen claims Floyd Mayweather Jr is exaggerating his fight purse for his exhibition boxing bout: “He’s getting 8 Million”

Chael Sonnen has questioned the legitimacy of Floyd Mayweather‘s claims after he suggested he would be earning between $15-20 Million for his exhibition boxing bout against Mikuru Asakura. A man normally with the inside knowledge Sonnen has claimed that Mayweather has exaggerated the amount he will be receiving by nearly double ahead of his September […]

Chael Sonnen has questioned the legitimacy of Floyd Mayweather‘s claims after he suggested he would be earning between $15-20 Million for his exhibition boxing bout against Mikuru Asakura.

A man normally with the inside knowledge Sonnen has claimed that Mayweather has exaggerated the amount he will be receiving by nearly double ahead of his September 25^th clash against Asakura.

Speaking on his YouTube channel Sonnen shared his thoughts on just how much Mayweather will truly make this upcoming weekend.

“Floyd is claiming he’s gonna get $20 million for this — I call it ‘rassling because they’re not actually [fighting] — but whatever they’re getting ready to do in Japan, whatever that is that’s going to look like boxing, he’s getting $8 million.”

“Now, eight is a beautiful number. But he claimed he was getting 20. So I feel because I know the real number, that I can’t let it go. I must come to you guys. I have a journalistic obligation to come and inform you it’s actually $8 million and he’s exaggerating.”

It is unknown just how much truth there is to Sonnen’s suggestions but competitors inflating the amount they truly earn is not exactly something you should be surprised by, if true.

Chael Sonnen claims Floyd Mayweather Jr vs. Mikura Asakura is scripted

Chael Sonnen did not stop there with his claims surrounding ahead of this weekend’s exhibition bout, he took it one step further to claim that the matchup is all part of a ‘script’ to favour Mayweather.

“If Floyd can go in there and get $8 million for whatever that is and he doesn’t have to work very hard, he doesn’t have to train at all because the script is on his side and they’ve already told him who’s going down and when isn’t that something I’d want to emulate?

“Floyd’s gonna go over to Dubai, he’s gonna do something after this, which will represent the second time that he’s done that, and he’s going to get millions of dollars. I don’t know, I think in Dubai, they’re actual competition, they’re just with bums.

“Those might also be scripted like the stuff he’s doing in Japan, I don’t actually know that, I haven’t got to see one, they’re like little private events.

“This is his second time going back [to Japan],” Chael Sonnen said. “People use Floyd once, they get their ass kicked and they don’t go back to him. It was a terrible deal. These guys are. They paid him $8 million, gave him a script, bringing him back again, giving him $8 million, have him read the script.”

It appears Mayweather is looking to keep himself busy to close the year out with reports suggesting he has already scheduled his next matchup against YouTube celebrity Deji on November 13^th.

Do you believe there is any truth to what Chael Sonnen is suggesting?
