Floyd Mayweather Jr. is reportedly in talks to fight a known hip-hop star from Britain

It appears Floyd Mayweather Jr. is already plotting his next move in the world of celebrity boxing

As one of the most recognized faces on planet earth, retired boxer Floyd Mayweather makes the news with every move he makes. This is especially true if we are talking about a potential next fight for the 50-0 boxer. Ever since he returned to boxing in a retired capacity, Floyd fought Conor McGregor in one of the highest grossing fights ever and continued to fight another seven times. Amongst his most famous opponents, we have people like Logan Paul or John Gotti III. That most recent fight against Gotti endedin a brawl that almost turned into a tragedy. But it seems Floyd is searching for his next opponent in Great Britain, specifically a famous actor from the islands.

According to a recent interview conducted by boxing promoter Eddie Hearn, hip-hop artist Bugzy Malone whose name is Aaron Daniel Davis revealed he is currently in talks to fight against Mayweather. According to Malone, Floyd Mayweather Sr. was the one who spotted him in a workout video and suggested the potential fight to his son. The rapper was on Eddie Hearn’s ‘No Passion, No Point’ podcast to talk about many different things. He dropped the news and explained how the approach happened. Bugzy initially didn’t believe Floyd wanted to fight him because a supporter approached him to possibly do advertising through a private jet company.Mayweather reached out through this company. Bugzy then used a diss track to call out Floyd.

Here’s what Malone said: “Now, I’ve turned down a few boxing matches because a lot of what’s going on now in the boxing space is like the YouTube boxing thing. I’m not really interested in stepping into it, so I was like, ‘Ah, OK. Who’s your client?’ And he’s like, ‘Floyd Mayweather.’ Flipping changed the whole conversation. Before I even thought of, ‘Hold on, am I getting my head punched in there all night long?’ I just said, ‘Yeah.’ He said, ‘Floyd Sr likes your physique, he said you look strong.’ So then we start talking to them about the weight, like, ‘What do you want me to weigh on this night?’ And they’re like, ‘Yeah, you can come in heavier.’ And I thought, ‘Flipping heck, that gives me a puncher’s chance.’”
