On November 13th, Floyd Mayweather will square off against YouTuber Deji in his fifth exhibition fight. Deji,25, has had only 4 fights in the community of YouTube boxing. His record comprises 3 losses and only 1 win. With this record in boxing, Deji will face one of the best fighters the world of boxing has ever seen. Prior to the November 13th fight, Mayweather, on being told that the fight was a walk in a park for him, exposed that he never saw a Deji fight.

However, is Mayweather overlooking it? He replied negatively. According to his statement, Mayweather never watched the tapes of any of his opponent’s fights. However, it did not mean that he overlooked them or their ability to fight. He said, “One thing about me, we never overlook anyone. He wanna go out and display his skills. Have I ever seen him fight? Absolutely not. But you can never overlook anyone. Throughout my career, I never watched tapes of my opponents.”
