This fight with Asakura was Mayweather’s second fight in Japan. The first time when he fought in Saitama Super, the fight did not last one complete round. Although Asakura survived a whole round, ‘May’ still dropped him before round no. 3.

Another commented by saying, “I’m sure most of y’all might think that Floyd didn’t hit him but if you take the time to watch it properly, you’ll see that was a fastest punch ever! He hit in the neck and the guy he couldn’t breath property [properly] and that’s why by the time he stands up, the count was already over.”
