Last week, Floyd Mayweather shocked the world when he announced he would be coming out of retirement to face off against 20-year-old phenom Tenshin Nasukawa in a special rules bout at Rizin’s New Year’s Eve show. The speculation about what those “special rules” might be didn’t last long though as just a few days later, Mayweather shot down the fight, saying the he was mislead to believe it would be a small, private exhibition match and that he never agreed to any kind of official bout. Of course now, speculation is running rampant about whether Mayweather was duped or whether he thought better of taking on Nasukawa upon actually seeing him fight.
