Twitter goes crazy after recent KSI-Floyd Mayweather tag-team news
Floyd Mayweather recently has not slowed down with his boxing bouts despite calling retirement from his professional career. The legendary boxer has gone on to fight in several exhibition bouts claiming to make fortunes out of it. Mayweather has now fought KSI’s brother Deji and also PRIME business partner, Logan Paul.
The YouTube X Boxing crossovers have now become mainstream. Very recently Jake Paul, who started off as a YouTube boxer recently fought Tommy Fury, a professional boxer. There is no doubt that many eyes would turn towards the sport of boxing if the tag-team match materializes.
Ngl, this is actually kind of exciting. Let's just make boxing crazy 🔥
