Arguably, the boxing great Floyd Mayweather is another athlete whose charisma made him a household name like Jordan in recent decades. The name Mayweather is synonymous with modern-day boxing. He took the sport to another level and emerged as a center of attraction after names like Jordan and Tyson faded away from the active sport.

Recently, while talking about his upcoming documentary ‘The GOAT’, Mayweather had few words for the living phenomenon. He admired Jordan’s documentary, ‘The Last Dance’, and warned his fans of ‘a rude awakening’.

Speaking to TMZ Sports, ‘The Pretty Boy’ said, “Well, Michael Jordan is another great athlete and the last dance was unbelievable. You know, I can’t say, I can’t really say how great my documentary would be, but I think the people are in for a rude awakening. They’re gonna love it. And the last dance, I still love to watch it right now until this day.”

Notably, ‘The Last Dance’ is a mini-serious produced by Netflix and ESPN films that documented flashbacks of the biggest NBA star Michael Jordan and his team Chicago Bulls. Similar to this, Mayweather is also going to document a series named ‘The GOAT’ with the help of hundreds of hours of his videos. For this, ‘The Best Ever’ has collaborated with several Hollywood producers and billionaire businessman, Robert Smith.
