“Boxing’s a show, you know, it doesn’t know if it’s good or bad, for boxing it’s a show, it is what it is.”

“I think it’s awful, but you know that’s just my opinion,” he said.

Rodriguez is a super lightweight fighter who holds a professional record of 10 wins and 0 losses. The southpaw lashed out at the Mayweather vs Paul exhibition bout, citing it as ‘awful’.
