Floyd Mayweather terrorized the boxing ring for over two decades since he turned pro in 1996. However, he retired in 2017 after defeating the UFC megastar Conor McGregor, but the effect of his action is still felt. Folks still consider the 45-year-old Olympic bronze medalist, a mighty fighter. The recent victim of Mayweather’s fear is Deji’s mother, Yinka.

She took to Twitter on October 24 and wrote, “I felt like Deji was put in the deep end with his last fight but with this one coming up in November??Lord have mercy. Deji’s going into the Lions Den.”

According to her, Mayweather is a lion and the boxing ring is his den.

As of now, the boxing ring is no den anymore for the 50-0 boxer. But there was a time before his retirement when he was reigning the boxing world. He defeated the likes of the boxing greats of the modern era like the Filipino legend Manny Pacquiao, the Mexican Icon Canelo Alvarez, Oscar Delhoiya aka ‘The Golden Boy, and many more. Mayweather outclassed more than the record 24 world champions.

This is the reason why Deji’s mother is concerned about her son, who is going to face the former five-weight division champ.
