The legend of boxing, Floyd “Money” Mayweather, recently was seen hitting the Mitts in a video. It was taken at the Mayweather Boxing plus Fitness center in Porter Ranch, California. Floyd Mayweather is preparing for his next exhibition match on February 28 in the United Kingdom. His last exhibition match was against Deji, who is a Youtuber, and now he will be fighting his next opponent, Aaron Chalmers who is a retired boxer and a Mixed Martial artist. In the recent Youtube video uploaded by FightHype.com, Mayweather is going hard on those mitts.

The fans are impressed by his movements, and agility at the age of 45. Some fans even felt that he didn’t even look his age, instead, he looked younger working on those mitts. It is still a great pleasure for all the fans to witness a boxing legend working hard like that. Fans are mostly impressed by the works of Floyd Mayweather, except some of the days when fans love trolling him too. Like a few days ago, Floyd Mayweather couldn’t catch a break as fans continued trolling his outfit.
