Once in a recent interview with, REVOLT, Mayweather shed light on his boxing routine and how he did not up the ante. He stated that he actually wanted to put on a show and hence, he pushed the fight to the later rounds. He also stated that his motive was to book yet another bout with the MMA star and it compelled him to elongate the fight.

He said.,” You have to give the people a show, so I gave the people the show. I mean if I wanted to go out there f**k him up and blaze him, right out of the gate, I could have did that. So you know my thing is then there wouldn’t probably be a part 2.”
