Floyd Mayweather didn’t let Aaron Chalmers spoil his birthday.
The boxing legend made easy work of Chalmers in their eight-round exhibition bout at O2 Arena in London on Saturday. Although there was no winner in the fight, Mayweather was clearly 46, the reality television star.
For the duration of the 16-minute bout, Mayweather utilized his famous jab to punish Chalmers, popping his head back multiple times and preventing the Englishman from generating any significant offense. Chalmers was able to continue his advance during the fight but was constantly met with harsh jabs and body shots as well as on-point counters.
Both fighters were all smiles throughout the matchup, but it was Mayweather who had the most fun as he danced with a ring girl between rounds, jawed at Chalmers and the onlookers at ringside, and even sat on the ropes during one mid-fight break. Mayweather’s advantage in the hypothetical card contest only grew as he circled the ring and picked Chalmers apart.
Afterward, Mayweather expressed his gratitude to the U.K. fans and said it is becoming “the mecca of boxing.” Praising Chalmers, he called the former Bellator MMA fighter “tough as nails.”
Mayweather was asked whether he would fight again in the U.K., and he replied, “If my fans want me back .”
.”
Chalmers stated in his post-fight interview, that he hopes the high-profile fight with Mayweather will keep him in contact with Jake Paul and KSI.
