Asakura currently fights in the Rizin Fighting Federation and has a record of 10-2 with the promotion. 'Money' was able to defeat his opponent via a second-round TKO, and MMA journalist Chamatkar Sandhu took to Twitter to post a clip of the fight-ending highlight.

The knockout blow appears to partially land around the ear area, which the Twitterverse has deemed to be non-concussive. Twitter user @BcaseyMMA replied to Sandhu's tweet expressing his displeasure with the bout: "Excuse me while I put on my shocked face... what a load of sh*te" bobby casey@BcaseyMMA@SandhuMMA Excuse me while I put on my shocked face.....what a load of shite1@SandhuMMA Excuse me while I put on my shocked face.....what a load of shite This_Link_is_Dead@ErthboundMisft@SandhuMMA @arielhelwani I don't even think he connected with that right hand.

That’s a legit knockout Floyd Mayweather wants to fight Conor McGregor again in 2023 Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor was a groundbreaking event. The biggest star in mixed martial arts at the time taking on arguably the best boxer of all time in a boxing match attracted eyes from all corners of the globe. Everyone tuned in to see if McGregor could do the impossible. Fans wanted to see if the Irishman could do what Mayweather's opponents had failed to achieve in the American's 49 previous bouts. Fortunately for the American, he was able to TKO McGregor late in the fight. However, it seems that Mayweather would like to give the 'The Notorious' a second bite at the cherry, after stating to TMZSports that he wants to fight the Irishman next year. "I'm not mistaken Conor still has a few problems with his leg. So if it's going to happen, it's going to happen in 2023 and not 2022. This year I have an exhibition, this Saturday, and then after that in November I have another exhibition in Dubai. Then hopefully me and Conor McGregor can lock up in 2023, in a real fight actually." Watch the video below from 1:30: Floyd Mayweather is willing to put his perfect 50-0 record on the line against McGregor and isn't interested in an exhibition bout with the Irishman. However, 'The Notorious' hasn't shown much interest in the rematch. Poll : 0 votes Edited by Allan Mathew × Feedback Thank You!
