It was recently announced by UFC President Dana White and Floyd Mayweather that they will come together for a “spectacular event” next year.
Mayweather reportedly wants a rematch with Manny Pacquiao and a bout against a UFC fighter, which is something Floyd Mayweather Sr. had no idea about.
“We usually talk but I ain’t heard nothing from him,” Mayweather Sr. told Marcos Villegas of FightHub TV (via Ryan Harkness of MMA Mania). “It’s a big surprise to me. I don’t want … it ain’t the same. It’s not the same, I’m just saying.”
There have been reports in the past that Mayweather may try his hand at MMA, but nothing ever came to fruition.
Mayweather Sr. says that if White attempts to get Mayweather into MMA, a beating could be coming his way.
“You got things that Floyd can do, a lot of other things other than … and they said he was saying something about getting into that … what that thing called? It better not be the MMA. You don’t think Floyd would take nothing like that? I don’t think he’d take it either because I’d go in there and whoop Dana White’s ass! F—k yeah I will. I’d whoop the sh-t out of him. Even though Floyd is a grown man, I’d be the grown one that’d take over that. Sure will,” Mayweather Sr. said.
White has yet to mention any MMA plans for the young Mayweather and if Mayweather Sr. is to be believed, it may not be a good idea for the UFC President to bring them up.
