När Floyd Mayweather Jr begav sig till ringen för att möta UFCs lättviktsmästare Conor McGregor i en boxningsmatch hade han på sig en balaklava/skidmask över ansiktet, en liten detalj som många lade märke till men som snabbt glömdes bort när matchen kom igång.
”Det var en riktig kupp”
Nu har dock boxningstränaren Angelo Reyes, en vän till Mayweather, berättat för MMAnytts Damon Martin vad anledningen bakom masken var:
“To us in the boxing culture, we were kind of laughing about it because it’s Floyd Mayweather’s ode to the movie ‘Dead Presidents.’ Where he put the ski mask on because it’s a bank robbery,” sade Reyes under the Fight Society podcast.
“Basically he was saying it was a heist. Like Conor actually believed he could beat Floyd Mayweather and all that happened was he got fooled into the biggest pay-per-view, the biggest payday opportunity of all time.
“That’s why he put on the ski mask, which I thought was pretty awesome.”
“If you don’t know boxing, then you won’t understand why that was such an easy fight for Floyd.” sade Reyes sedan.
