- Background: He’s back already. Mayweather stopped mixed martial artist Mikuru Asakura on Sept. 25 in Japan, his third exhibition since he last took part in a sanctioned bout in 2017. He returns Sunday in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where he’ll face British YouTuber-turned-boxer Deji. The brother of KSI has taken part in one exhibition, a knockout victory over fellow YouTuber Fousey in August. That makes him Mayweather’s second raw amateur opponent. He “fought” Logan Paul in June of last year. The Hall Famer also faced Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in 2018 and former sparring partner Don Moore this past May. His last sanctioned bout was in 2017, when he stopped Conor McGregor.
