Floyd Mayweather warned two streamers that there is a very good reason why he would not give them a blow during a recent video.
The legendary 50-0 boxer shared the ring with people like Manny Pacquiao, Ricky Hatton and Oscar de la Hoya, who never lose once. During that time, however, he was not known as a large puncher and he never fought higher than 156 pounds in his run.
As a result, there is a perception that an untrained fan can possibly take one of his punches to the body. And he had to remind some social media stars that they do not want to learn in the hard way that such a feeling is incorrect.
Floyd Mayweather refuses to hit the influencer with horrifying warning
During a recent kickstroom, model and influencer Marlon Lundgren Garcia succeeded in coming next to Floyd Mayweather during a promotional performance. In the first instance, the box icon seemed irritated by its presence, with a joke or 'situation' to come.
Once the security stated that Garcia was in order, Mayweather heard his offer to throw a body shot at the model. However, he quickly refused and informed him that he could not do it 'for a reason'.
Mayweather also noted that they were there “to sell a product, not a box”. However, they continued streaming and it seems to have done well for whatever product the boxer sold when the clip became viral.
Floyd Mayweather in conversations for fighting comeback against his greatest rival
Mayweather hung up his gloves after switching out Conor McGregor in 2017, and has never really entertained the idea of a comeback since then. He continued to participate in scoreless exhibition treatments, the most famous against Logan Paul and John Gotti III.

However, after he learned that Manny Pacquiao returned to the battle Mario Barrios for his welter weight world title at the age of 46 this year, reports emerged that Mayweather was considering a comeback.
Pacquiao eventually came within the centimeters of the victory when he pulled Barrios in Las Vegas, and the Mayweather interviews seem to have been delayed. But given their first meeting, the best -selling boxing match of all time was, the competition would be an important priority for promoters to make.
