Woodley revealed to “Hollywood Beatdown” that he met Mayweather during a basketball event in the United States, and they have already scheduled training. The welterweight champion, who is based on the game of wrestling, couldn't hide his excitement at seeing 'Money' in the Octagon.
“I saw him (Mayweahter) at NBA All-Star week. We started talking about training MMA and decided to keep in touch. Let's meet in Vegas and do some training to get you ready for MMA. Floyd is one of the best strikers of all time. There are a lot of guys in the UFC who can't grapple and consider themselves to be fighting on the feet and will have to stay on the feet against one of the biggest strikers of history. They will enter a world of smoke,” she said.
