In a long post on Instagram, full of expletives, McGregor provoked Mayweather for the clothes he wore at the press conference in Japan and even the choice of his rival, an athlete just 20 years old.
“Is that a running suit or a sauna suit, Floyd haha because. Is it hot in Tokyo or what the hell is going on there? These climate changes are no joke haha What the f*** is going on here? Who is this stupid kid with you? This is very crazy. It looks like something from the movie 'Rush Hour' or something. Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan are back! Brilliant as hell. You are a crazy bastard, Floyd,” McGregor wrote.
The fight
The fight between Floyd Mayweather and Tenshin Nasukawa will be the main attraction of Rizin 14, an event that takes place on December 31st at the Saitama Super Arena, in Japan. The fight should be the first fight for the multi-time boxing champion in another sport. However, it seems that the fight should not be held according to traditional MMA rules and may contain some restrictions on strikes. The Japanese organization promised to release the 'special rules' in the coming days.
