‘Normally I’m used to sparring people more technically’: Deji makes bizarre claim after being stopped in the sixth round of his exhibition against Floyd Mayweather… while revealing what ‘Money’ said during the fight

Deji has bizarrely claimed that he is “accustomed to sparring people more technically” after being stopped by Floyd Mayweather in the sixth round of their demonstration match on Sunday.

The YouTuber – whose real name is Oladeji Olatunji – entered the match with a losing record of 1-3, revealing beforehand that his only goal was to get a shot – which he accomplished, with visible marking under Mayweather’s left eye .

But in the end, the 25-year-old was completely outclassed by Mayweather, who didn’t take the fight seriously from first to last, routinely danced between rounds and interacted with Deji’s team all the time.

Mayweather, whose estate was secured well before his retirement in 2017, which saw professional football win 15 world titles in five weight divisions following his win over Conor McGregor, added another reported £28million to his bank account for his troubles.

The 45-year-old admitted beforehand that the fight was purely for ‘a show’, and he did so from the first bell, running his hands at his sides, hopping around the ring and even joining in to a chant of ‘come on! Deji’ from the audience in Dubai.

Deji, who called out pop stars Justin Bieber and Liam Payne post-exhibition after the bout admitted Mayweather didn’t even fight like a boxer, was his lack of concern about any setbacks that may come his way.

“I mean, it was very unorthodox,” he said, as per… Seconds Off. ‘Normally I’m used to sparring people who are a bit more technical.

“He was just having fun there and doing whatever. He talked a lot.’

Deji explained exactly what Mayweather – who regularly spoke to members of his team during the fight – said to him in the ring.

‘I’m Money Mayweather; I do what I do,” said the 25-year-old YouTuber.

Mayweather said after the fight that he was happy that Deji had landed his shot, saying, “I’m glad Deji landed a good shot.

“This is part of fighting, this is part of entertaining. Everyone wanted to see entertainment and that’s what we have tonight.

“I always want you to chase your dreams and what you believe in. I didn’t get to where I came overnight. I had a great time, I couldn’t do it myself. Deji, you’re a tough competitor, I’m proud of you, keep it up.’

The 45-year-old at his post-fight press conference then laughed off the eye injury he sustained and said: “That’s cool, we had fun tonight. You wanted to see something small. I had to close the gap and if you close the gap, that’s what will happen.’

Earlier in the evening, Tommy Fury went the full six rounds in his exhibition game against Rolly Lambert after his professional match against Paul Bamba was called off at the last minute.
