Dana White: I Would Love to See Floyd Mayweather Retire

Recently, after Floyd was unable to knock Paul down, The UFC CEO Dana White has made a statement “I would love to see Floyd retire” in an interview with the ATZ network.

It is to be mentioned that, even though Floyd was unable to knock Paul down he was always in a driver’s seat throughout the match. Having said that, Money and Maverick fought a spectacular fight with Logan Paul showing signs of a skilled boxer.

The complication with a fighter like Mayweather is if he’s too dominant, fans’ interest will decline. Even at one point, it seemed the undefeated former five-division world champion connected a knockout blow to Logan but it appeared like he helped him stay on his feet and kept the bout going.
