Floyd Mayweather boasts of having all his ‘faculties’ aged 46 ahead of next exhibition against grandson of mob boss
FLOYD MAYWEATHER boasted of still having all his faculties intact as he prepares for another exhibition fight.

It will be Mayweather’s SEVENTH exhibition since officially retiring in 2017 after beating UFC superstar Conor McGregor, 34.
And the unbeaten Hall of Famer – who was never floored in his career – is reaping the rewards of his defensive style all these years later.
Mayweather said: “With an event like this, it’s truly amazing to still have all my faculties.
“The aim of the game is to hit and not get hit, that’s why I was able to be in the sport of boxing as a professional for 27 years.”
Mayweather has faced stars of the MMA, social media and celebrity boxing world since boxing in exhibition bouts.
His last came in February against reality TV favourite-turned fighter Aaron Chalmers, 36, at a near-empty O2 Arena in London.
And Gotti III – whose grandfather John Gotti ran the Gambino crime family in the late 80s and 90s – will be the next to face Mayweather.
The 30-year-old is a 5-1 MMA fighter and 2-0 boxer who brings an army of fans from New York to Florida.

But Mayweather said: “Remember, I’ve fought all around the world, every country I’ve fought in.
“Remember this, when we get in the ring it’s up to the two fighters. It has nothing to do with crowd.
“They can scream, they can holla, they can shout. This is what I do at the end of the day.
“I don’t have to brag, I don’t have to boast, I don’t have to tell you what I can do, the world knows what I can do.
“So he has to show the world what he can do.”
