Idiots are reaching saying that Floyd got in trouble with Japanese "mobsters" lol I can tell the average American ain't got a clue what a Yakuza is and clearly, they've been watching exaggerated documentaries or films on Yakuza. You got dudes youtube talking shyt as if they know stuff that Floyd got mobbed up. Yakuza barley even get into it with gaijin at best if the case that Floyd crossed one of the families his Japanese business partners will get affected and will terminate any partnership with Floyd. Yakuza ain't some psycho ass lawless mobsters like their European or South American counterparts.

You are naive......Floyd and his bodyguard entourage is tough enough to cancel a fight in Japan if he wants.....The boy feared his life and waited until he stepped foot on us soil to cancel this mess.....Floyd would've said more than a Instagram post after being embarrassed and made to look like a punk, if other shyt didnt happen.....First question a good interviewer should ask Floyd is why he waited to step foot in the US to cancel the fight.....


Truth be told I dont know why Floyd would flirt with his perfect record overseas; is the boy not dumb enough to know he aint beating Manny Pacquaio or no other china boy in no fukking Japan, unless he wears ggg gloves....I think the boy getting high(poot voice):francis:

They are to different from Western organised mob but that doesn't mean they don't run Japan. Different but IMO much more powerful and organised. My 2 cts.

But still I don't think Floyd had problems with them. Imo this is just a wise promo op. For everybody involved. And I'm a May fan 100.

According to Fight Hype, Rizin was leveraging Floyd's name and promising additional fights with Floyd when they were discussing TV contracts, and Floyd never agreed to anything besides a one-off.

Yakuza aren't even as powerful as they once were in Japan apparently. They are basically like the Italian mob in the US now, a shadow of their former self due to Japan's version of federal investigations etc.
It's lowkey racist to even assume Yakuza was involved in this at all, not even sure where people even getting that from.

Interesting point, I've been reading that they have slowly been crumbling due to new laws. Dudes running them asinine claims came up with shyt was because Floyd didn't act like his usual self in the press, but people need to realize that Floyd may have had jet lag and didn't properly adapt to the extreme time zone differences.
