A big fight name in Japan has moved to professional boxing and has broken Floyd Mayweather’s record across all combat sports.
Tenshin Nasukawa is a huge name in the world of MMA and kickboxing in Japan but now he’s already 4-0 as a professional boxer with two knockouts.
Mayweather’s win over Tenshin was in an exhibition a couple of years ago so it is not listed on his official record in boxing or anywhere, to be clear.
The 25-year-old Southpaw went 4-0 in pro boxing in impressive fashion this weekend against Jonathan Rodriguez in Japan:
Very impressive.
