Floyd Mayweather wants to squash the beef between himself and Ronda Rousey

Touching gloves

Is Floyd Mayweather actually taking the high road?

It would seem that the multi-division champion has had enough of the back-and-forth with Ronda Rousey and wants to let bygones be bygones.

The pair of fighters have exchanged barbs over the last few weeks with Rousey quipping “I wonder how Floyd feels being beaten by a woman for once,” after beating Money to the ‘Best Fighter’ honour at the ESPYs.

Mayweather fired back, saying “I’ve yet to see any MMA fighter, or other boxer, make over $300 million in 36 minutes. When she can do that, then call me.”

But the 48-0 boxer seems to want to bring an end to the rivalry as he has offered his well-wishes to Rowdy.

“Like I said before, I don’t really know too much about Ronda Rousey…

“I didn’t know who she was, you know? I wish her nothing but the best. Good luck with everything.”
