But a shock addition has seen his security man Ray “Jizzy Mack” Sadeghi added to the undercard.

Sadeghi is set to face Koji “Kouzi” Tanaka in an open-weight stand-up bout.

Tanaka called for the fight after Sadeghi pushed Asakura during a stare down with Mayweather to promote their exhibition.

And RIZIN, who are promoting the event at the Saitama Super Arena, confirmed the striking match has been set.

That is despite Sadeghi usually weighing over 14 stone, while Kouzi campaigns at 9st 9lb, meaning he is giving away almost FIVE STONE.

Mayweather, 45, has boxed in three exhibitions since retiring in 2017 after beating ex-UFC champion Conor McGregor, 34.

They came against featherweight kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa, 23, YouTuber Logan Paul, 27, and ex-sparring partner Don Moore.

His three-round bout with Asakura, 29, will be Mayweather’s latest cameo in the ring.
