Jake claimed he would give Mayweather a \u201cproper retirement\u201d if the two were to meet in the ring, and urged Showtime Sports executive Stephen Espinoza to make the fight happen. The 24th also saw Mayweather step into the ring for an exhibition match in Japan. And while there was no winner, Mayweather easily knocked out his \u201cno name\u201d opponent Mikuru Asakura.
