IShowSpeed, a well-known Twitch personality famous for his outrageous challenges, is now looking to challenge boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr..
After taking on different sports icons like sprinter Noah Lyles, WWE’s Randy Orton, and boxing champion Manny Pacquiao, IShowSpeed has set his sights on an exhibition match with the undefeated boxing great.
In a recent chat with NFL star Shannon Sharpe, IShowSpeed talked about the idea of going up against Mayweather. When prompted about facing the iconic boxer, he answered emphatically,
“Yes.”
He went on to express his admiration for Manny Pacquiao, stating, “I think Pacquiao is the greatest of all time… I favor Pacquiao over Floyd.”
Even with his respect for Pacquiao, IShowSpeed was eager about the possibility of matching up with Mayweather. Sharpe encouraged Mayweather to make the bout happen.
“Floyd, make it happen,” Sharpe insisted, as IShowSpeed issued a bold challenge.
“Floyd, listen up! You wouldn’t want to miss this challenge. I’m ready in six months, let’s go,” he called out.

IShowSpeed was adamant about being prepared if Mayweather’s team were to reach out.
“Absolutely,” he affirmed, mentioning how he has been excited for such an opportunity.
Sharpe brought up Mayweather’s past exhibition match with Logan Paul, hinting that maybe Floyd could entertain IShowSpeed‘s challenge.
However, IShowSpeed questioned whether Mayweather would accept, suggesting he might be “scared” to face him.
