TMT Boxing Academy opens in Russia



Floyd Mayweather opens TMT Boxing Academy in Zhukovka, Russia.

The American boxing super star together with his team arrived in Russia on Wednesday morning. Floyd will be holding a training session and a press conference to some limited number of participants.

Tickets for the event, taking a photo with Mayweather and a pair of signed gloves costs 50 thousand rubles ($866).

This is just the beginning of their plan, as Timothy Kurgin, one of “Boxing Academy’s” shareholders, said that the team is planning to open at least three gyms in the region.

“We are going to open at least three gyms due 2017. A number can reach 20-30 in long term planning. They will be in every major city and regional center” – Timothy Kurgin

The boxing legend retired undefeated (49) in 2015 but announced last week during his Undefeated Tour in UK that he’ll be out of retirement just to fight Conor McGregor.


“I’m tired of you always crying about the money, you talking about you want to fight, you’re blowing smoke up everybody’s ass,” “If you want the fight, sign the contract.” – Floyd Mayweather
