Videos: Nikki Bascome Working With Mayweather
Professional boxer Nikki Bascome has been training with Jeff Mayweather in Las Vegas in advance of his IBA International Welterweight fight against Mexico’s David Martinez, which is set to take place on Saturday, 24 November at the Fairmont Southampton.
“One thing when Nicky he’s got power in both hands, good skills and good movement,” Mr Mayweather said. “The thing that I told him that he needs to work on the defense, and that is the only thing that he lacks.”
“I think he has potential to be champion one day. You know basically it’s just a matter of getting that opportunity, is one thing, and being ready for it,” said Mr Mayweather, who is a former boxing champion and a member of the famed Mayweather boxing family.
“He has a vicious left hook, I surely don’t want to get by it, and I don’t think too many people want to be hit by it, so I think that’s the best weapon and I think that he can hit and hurt anyone in his weight division.”
Well done Nikki, all the best.
