Money Kicks goes silent about the Floyd Mayweather bout

There was no definite reason as to why the bout was called off. This led many fans to wonder why the match was canceled. The issue was addressed by a reporter who talked with the Youtuber recently and asked him about the event getting canceled. However, Belhasa refused to disclose the details of this as he dismissed the question.” If I wrote a book cause it’s going to be on that. It’s behind the scenes stuff,” he said, trying to dodge the question. The reporter also did not press him too much on the issue and thus, this still remains a mystery.
