Solange Knowles to take on Floyd Mayweather
Beyonceâs sister Solange has been offered a lucrative unification fight against undefeated Floyd Mayweather following her impressive debut against Jay Z. Solange Knowles is a relative newcomer to the fight game, but video clips of her first bout with rapper Jay Z have left fight fans around the world keen to see her in a primetime bout. Boxing fan Simon Williams told us, âIâve only seen the brief highlights, but sheâs got the desire, definitely. I really believed she wanted to rip Jay Zâs head off in that clip.â âJay Z is bigger than her, stronger than her â and he has a bouncer â yet she still went at him furiously the whole time they were in there.â âI love that in a fighter, never knowing when theyâre beaten. I think sheâd give Mayweather a run for his money, sure.â âThough Iâd have to see generous odds to back her, as Iâm not sure sheâs be allowed to kick shoes in his direction.â Should the bout against Mayweather not go ahead, Solange is not short of offers for her endorsement from fight clubs and boxing gyms around the country. As one gym owner told us, âWeâre always looking to recruit more female members, and sheâs got probably the most famous right-hook in the business right now.â âWeâve got sparring pads with Jay Zâs face on them, so anytime she wants to come down here and show us a few things, weâll be ready.â âAssuming she hasnât killed him by then, obviously.â
