Deji, who looked serious to secure a win in the early stages, absorbed body shots from the ex-lightweight champion, while understandably struggling to land his own punches.
Mayweather decided to entertain the fans at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai by dancing between the rounds, and even took the ring card girl’s job as he held up her placard for her.
He also walked over to Deji’s corner to calm him and the YouTuber’s trainer in a friendly manner.
But that did not stop the money man from punishing his opponent in round two and the subsequent rounds, landing devastating punches at will.
In round six, Mayweather turned on the gas and delivered a big uppercut and body shots on the YouTube star, forcing the referee to make a stoppage.
