Floyd Mayweather Takes Weak Swipe At Ronda Rousey, Rousey D.N.B Shirt, UFC Fight Night Weigh Ins

While on ESPN this week, Mayweather addressed Rousey, and the jabs she's taken at him in the past. Mayweather deflected criticism in regards to domestic abuse by bragging about how much money he's made.

"A while back I didn't know who Ronda Rousey was, so I'm pretty sure she got upset. I want to say congratulations to Ronda Rousey and the UFC," Mayweather said. "You guys have done a tremendous job and I've won probably six or seven ESPYS for Fighter of the Year. And I truly believe she deserves it. Congratulations to Ronda Rousey. I've yet to see any MMA fighter, or other boxer, make over $300 million in 36 minutes," Mayweather said. "When she can do that, then call me."

For what it's worth, only three of Rousey's fights have went longer than 66 seconds. The UFC responded accordingly with the following tweet:

- Speaking of Rousey her new "Don't be a D.N.B" shirt has exploded in sales, reaching over 17,500 in the first 24 hours. A portion of proceeds for the shirt, which you can see below, go to Didi Hirsch 501c3 for their work in mental health services. You can also see Rousey's unique explanation of what a "D.N.B" is in the video below.
