The undefeated professional boxer Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather recently spoke at the Bitcoin 2021 conference in Miami and was booed while speaking on stage. Mayweather’s speech wasn’t appreciated by members of the crowd because he didn’t discuss bitcoin much and toward the end, Mayweather said he believes another crypto will be “just as large as bitcoin someday.”
Attendees at the Bitcoin 2021 Conference Disliked the Boxer’s Opinion
Boxing legend Floyd Mayweather has been a fan of digital currencies for a long time now, as the boxer has participated in an initial coin offering (ICO) and recently released non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles. Mayweather is preparing to have a boxing match with the Youtuber Logan Paul, and recently spoke at the Bitcoin 2021 conference in Miami.

During Mayweather’s talk on stage, he discussed how blockchain technology and things like NFTs are changing the game. The legendary boxer did not talk about bitcoin (BTC) much, even though the event organizers had tried to keep the conference “bitcoin only.”
In fact, the conference agenda notes that attendees should take altcoin discussions outside the event. However, the first day of the Bitcoin 2021 conference shows it was impossible to stop discussions concerning decentralized finance (defi) and topics like NFTs.
