Boxing Legend Mayweather Launching NFTs Later This Month
- Boxing legend Mayweather is set to launch one-of-a-kind NFTs.
- IronBend, Reality Gaming, and Zytara labs are teaming up for the launch.
- The NFTs will drop on May 26, secured by blockchain technology.
The exclusive collection will honor Mayweather’s career legacy and his unbeaten record. In addition, the release is a combined venture between IronBend, Reality Gaming Group, and Zytara Labs. Although they haven’t shared which online platform will host the NFTs, a release date of May 26 has been announced.
Die-hard Mayweather fans from around the world are in for quite a treat. The collection will consist of 5 one-of-a-kind pieces including artwork, digital memorabilia, and videos. What adds to the hype for the release of his first-ever NFTs is his return from retirement soon after. Mayweather will face Youtuber Logan Paul for a special exhibition boxing match.
About the NFT drop, Mayweather said: “I started from nothing and beat all the odds to achieve what I did in my career and I think that’s the American dream. I don’t look at myself as a celebrity – I look at myself as an l icon, one who made it. My name will always live on for the things that I did and the mark that I left in sports. These digital collectibles give everyone a chance to be part of the Mayweather Legacy.”
“Right now, my career is over, but my name will always live on for the things that I did and for the legacy that I left and the mark that I left in sports,” he added
Moreover, blockchain technology will take care of securing and protecting the valuable NFTs.
