What a knockout pair! Sunderland AFC star Jermain Defoe meets boxing great Floyd Mayweather
They are both experts in punishing suspect defences - but in different sports.
But last night, Sunderland AFC hotshot Jermain Defoe and 15-times world champion boxer Floyd Mayweather made for a formidable sporting duo when they met up in the north east.
The pair posed for a photo in Livello, which was later tweeted by staff at the bar in Dean Street, Newcastle.
Mayweather was in the north east to meet fans at a question and answer session at the Lancastrian Suite in Gateshead.
