“I’m Doing a Couple of Exhibitions” – Floyd Mayweather Announces Huge News for the Fans

In a recent Instagram live, legendary boxer Floyd Mayweather announced his return to the ring.

Mayweather has had an amazing career. The American outclassed almost all of his opponents and retired at the top. After racking up 49 victories over world-class athletes, he called it quits. However, when Conor McGregor came knocking at the door, the opportunity was too good for Mayweather to turn down.

At 40 years of age, Mayweather came out of retirement. The duo collided in 2017. Unsurprisingly, the American boxer stopped the debuting Irishman inside 10 rounds. And earned an estimated fortune of $300 million in that fight alone.

Floyd was not done yet. He returned to the ring to compete against Tenshin Nasukawa—Japanese mixed martial artist and kickboxer—in an exhibition match. Once again, Floyd destroyed the young Nasukawa in the very first round. This was “Money’s” last appearance inside the squared circle.

Floyd Mayweather is gearing up for a return

In a conversation with Zab Judah on Instagram, Mayweather revealed that he will be fighting in exhibition matches soon. Furthermore, Floyd said that the events will take place overseas. And he will be highly paid to take part in them.

“I got a couple of exhibitions I’m doing. I got a couple of exhibitions, I’m doing little exhibitions overseas. It’s paying though,” Mayweather said. (Transcript via talkSPORT)

The 43-year-old boxer was seen handling business with Dana White in the middle of an NBA game in 2019. Based on White’s statements, it seems like both men have reached an agreement. The UFC juggernaut announced that he has struck a deal with Floyd.

Additionally, Mayweather reiterated his intentions to return to the ring when he commented on Conor McGregor’s retirement post.

“If I’m not mistaken, didn’t you tell Mike Tyson you could beat me if we fought a second time? Now you’re quitting! I thought you wanted to beat the best? Well, if you decide to come back, I will be waiting to punish you again,” Mayweather wrote.
