Boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather is making a highly anticipated return to the professional ring this summer, nine years after retiring with an undefeated record of 50-0 and 27 knockouts. The 49-year-old legend, known for his defensive mastery and lightning-fast hands, announced the comeback under a promotional deal with CSI Sports/Fight Sports, signaling a major event for fans and the boxing world alike.
Mayweather last fought professionally in 2017 against Conor McGregor before declaring retirement. Since then, he has stayed active through lucrative exhibition bouts against Logan Paul, YouTuber Mikuru Asakura, and John Gotti III. A special exhibition against former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson is also planned for this spring, although details about location and broadcast partners have not yet been revealed.
