Floyd Mayweather Jr., the undefeated five-division world champion, has revealed plans to resume his professional boxing career nearly nine years after retirement. The 48-year-old last fought professionally in 2017, defeating Conor McGregor to finish with a perfect 50-0 record.
Since retiring, Mayweather has remained active through exhibition fights, including his most recent bout against John Gotti III in 2024. Now, he is preparing for a major exhibition match against Mike Tyson in Congo in April 2026.
Mayweather stated that he still has the ability to break records and generate massive global attention. His potential return to professional boxing is expected to create significant excitement in the boxing world, marking one of the most anticipated comebacks in recent years.
