Floyd Mayweather teases fans with boxing comeback in 2020
Floyd Mayweather Jr announces he will come out of retirement in 2020
Floyd Mayweather has sensationally confirmed he is set to come out of retirement once again in 2020.
The 42-year-old American has not fought since defeating Conor McGregor in August 2017. In doing so, Mayweather broke Rocky Marciano's 49-0 record.
A rematch with the Irishman, possibly under UFC rules, has long been touted, as have traditional ring returns against a number of opponents including Manny Pacquiao.
In an Instagram post, Mayweather – a five-weight world champion – simply said: “Coming out of retirement in 2020”.
'TBE' also revealed he'll be working alongside UFC boss Dana White, which has led to suggestions as to whether Mayweather may dip his toes into life on the other side of combat sports in the cage.
