Floyd Mayweather coming out of retirement to return to professional boxing after exhibition fight with Mike Tyson in April

Floyd Mayweather, who will turn 49 later this month, has announced he is coming out of retirement after his fight with Mike Tyson in April.

Following his exhibition bout with Tyson, Mayweather will resume his professional career with his first fight slated for summer 2026, with his opponent to be confirmed at a later date.

This will be Mayweather's fourth comeback from retirement, having previously retired in 2007, 2015 and most recently in 2017 after a fight with Conor McGregor. At the time, he had a 50-0 record.

"I still have what it takes to set more records in the sport of boxing - from my upcoming Mike Tyson event to my next professional fight afterwards - no one will generate a bigger gate, have a larger global broadcast audience and generate more money with each event - than my events," said Mayweather.

The 48-year-old American has signed with CSI Sports/Fight Sports.

In a professional boxing career that spanned three decades, Mayweather amassed an unblemished and unmatched record of 50 wins, no losses while taking on and decisively beating the very best of the era.

He is responsible for all three of the highest grossing boxing events in history - against Manny Pacquiao, McGregor and Canelo Alvarez.
