With limited boxing options on the table, Mayweather is considering heading over to the Ultimate Fighting Championship to sign a multi-fight deal with Conor McGregor’s handler Dana White.
Mayweather, who is now 40 years old, is never far from taking column inches regarding returning to the ring despite numerous retirements.
“You already know I’m a money-getting mother*****,” Mayweather said in a video posted on YouTube.
“I’m Money May. They just called me not too long ago and asked me to come back. I can come right back to the UFC.
“If I want, I can go, I can come right back to the UFC. I can go fight in the Octagon.
“I can do a three or four-fight deal in the Octagon and make a billion dollars. Remember, I’m Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather, and you mother****** love me, and I love you mother******.”
Whether there’s any truth in Mayweather’s intentions remains to be seen – but nobody can doubt that the American has the pulling power to make at least $250m per fight should he be unable to resist the 51st bout.
Wanheng Menayothin (49-0) closes on his perfect 50-0 record as WBC minimumweight champion.
Mayweather may well get itchy knuckles to fight again. However, the only way to stave off the Thai scrapper would be to trade blows in a boxing ring once again.
