Pound for pound best in the world, Floyd Mayweather, will be traveling to the United Kingdom and Europe this October, the fighter has announced.
The 38-year-old is retiring from boxing on September 12 following the completion of his Showtime contract against Andre Berto. He will then head across the Atlantic within weeks of hanging up his gloves.
‘Money’ will be taking in eight cities in Great Britain before heading to France and Belgium in his post-career tour. The excursion will see Mayweather appear in London, Manchester, Paris, and Glasgow, among other stops.
Mayweather is widely regarded as the greatest fighter of his generation, having defeated the likes of Oscar De La Hoya, Canelo Alvarez, Miguel Cotto, and, more recently, arch-rival Manny Pacquiao during a stellar career.
Mayweather, the current WBC and WBA champion at 147 and 154lbs, will undoubtedly be taking his massive entourage with him. The five-weight world title holder allows European fans to see him in retirement.
More details of the trip will be announced by Mayweather Promotions soon. Mayweather assured fans he won’t be returning to the boxing ring anytime shortly.
