Floyd Mayweather Jr. says he’s not going to be making a comeback, but he will be doing more lucrative exhibition matches from time to time. The 42-year-old Mayweather states that he wants to protect his health and for that reason he won’t be returning to resume his career.
“I’ve got calls to get back into the ring, but my health is my wealth,” said Mayweather via skysports.com. “Boxing is a very, very brutal sport. In the last few years a lot of fighters have died inside that squared circle,” said Mayweather.
Mayweather last fought two years ago in defeating UFC star Conor McGregor by a 10th round knockout in a boxing match on August 26, 2017 in Las Vegas (USA). At 40, Mayweather looked slow, rusty and not nearly the same fighter he was two years earlier. Bacj then he got Andre Berto in an easy 12 round unanimous decision.
