Floyd Mayweather targets two fights in 2020 after coming out of retirement… facing both a boxer and UFC star

FLOYD MAYWEATHER is targeting two fights next year in his comeback – wanting to face a boxer and UFC fighter.

The 42-year-old revealed on social media this week that he is “coming out of retirement in 2020” to work with UFC boss Dana White on a “spectacular event”.

And according to, Mayweather is plotting to face a boxer, with Manny Pacquiao reportedly being discussed, and then an MMA fighter.

It is claimed the American wants to compete in May and then September, a routine he stuck to from 2009-2015.

Mayweather is even said to be eyeing a fight at the new Raiders stadium in Las Vegas.

Since he outpointed Pacquiao in 2015, the pair have been going back and forth fuelling talks of a rematch.

And now Pacman is being advised by boxing mogul Al Haymon – who guided Mayweather throughout his world title career.

SunSport revealed Money even axed an exhibition bout in China to work on a rematch with current WBA welterweight champion Pacquiao.

Mayweather retired in 2017 after stopping UFC star Conor McGregor, but returned a year later in an exhibition bout demolishing kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in Tokyo.

Despite Money insisting he is only interested in exhibition bouts, it has been claimed the ex-PPV king is working to again fight another MMA star.

Khabib Nurmagomedov’s manager revealed UFC boss Dana White cancelled a boxing match between the lightweight champion and Mayweather in Saudi Arabia in January.

But Mayweather is keen to face a UFC fighter with good striking skills, and Nurmagomedov is known for his dominant grappling.

Southpaw puncher McGregor has demanded a second crack at Mayweather, after losing his ring debut by tenth round TKO.

And UFC welterweights Jorge Masvidal and Tyron Woodley recently expressed an interest in a boxing switch, calling out Mexican superstar Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez.
