Former world champion Floyd Mayweather has announced he will come out of retirement for a fourth time later this year.

The 48-year-old, whose most recent retirement was in 2017, is due to face former undisputed world heavyweight champions Mike Tyson in an exhibition bout this spring.

But Mayweather has confirmed he will return to professional boxing for the first time in nine years after that fight.

While an opponent has not yet been announced, it will be Mayweather’s first professional fight since beating mixed martial arts fight Conor McGregor with a 10th-round technical knockout in 2017.

Mayweather won titles across five weight classes during his career, and his victory over McGregor secured his 50th professional win to remain undefeated.

“I still have what it takes to set more records in the sport of boxing,” Mayweather said in a statement.
