Flamboyant boxer, Floyd Mayweather insist he is finished with boxing and has no plans to return out of retirement.

Moreover, there are suggestions that Mayweather, who beat Conor McGregor in his last fight in 2017, may return to the ring to take on Adrien Broner.

Nonetheless, Mayweather dismissed the claims, saying he does not wish to face fighters who ‘sell-out little arenas’.

Mayweather told Fight Hype: ‘These are just rumours. I am finished with boxing. I stay in shape.

Would I fight with McGregor? People make $370million. I make that in a single night. I made over $320m twice. It only took me 36 minutes or 28 minutes, something like that.

‘If this man [Broner] desires to fight Floyd I say ‘you guys sell out little arenas and do some little baby moves, not bad, however I am older and a lot wiser. Which means I do not wish to end up like my uncle Rog. Lots of fighters do not know when to surrender.

‘Even the fight with McGregor it was smart on my behalf and smart on his behalf. Above all, I can earn more money than any other fighter.’

He later admitted that he may think about return to boxing for leisure and it should be towards a boxer who sells out large arenas.

However, ‘Even if we did it once more it is entertainment and it is business. I am done, I am retired and I love my life. I enjoy being retired. If I see an opportunity and have a little fun and make $600million – why not.

‘If I was to come back why would I fight a fighter that only sells out little cities?’.

In his whole profession, Mayweather has taken part in 50 fights, winning all of them. He’s one of many best boxers having received 15 major world titles.
