During a professional match on April 30, Mayweather talked to Showtime and revealed that he’s considering coming out of retirement.
The real reason behind the potential return is the payday, he said. “As of right now, some crazy numbers have been thrown my way–upwards, of course, of nine figures,” he told Showtime, “but I’m truly blessed beyond belief, and I really don’t know what we’re going to do.”
After the boxer defeated Andre Berto in September 2015, he told news sources that would be his final fight. And he insisted that he would remain retired despite many fans’ cries for him to recant his decision. But it looks like he spoke a little too fast.
