Mayweather stated: "February 20th. We haven't yet chosen an opponent, but I look forward it and hopefully we give your guys something to watch."

After beating Conor McGregor (33), in a lucrative crossover bout, the American retired.

He has been back twice since then, first in an exhibition against featherweight kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa (23).

Logan Paul (26), a YouTuber, took him the distance in June. He weighed TWO STONE MORE.

Mayweather insists that his time in boxing was over - in professional and spectator capacities.

However, it seems that the sport's richest fighter has had a second thought and now plans to bring several events to the Middle East.

He stated, "One fight?" It is possible to do more than one fight.

"We want to entertain the people." It will involve more than one fight.

Mayweather previously disassociated himself from traditional boxing, and doubled down on the importance of this as entrainment rather than sport.

He stated, "Well, I don’t like to refer to what I’m doing as a fight. It's a limited-edition boxing showcase, which I prefer to call. Because it is more than boxing.

Mayweather has confirmed that his return to the arena will take place in front of a small audience, as is the case with the exhibition's unique setting.

He said, "It's going be a very unique crowd, not too few people."

"So, if this is your chance, you should know that you are very, very special to be here."
