Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and undefeated boxer Floyd Mayweather set to square off in an exhibition match once more.
Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather, two of the most iconic boxers in history, are set to face off in an exhibition match next year. CSI Sports, a renowned boxing production company, made the announcement recently.
Tyson, who came out of retirement for his clash with Youtuber Jake Paul last year, expressed surprise about the upcoming fight. He stated that it's something neither the world nor he ever thought would happen. The 59-year-old former heavyweight champion, who lost to Jake Paul in an eight-round bout in November 2024, struggled to keep up with the Youtuber's movement in their clash.
Mayweather, 48 years old and with a career spanning 50 fights, ending with a victory over MMA star Conor McGregor in 2017, believes that the exhibition will give the fans what they want. The undefeated boxer won world titles across five different weights.
Tyson, on the other hand, expressed doubt about Mayweather's health due to the upcoming fight. However, he also stated that the fight is as unpredictable as it gets. The former champion believes that the upcoming fight marks a new era of unpredictability in boxing.
The exact venue and date for the 2026 boxing match have not yet been announced. The organisers have revealed that the fight will take place in the spring, but the specific location remains undisclosed. Tyson signed the fight contract, indicating that it is officially happening.
Mayweather, known for his flamboyant style, stated that if he is going to do something, it will be big and legendary. The boxing legend seems to be eager to make this exhibition a spectacle for the fans.
The spectacle fight between Tyson and Paul last year ended with boos ringing out across the stadium, leaving many viewers disappointed. However, with the upcoming bout between Tyson and Mayweather, boxing fans are in for a treat. The unpredictability of the match, coupled with the legendary status of both fighters, promises an exciting event in the world of boxing.
