Legendary former boxer Floyd Mayweather will return to the ring at the age of 44 and have a showdown against YouTube star Logan Paul.
The two will meet on June 6 at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, after the fight that was supposed to take place between them in February was apparently postponed due to the desire to bring in an audience.
At present the technical details of the battle are not yet known as to how many rounds will be included, but according to the organizers' press release more details will be released soon.

Mayweather finished his career with a crazy 0:50 balance, 27 by knockout, and retired after defeating MMA fighter Conor McGregor in 2017 in a boxing match.
Since then he has managed to return to a showdown in December 2018 against the Japanese Oyukosha whom he won by knockout.
The American was crowned world champion by five professional boxing organizations and won ten championships.
His opponent will be 26-year-old Logan Paul (1: 0 balance), who in his only fight of his career lost to YouTube star KSI in a referee decision split in November 2019. Logan is the big brother of YouTuber Jake Paul who recently defeated Ben Askren by knockout in the first round and basketball ex. Hapoel Tel Aviv Nate Robinson.
