Floyd Mayweather will return to boxing against Manny Pacquiao or when 'the right man gets in his face,' his father and namesake has claimed.

Mayweather, now 42, supposedly hung up his gloves for good after victory over Conor McGregor in August 2017. 

But he returned to the ring in December for an exhibition fight against Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa and has since been teasing a possible rematch with Pacquiao.
