AFTER MIKE TYSON EXHIBITION, SIGNS EXCLUSIVE DEAL WITH CSI SPORTS™/FIGHT SPORTS®

One of the World’s Most Renowned Athletes, the Undefeated Global Star

Set for His Return to Professional Boxing Following the Upcoming Exhibition versus Mike Tyson

NEW YORK (February 20, 2026)—In a blockbuster development, global superstar and undefeated 50-0 boxing legend Floyd “Money” Mayweather has officially announced that he is coming out of retirement after his Spring 2026 Mike Tyson exhibition and has signed an exclusive agreement with CSI Sports™/FIGHT SPORTS® to resume his professional boxing career.

The move marks one of the most anticipated comebacks in recent memory. Mayweather will first step back into the global spotlight in a special exhibition in Spring 2026 against fellow icon Tyson, as previously announced. Following that matchup, Mayweather will resume his professional career under the CSI Sports™/FIGHT SPORTS® banner, with his first official bout slated for Summer 2026 against an opponent to be announced. His last professional bout was in 2017 versus UFC global star Conor McGregor.

“I still have what it takes to set more records in the sport of boxing - from my upcoming Mike Tyson event to my next professional fight afterwards - no one will generate a bigger gate, have a larger global broadcast audience and generate more money with each event – then my events. And I plan to keep doing it with my global media partner, CSI Sports™/FIGHT SPORTS®,” said Mayweather.

“Signing Floyd Mayweather to un-retire after he captures another world-wide audience with his Mike Tyson match-up, highlights our commitment to providing our global audience with the most high-profile fighters in the sport. Floyd will once again continue to dominate boxing with the biggest audience and highest gross events of all time, and we are proud and privileged to be able to do with our global team at CSI Sports™/FIGHT SPORTS®. We look forward to even more announcements that will excite fans and continue to build the sport in 2026!” said Richard and Craig Miele, co-founders of CSI Sports™/FIGHT SPORTS®.

In a professional boxing career that spanned three decades, Mayweather is known for his impeccable defensive skills, speed and strategic ring generalship. He has expertly managed a remarkable career, amassing an unblemished and unmatched record of 50 wins, no losses while taking on and decisively beating the very best of the era. He is responsible for all three of the highest grossing boxing events in history—vs. Manny Pacquiao, vs. Connor McGregor and vs. Canelo Alvarez—and has earned well over $1B in professional prize fighting alone. Mayweather has remained a prominent figure in the sport even after his official retirement with his unmatched and unprecedented record of 50 wins, no losses.

CSI Sports™/FIGHT SPORTS® exclusive deal with Mayweather positions the company at the forefront of major global sports events, reinforcing its commitment to delivering marquee events and historic matchups to fans worldwide.

Additional details, including event dates, broadcast information, and the professional opponent for Mayweather’s first sanctioned return will be announced in the coming weeks.
