Floyd Mayweather has revealed his plans for the coming months, including a second fight with MMA star Conor McGregor: "Me and Conor McGregor in 2023...We don't know if it's going to be an exhibition or a real fight. But there's been talks of both. I would prefer an exhibition."
"I want to go out there this weekend and have fun. Then I have another exhibition [in] Dubai in November and me and Conor McGregor in 2023," Mayweather told The Daily Mail.
"We don't know if it's going to be an exhibition or a real fight. But there's been talks of both. I would prefer an exhibition.
"I am not into fights where I am going to take any real punishment.
"So, guys like Conor McGregor and guys that don't really hit hard such as YouTubers or UFC guys, I don't really mind colliding with those kinds of individuals but nothing where I am going to put myself in a position where I am going to harm myself or hurt myself."
Speaking to Sky Sports in May, McGregor confirmed that he plans to return to boxing following his UFC return.
"Boxing is my first love in combat sports. I had such a great time the last time I was out there," he said.
"Obviously, my return will be in the octagon for UFC - that story is far from over, in fact it's just being written, it is just the beginning.
"But, boxing, for sure I will grace the squared circle again in the future."
