Mayweather: No offer will lure me out of retirement
Floyd Mayweather says he has had "crazy numbers" thrown at him to fight again.
But despite offers of “nine-figure” sums of money, Mayweather, who retired after his 49th successive victory last September, is not planning a comeback.
“As of right now, I am out completely,” said the 38-year-old multiple world champion.
“If I do get the itch to come back, it really won't be for the money but I have to get paid. That's why the nickname is Floyd 'Money' Mayweather.”
Mayweather won world titles at five weights and retired with an unblemished record.
He is about to embark on a speaking tour of the UK and spoke to BBC World Service Sport about his current activities.
“Everything that you guys are hearing that Michael Koncz has said and what [promoter] Bob Arum has said is totally false. Totally false. I haven't spoken to Bob Arum, I haven't spoken to Michael Koncz.
“And as far as people keep talking about Mayweather Promotions, I dictate and control what goes on with it. Leonard Ellerbe is the CEO but everything has to go through me and I have to put the green light on any and everything.”
