Mayweather to fight again

As long as there is money to be made, Floyd Mayweather isn’t hanging up his boxing gloves.
The former undefeated middleweight champ will be fighting YouTube personality Logan Paul on Feb. 20 in a pay-per-view exhibition match on Fanmio.
Mayweather was 50-0 as a pro, with 27 knockouts, before retiring in 2015.
Since then, he has won lucrative pay-per-view exhibitions over Irish mixed-martial arts champ Conor McGregor and Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa.
It seems fitting that Mayweather’s nickname is “Money.”
Paul has had two exhibition fights, both against British YouTuber KSI. Paul lost one bout and fought to a draw in the other.
Despite a lack of boxing experience, Paul will have an advantage in age — he is 25 compared to Mayweather at 43 — and in height. Paul is 6-foot-2, while Mayweather is 5-foot-8.
