Floyd Mayweather returns to the ring for another exhibition fight this weekend, going head to head with Aaron Chalmers in London.
The bout, which will take place two days after Mayweather’s 46th birthday, marks the American’s first ever contest in the UK.
Since retiring undefeated as a professional in 2017, with a record of 50-0, the boxing legend has competed in a number of exhibitions – most recently stopping YouTuber Deji in the sixth round in November.
Next up for “Money” is Chalmers, who is best known for starring on Newcastle-based reality television show Geordie Shore. The Briton went on to compete in mixed martial arts – compiling a 5-2 record – and is 1-0 in pro boxing. Chalmers, 35, won his boxing debut on points over four rounds in June.
