Reports from late February 2023 hinted at Mayweather's return for high-profile exhibitions, including one with Mike Tyson and another bout with Pacquiao set for September. While these reports stirred interest among fans, details around the location of the Mayweather-Pacquiao rematch remain unresolved.
A source close to Mayweather indicated the Las Vegas Sphere could be one possible venue. Despite its immersive design and history of hosting significant events, Mayweather has not confirmed its selection. In his words:
“We don't know exactly where the fight is going to be. The Sphere is one of the places that they talked about.”
Mayweather emphasized his upcoming appearances will focus on entertainment value rather than competitive achievements. He explained:
“These events should not be viewed as a full comeback to professional boxing; they're meant to entertain and not chase after titles or rankings.”
Discussing why he stays involved in boxing, Mayweather cited his dedication to fitness mixed with family time as primary motivators: Learn more about his motivations here. His schedule might include other venues apart from Sin City: Mayweather plans further exhibitions.
