“Retirement has been great, but as you know and everyone knows, I retire and then I come back. It's possible that I'll return, but if I do, it has to be in the octagon. I talked to my team. I spoke with Al Heymon (his personal advisor). Al Heymon said no. I spoke to CBS (a TV channel in the USA that owns Showtime, the broadcaster that broadcasts its fights). If I return, Showtime and CBS have to be involved,” Mayweather said.

The main person interested in signing Mayweather, Dana White, president of the UFC, guarantees that he can reach a contract with the fighter. “He knows the money will be good, he knows. That's why he's talking about it. I am very confident that it will happen”, said the director, to the North American ESPN.
