UFC Rumors: Interesting new details on Floyd Mayweather's collaboration with Dana White for 2020

Floyd Mayweather dropped a bombshell on Instagram when he announced that he's coming out of retirement in 2020. Not only that, he posted an image of himself alongside Dana White and revealed that the two would be working together again for the first time since the Mayweather-Conor McGregor boxing match in 2017.

There has been a lot of speculation as to whether Mayweather was just teasing or if he's serious. However, it appears that he's dead set on making a comeback. TMZ has reported that for his boxing return, he's all set to have a rematch with Manny Pacquiao. He has reportedly been interested in a rematch with the Filipino legend following an impressive display against a very tough challenger in Keith Thurman.

While that is a massive money match-up on its own, there has been a lot of curiosity about what Mayweather's tie-up with the UFC is all about. According to TMZ, it's to have a crossover boxing match with a UFC star:

"As for the UFC component, we're told Floyd wants another boxing match with a UFC star, preferably someone who has impressed with stand-up striking skills.

"Floyd also called out Khabib [Nurmagomedov] in 2018 -- but he's notorious for his ground game ... so based on what we're being told, he's not the priority.

"As for dates, we're told Floyd wants to fight in May and again in Sept. -- and he's even thrown out the possibility of fighting at the new Raiders stadium in Las Vegas."

TMZ noted that it's all fluid right now and anything can change, but there's a starting point to work from. It's going to be interesting to see what the biggest box office draw in combat sports history has in store. Whatever it is, there's going to be millions of pay-per-views sold and hundreds of millions of dollars made.
