0 3

FLOYD MAYWEATHER’s retirement has not kept him out of the boxing gym as he handed out a priceless lesson on the punchbag.

The undefeated American hung up his gloves after defeating Conor McGregor in August 2017.

But there are increasing rumours that the 42-year-old, who boasts a record of 50 wins and no defeats, will step back into the ring for a final swansong with fellow legend Manny Pacquiao.

And if he does, Mayweather looks like he’ll be in prime shape to take on the Filipino for the second time in his career.

Uploading a video to social media, it shows Money stepping around the punchbag handing out valuable advice to a crowd of people listening intently.

One person commented: “Like a piano lesson off of Mozart.”

Another added: “This is the kind of thing floyd should be doing instead of flaunting his wealth people love his skills not his money #GOAT.”

SunSport revealed how Mayweather put the brakes on an exhibition bout in China this year to negotiate a rematch with Pacquiao.

Mayweather held talks in June about taking part in another non-professional fight.

He knocked out Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in Tokyo on New Year’s Eve and looked set for yet another £7million pay day this year.

However, Money halted plans for a second exhibition, for now, to first rematch Pacquiao.

Jay Lau, director of Hong Kong’s DEF Promotions, said: “Mayweather came two times to Hong Kong, he spoke with my son Jayson and we had communications but now he is focussing the Pacquiao rematch.

“We were talking about an exhibition in China, a big event but not a recorded professional boxing fight. Something like Mayweather vs Tenshin in Japan.

“We spoke a bit about doing a special fight in China, but half way through he turned to the Pacquiao rematch so we stopped.”
