Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather, two of boxing’s most legendary names, are set to face off against each other in 2026 in a blockbuster exhibition fight.
Both iconic names are retired from the sport but will pull on the gloves once again for a spring showdown, and contracts are already signed, per TMZ.
Tyson, 59, sparked serious health concerns when he returned to the ring last year for an exhibition against Jake Paul, and a match-up against an opponent like Mayweather is set to further increase that.
Though Mayweather himself is 48 – and will be 49 by the time he steps back in the ring – he holds a 50-0 professional record and is still in incredible shape.
The match between two of the sport’s most legendary figures will be put on by CSI Sports and Fight Sports, and an exact date and location are yet to be decided.
When Tyson last fought – a loss against YouTube sensation Paul – it took place live on Netflix at the Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium.
