Boxing: Tyson returns to the ring, exhibition match with Mayweather in 2026

New York (New York, United States), 5 September. (LaPresse/AP) – Mike Tyson is ready to return to the ring after his exhibition match with YouTuber boxer Jake Paul last November, which Paul won on points. Tyson (who will be 60 next year) will face another boxing legend in 2026: Floyd Mayweather Jr, who is 12 years younger and undefeated. It will, of course, be an exhibition that, according to Mayweather, “will give fans what they want”. Both boxers are, in fact, members of the World Boxing Hall of Fame. The announcement came from Csi Sport, which will launch a partnership for the streaming and multimedia broadcast of the event, the date and location of which are not yet known.
