Floyd Mayweather closing in on ring return after postponement of Money Kicks fight

Floyd Mayweather is planning to return to the ring in May after his exhibition with Money Kicks was postponed.

The American star was set to go head-to-head with the social media sensation - real name Reshad Belhasa - on February 20, but the fight collapsed at the 11th hour with talks breaking down. The exhibition bout was set to be Mayweather's third and was earmarked to take place on a helipad on top of the Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai.

Mayweather's coach Gerald Tucker has now claimed that Mayweather's style remains pleasing to fans and he will continue to search for opportunities while the interest remains.
