Retired boxer Floyd Mayweather is reportedly set to return to the ring in an eight-round exhibition fight against Don Moore next month.

The fight will take place on the helipad on top of the Burj Al Arab Hotel in Dubai on May 14.

It will be part of a new series of fights titled "Global Titans Fight Series", which will feature UFC legend Anderson Silva as well as former two-weight world champion Badou Jack.

The 45-year-old Mayweather's last fight was another exhibition against YouTuber Logan Paul last June, while Moore, 42, hasn’t fought since 2013 — when he beat Reymundo Hernandes.
