Floyd Mayweather Jr. announces an exhibition fight against kickboxer Mike Zambidis before his rematch with Manny Pacquiao. Mayweather, 49, faces Pacquiao, 47, on September 19 in Las Vegas. Before that, he'll step into the ring in June 2026 in Athens, Greece, under exhibition rules. Mayweather teases fans on social media, promising an “all-out exhibition” and a “legendary battle” at the Telekom Center. Zambidis, 45, a retired Greek kickboxer with “18 world titles and 87 savage knockouts,” prepares for this unique matchup. Known as "Iron Mike," Zambidis aims to add excitement to Mayweather's already storied career. Mayweather's return to the ring follows a series of exhibition bouts since his 50-0 professional record was established against Conor McGregor in 2017. The Pacquiao fight presents a true test, putting Mayweather's perfect record on the line once again.
