Floyd Mayweather is considering coming out of retirement, according to trainer Abel Sanchez.
The undefeated boxing legend announced he was hanging his gloves up last year. However, it looks like he could be making a return to the ring - and there's only person he wants to fight.
Speaking to On The Ropes Boxing, Sanchez said that Mayweather was "fixated" on a fight with middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin - who is trained by Sanchez.

He said: "He is saying things about a comeback, he just seems to be fixated on Golovkin.
"I've seen three or four pieces in the last couple of weeks where he's talking about beating Golovkin, it looks like he's laying the ground work for something, whether it's Golovkin or somebody else. Floyd's laying the ground works for a comeback."
"I think you lay the ground work, you say things to see how people react, you say things to see if it's something that the public wants and he's gauging that," he said. "We've always known that Floyd was a great businessman, so it's all part of a plan for him. There's nothing that he says or does that is not calculated."
What a fight that would be.
