After completing what's rumoured to be his last ever fight (against Andre Berto in Las Vegas this Saturday), Floyd has planned to make a 7-stop UK Tour visiting London, Manchester, Newcastle, Leicester, Bolton, Glasgow and of course Walsall.
The show will reportedly, be held in conjunction with R'n'B All Stars who are linked to Mayweather already.
Promoter Spencer Brown has stated "I wouldn't predict anything until he's actually here, but I would expect this to be the biggest public-speaking boxing show that's been held in the West Midlands"
We completely agree and are really thrilled with the potential increase in promotion of Walsall and boost in tourism to the area.
As it can only mean good things for our businesses!
We do not know the actual date of the show yet except that it will be happening at some point in the middle of October.
