Boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather could make '£28 million' for his exhibition match against Deji next month, and may even be willing to put his unbeaten professional record on the line in the near future.

His next fight is set to be held in Dubai, and will see Mayweather taking on the YouTuber on November 13.

It is the second time the 45-year-old will take on a social media star, after he beat Logan Paul in Florida last year.

 Uday Singh, CEO of Global Titans who are organising the fight against Deji, told Insider they have already sold '40% of the tickets, and are expecting sellout.'

He also revealed the payout could be as high as '£28 million' for Mayweather.

Singh went on to discuss the boxer putting his undefeated professional record back on the line, as he explained: 'We do have plans to do a real fight which is not an exhibition fight with Floyd and someone else next year.'

A professional rematch with Manny Pacquiao could also be on the cards

Mayweather previously revealed he was planning to fight McGregor in 2023 during an exclusive interview with Sportsmail, but the UFC star has since played down talk of a rematch.

The Irishman was beaten by TKO in the tenth round when they first fought in a highly-anticipated 2017 clash, and looks set to continue his MMA career rather than revisiting boxing. The McGregor fight is currently Mayweather's most recent professional bout.

Money's first fight with Pacquiao was arguably an even bigger spectacle. Billed as 'the fight of the century', Mayweather won by unanimous decision in Las Vegas.
