Floyd Mayweather is not done yet. Boxing News 24 reports that Mayweather, 49, has announced an exhibition fight in Bangkok on 19 December against Matty The Jedi Floyd

Mayweather described the bout as a tune up before he and Ryan Garcia lock up

Garcia, the WBC welterweight champion, wants a firm commitment for a fight on 6 February. However, there are no contracts, no agreed money, no broadcaster and no WBC approval in place yet

Mayweather's unbeaten 50-0 record remains the main selling point of any return. The article questions how many pay per view buys a fight between them would generate

Mayweather is one of the greatest boxers of all time, but at 49, even a fight with a big name like Garcia comes with plenty of questions. Exhibitions keep his name in the headlines and bring in money. A real fight with a world champion would be a very different proposition

Would you pay to watch Mayweather against Garcia? And should Mayweather risk his 50-0 record?
