50-1...?!

Floyd Mayweather went through his entire boxing career without tasting defeat, but he suffered a big 'L' when he stepped on to the basketball court.

The former pound-for-pound king walked away from boxing with a perfect 50-0 record after beating the likes of Oscar De La Hoya, Manny Pacquiao and Conor McGregor, among others.

He swapped the ring for the court after enjoying a glittering career in the squared circle as he took part in a charity basketball match.

Mayweather flashed his 'b-ball' skills in Monster Energy 50K Charity Challenge in Los Angeles, but it didn't end well as Larry Williams performed a savage crossover that dropped the boxer.

Williams then completed his move with a three-pointer whilst Mayweather was still lying on the floor. They don't call Williams the 'Bone Collector' for nothing.

Talking of the court, that's where Mayweather struck a deal with Dana White.

The 42-year-old announced his return to combat sport in a social media post after agreeing a deal with the UFC president.

"It's true," White said. "We sat at the Clipper's game, we started talking. And we literally got a deal done right there on the court.

"We shook hands. We have a deal, and if things play out the way that Floyd. I think they will. I'll probably sit down with Al Haymon in March and get a deal on paper.

"Let's see how the next few months play out. We could be doing something fun. I think if everything goes our way, Floyd and I would be doing something in October or November."
