Floyd Mayweather will return to boxing for another EXHIBITION following his high-profile bout with Logan Paul.

​Mayweather, 44, faced YouTube star Paul in a blockbuster clash year. 

And the former boxing pound-for-pound king has confirmed he will take part in another exhibition bout on February 20 in Dubai.

That's four days before his 45th birthday and will be staged on the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah's helipad.​

He announced: "February 20th, we haven't chosen an opponent yet but I look forward to it and hopefully we give you guys something to see."​

Mayweather walked away from the sport after beating Conor McGregor in a money-spinning showdown in Las Vegas.

He's returned to action twice since stopping the UFC superstar, beating Japanese kick-boxer Tenshin Nasukawa in an exhibition before taking on Paul.

The boxing legend also insists that he could be lured into another fight following his February 20 contest. 

He said: "One fight? We may do more than one fight.

"We want to give the people some entertainment. So yes, it will be more than one fight.

"Well, I don't like to call what I'm doing a fight. I like to call it a limited edition boxing showcase. Because it's bigger than just boxing."​

The helipad-bout will be in front of a 'very special crowd', per the American who added: "It's going to be a very special crowd, not too many people.

"So, if you get the chance to come here, you must know, you're very, very special for this event."
