Mayweather's 'final' opponent is young and strong - but has lost three of his last six
Floyd Mayweather will return to the ring for the first time since the richest bout in boxing history, facing Andre Berto on Sept 12 in what he has said will be his final fight.
The welterweight title clash won't be nearly as lucrative as Mayweather's May 2 fight with Manny Pacquiao that earned him a reported $220 million. But it will still be sold on pay-per-view, even though Mayweather will be an overwhelming favorite to win for the 49th time in as many fights as a pro.
