Floyd Mayweather still ‘can’t beat everyone’ as his coach reveals ‘can’t keep gloves’ on boxing legend.
Mayweather has been out of the game professionally since 2017 after defeating UFC superstar Conor McGregor in ten rounds.

But exhibition comeback bouts have kept the undefeated millionaire in the gym and his wealth continues to rise.
Most recently, Mayweather was taken away by YouTuber Logan Paul in an eight-round spectacle last June.
Gerald Tucker was their chief cornerman that night and head coach throughout the camp, where the American giant spent years back in his Las Vegas gym.
And with both preparing for another comeback, the boxing trainer claimed that even now, aged 44 and more than four years after retiring, Mayweather remains untouchable in the ring.
Tucker told SunSport: “It’s a completely unbiased opinion, it’s going from what I see at the gym – especially as we were preparing for Logan …
“He’s got sparring coming – and they’re undefeated guys, big guys, active guys.

“Some of them are like 18-0, or 21-1, still early in their careers. And they still can’t put a glove on Floyd.
“Floyd can still compete at this championship-level, even today and beat all those guys.”
Mayweather insisted that his time in the professional and traditional ranks was over, with nothing left to prove as the 50-0, five-weight world champion.
Instead, he has two comeback bouts against Japanese featherweight kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa, 23, and social media sensation Paul, 26.
Mayweather is now in talks to face 20-year-old YouTuber Money Kicks – real name Rashid Belhasa – at the Dubai Helipiad on February 20.
Tucker and Mayweather are reunited with training sessions in Vegas and most recently in Miami.

And with Mayweather secretly displaying his timeless prowess once again, his coach constantly wonders what would happen if he made a real comeback.
Tucker said: “I think about it the whole time we’re working. It’s like man, he can kill these guys and I’m looking at the big names.
“Of course I’m mindful of all things, I’m taking everything into account when I’m even thinking about him getting back in the ring like a Canelo.
“I’m thinking about youth benefits, activity benefits, I’m thinking about everything.
“And I still see him beat everyone out there with no loss in terms of weight.”
