JAKARTA - Even though he has officially retired from professional boxing, Floyd Mayweather Jr. remains a coveted name on any billboard. In addition, "Money" - his nickname - continues to be active by appearing in various exhibition fights.

In fact, Mayweather has confirmed to the FightHype portal that he already has several other exhibition duels.

"I have three more exhibitions this year, maybe one fight and two exhibitions", Mayweather said.

"But guess what, it's best that, at least, I'm talking about $200 million", he added.

In this interview, "Money" stated that he was willing to bet on his famous 50-0 record. So, as he prepares for his September fight against MMA star Mikuru Asakura, he is also said to be negotiating a rematch against 34-year-old UFC fighter Conor McGregor.

Also weighing on the conversation was Adrien Broner, a student of Mayweather and considered one of the top 10 fighters in the super lightweight division, according to The Ring magazine.

He thinks the "student vs mentor" fight will be a huge box office magnet with an estimated $100 million each.

"If I were Floyd, I know I'd never have to fight again", Broner said in an interview with Cigar Talk.

"That exhibition, me as his sister, will give us a lot. Hey, brother (Mayweather), we will fight 10 rounds and we will both make more than 100 million US dollars (IDR 14.78 trillion) for it. We will never have to box again", said Broner.

Additionally, "The Problem" - Broner's nickname - asserts, "It's time for everyone to get what comes their way. He'll never have to box again. That's what I'm going to do because that's what I have to do. I don't I don't know if Floyd wants to see me with that kind of money."

Broner has even said he's willing to abide by any terms Mayweather asks to give people this opportunity to see him again in a professional fight. However, he did not know if the proposal was attractive enough to convince him.

"In the end, I don't know what he feels about me. I don't know how he feels. I can't say anything. I just, I don't know why the fight didn't work out. It would be the biggest moneymaker of his career", he said. Broner.

Finally, Broner revealed, "I love Jake Paul, as well as Logan Paul. I love what they do for the sport. All I'm saying is, I'll be fighting in three weeks. If Floyd calls me to fight him, I'll call it off.
