LONDON: Floyd Mayweather has denied that he is in talks over a rematch with Filipino boxing legend Manny Pacquiao in Saudi Arabia.
A video that appeared on social media on Sunday featured Mayweather saying he was traveling to Saudi Arabia to discuss the fight.
But late on Monday, the undefeated 50-0 fighter, took to Instagram to say the video was old and that the fight “will never happen again.”
The American fighter also told FightHype.com that the video was shot nearly nine months ago ahead of a trip he took to Saudi Arabia in January.
In the video, Mayweather said: “It’s an honor to come to Saudi Arabia to sit down with you guys to talk about the Mayweather vs Pacquiao rematch. Saudi Arabia — Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather — I’m on my way.”
Mayweather beat Pacquiao at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas in 2015.
