Floyd Mayweather and KSI look set to team up for a tag-team boxing match against Manny Pacquiao and TikTok star Salt Papi.
KSI’s Misfits Boxing banner tried out the tag-team concept in early march, a move which has proved to be a hit among their crossover fanbase.
And now boxing legends Mayweather and Pacquiao could be added into mix.
Happy Punch Promotion says a match that would see Mayweather and KSI will team up against Filipinos Pacquiao and Salt Papi is ‘officially in the works.’
Influencer Salt Papi, who is promoted and managed by Happy Punch, has a white collar boxing record of 3-0.
Mayweather beat Pacquiao in 2015 in what was the most lucrative fight of all time, grossing over £500million with 4.4m pay-per-views sold in America.
They have since fought in exhibition bouts but a rematch between Mayweather and Pacquiao has always been evaded.
‘Money’ has boxed in six exhibitions since his retirement in 2017 following victory over UFC icon Conor McGregor.
Mayweather has also faced YouTube stars Logan Paul and KSI’s younger brother, Deji. His last exhibition fight came in February, where he took on Geordie Shore star Aaron Chalmers.
Pacquiao is keen on a return to professional boxing and is in talks to face Conor Benn.
KSI is set to fight again on May 13 in London against millionaire businessman-turned-boxer Joe Fournier, who boasts a 9-0 record.
Meanwhile, Salt Papi has expressed an interest in fighting the YouTuber himself.
