For Floyd Mayweather Jr., it feels like he's never been away.
"I left on top, and I came back on top," Mayweather said. "I'm here to fight and reclaim what's mine."
Mayweather formally announced his return to boxing Saturday, less than a year after he retired and said he was through with the sport. He will fight lightweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez on July 18 in a fight with a 143-pound limit.
The undefeated former five-time champion last fought when he stopped Ricky Hatton in the 10th round of their December 2007 fight. He was expected to fight Oscar De La Hoya in a rematch of the fight he narrowly won earlier that year, but last June said he would not fight again.
Mayweather is unbeaten in 39 fights.
