FLOYD MAYWEATHER SPEAKS ON POSSIBLE FIGHT WITH SERGIO MARTINEZ
By Kevin Davis
Everyone wants Floyd Mayweather to fight Manny Pacquiao and one day that fight may happen, but if there is one other fighter besides Manny that the public will accept, that would be Sergio Martinez. Mayweather is well aware also, he has been watching Martinez success with interest. Since Floyd Mayweather came back in 2009, his uncle Roger Mayweather spilled the beans at the presser and told me that one reason that Floyd is back is to win the middleweight championship and then retire as the only guy to win 7 world titles in 6 different weight classes without a loss and pass Ray Robinson.
In due time that fight shall happen as well, once it becomes big enough, right now it's growing huge. Mayweather was asked during his presser about a possible fight with Sergio Martinez "I can't rule out the future, you know down the line I may want to make that jump and fight at middleweight, you just never know. I just want to give the fans exciting fights and if Martinez is the guy at that time then we shall see, but right now my main focus is on Miguel Cotto."

Anyone who tries to use the "too old" excuse is reaching at this point. Floyd is 35 years old. At this point that excuse is no longer relevant.

If he fights at 150lbs that would be s*** and a waste of time. 154lbs would be a good fight and is not a catchweight. 160lbs would be awesome but highly unlikely. Pacquiao fought Cotto at 145lbs.

That would be an awesome fight, but I doubt it would happen at 160lbs.
