Floyd Mayweather and Juan Manuel Marquez discussed their fight, training and other topics with the media this week in preparation for September 19 PPV clash at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. “The biggest fight in boxing is Mayweather vs. anyone. It doesn’t matter who I fight,” stated Floyd. “I don’t call out or chase opponents. Opponents have to chase me. “It’s like a t-bone steak. Basically I ate all the meat off the steak and then threw them the bone….I’m going down in history as one of the best, one of the best of all time, if not the best.” Marquez stated, “Obviously, I have a lot of heart. I’m Mexican. I like to get up there. I like to fight. Winning will be the gift of my life (Marquez celebrates his birthday August 23).”

On Marquez:
“I know in my heart that Marquez is going to be at his best. He always comes out and performs to the best of his ability. I’m back training and you’re going to get one hell of a fight.
“Marquez is a Mexican warrior. He represents the Mexican community extremely well and the heritage extremely well. I know he’s going to be at his best when he comes to face the best, so the only thing I’ve got to do is go out there and be me. Be sharp and be smart.”.....read more
