411mania listened in as Floyd Mayweather spoke to SupaKen of the Russ Parr Morning Show. Here are some of the highlights on a wide range of topics.
Mayweather interview excerpts:
Q. Why such a tough opponent out the gate?
Floyd- I'm one of the best fighters of all-time and from my era. To prove so, I want to fight one of the best from my era…
Q.Are you fully recovered from your injury?
Floyd- Yes it took a while, but now I'm fully recovered. Saw a specialist/doctor in Los Angeles that got me doing what I needed to do, and now I'm feeling a lot better…
Q.Was the injury caused by Floyd going hard, or was there a little rust there?
Floyd- It was just a freak accident. Freak accidents happen in training. I kept training, but a doctor told me I should rest so I could heal….
Q. Best thing accomplished during retirement?
Floyd- Spending time my with children…being the best father I can be…
Q. Response to Marquez planning to dig into bad ribs?
Floyd- 39 have tried and 39 have failed. September 19th will be a hell of a fight between the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world and the best Mexican fighter….
Q.What's your take on athletes getting caught with PEDs.
Floyd- Oh, like Shane Mosley. If that were me they would have put me through the ringer. I'm achieving off of my god-given abilities…
Q. Is Michael Vick getting a fair shake?
Floyd- Nah, they're not talking about the quarterback for the Steelers for what he just did, or that wide-receiver, who killed somebody and got 20something days…
As you can see, Mayweather has a lot of opinions, and he'll surely be talking a lot more in the coming weeks as he goes on to promote and hype his September 19th bout against Juan Manuel Marquez.
