Rapids. — Unbeaten US fighter Floyd Mayweather hinted that the identity of his next foe, speculated to be Britain’s Amir Khan, could be revealed this week.
In a report on Tuesday on the MLive Media Group website from Mayweather’s home state of Michigan, Mayweather was quoted as saying last week that this week could be a big one.
Asked about his fight future on November 27, Mayweather said, “Next week. I’m looking forward to next week. But as for me right now I’m not thinking about boxing.” Mayweather, 45-0 with 26 knock-outs, is expected to fight on May 3 of next year in his first bout since taking the World Boxing Council and World Boxing Association light middleweight titles in a 12-round majority decision over Saul “Canelo” Alvarez on September 14.
Khan became the top speculative candidate after he failed to sign a deal that appeared set to face American Devon Alexander this Saturday, the talk being that he did not want to risk a chance for a big-money fight with Mayweather by taking on Alexander first. — AFP.
