I wouldn't say Floyd Mayweather Jr is running scared of Amir Khan. Floyd doesn't need to run from anybody. Look at the names he has beaten during his career and it is an impressive list.
I look up to Floyd Mayweather, but I don't try to be like Floyd Mayweather. He's done great things, he's a role model. But those who say I try to be Floyd can go kick rocks.
I'm telling you, Amir Khan gives Floyd Mayweather problems.
Floyd Mayweather is bigger than the sport. That's the thing. Because you can go to somebody who don't even know what boxing is and say, "Floyd Mayweather." They'll go, "Oh, I know Floyd Mayweather. I've heard that name."
Whether it's Marcos Maidana, Shawn Porter, Amir Khan or Kell Brook, there are a lot of fights out there that I think would be very interesting for me, my career and the sport of boxing outside of Floyd Mayweather.
The only thing more embellished than Floyd Mayweather's pay-per-view buys is Floyd Mayweather's net worth. But his spending habits are real.
I don't mind getting beaten by Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather Jr and people like that, but I'd hate to go into a training camp with my heart not fully in it and risk getting beaten by somebody who shouldn't be beating me.
Floyd Mayweather has fought the biggest names throughout his career and has earned the right to face whoever he chooses.
Most people would think that I don't like Floyd Mayweather, but I like Floyd. He understood on how to keep winning, I don't care what anyone says, he kept the passion in his boxing and in his training to win. A lot of people lose that. They get the money and they don't want to train and Mayweather trained the same as when he had no money and persisted to win.
I study Floyd Mayweather, Mike Tyson, Roy Jones Jr and Sugar Ray Leonard.
I'm not going to say that I'm the best, we respect our champions. Floyd's been doing this a lot longer than me, he's been a lot of mega fights and I won't dare say that I'm better than Floyd Mayweather.
I watched Floyd growing up and I never thought I'd be able to meet Floyd. I've been on some of his undercards and I've watched his skills, watched his demeanor. Floyd is one of the best fighters to ever step in the boxing ring.
The only thing that can blow away the Michael Jordan sad face meme, is the Floyd Mayweather knockout meme. If Floyd Mayweather got knocked out - knocked out to the point where he is ice cold on the ground - I think that's the one meme that can just overwhelm the whole Jordan issue.
I fought on the undercard of a show headlined by Ricky Hatton and Floyd Mayweather Jr. There was almost no one in the arena then. But when Hatton and Mayweather came out, every seat was filled. There had to be 16,000 or 17,000 people in there. The place was going crazy.
I say to Floyd Mayweather Jr., don't be a coward and face me in the ring, mano a mano, and shut your big, pretty mouth so we can show the world who is the true king of the ring.
Jose Mourinho is the Floyd Mayweather Jr of football management. You either love him or hate him.
I thought after that fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao, if this was supposed to be fight of the decade, then people must be missing me a lot more.
