Boxing Quotes: Floyd And Roger MayweatherBy Boxing Press September 4th, 2009 All Press ReleasesRichard Schaefer: How is training camp going, Roger? Roger Mayweather: The training camp is always the same. Isn't anything different about training camp. Richard Schaefer:Is he going to be ready? Roger Mayweather: You don't believe he will be? I mean everyone is saying he won't be ready, but he can beat the best fighters out there so what - it's no different that that. He is going to do what he going to do to Marquez. It's the same thing. Leonard Ellerbe: Okay. Next up this man needs no introduction. He' the best fighter in the world; Mr. PPV himself, Mr. HBO none other than Money Mayweather. Floyd Mayweather: September 19, like my Uncle Roger said I'm always ready mentally as well as physically. Always prepared in the best way and I wish Marquez camp nothing but the best. And hopefully, we have a wonderful fight September 19. Q: How big of a distraction have these incidents in the last month, hit you guys, you and Roger both, how big a distraction has it been for your training? Floyd Mayweather: Well one thing is just to focus on the fight September 19. Anything else, I'm not really worried about. I try to focus on positive - I try to focus on positive things. Like I said, a majority of calls that, people do interviews most - only thing they want to know about is negative things, they'll never ask you about the positive things.How many different families I have and how many different schools I've given back to. Only thing they want to know is just things that are negative and we try to focus on positive things. Q: How's your rib injury healing? Floyd Mayweather: Everything's going great. Like I said we had a freak accident in the past and the only thing we trying to do is just move on, that was in the past. I'm a lot better now. I feel strong and I'm ready to fight. Q: Floyd, congratulations on your pay-per-view success. I know through no fault of your own you had only been on pay-per-view a few times before the fight with De La Hoya and the fight with Ricky Hatton, both of which were blockbuster pay-per-views. And of course I do understand it takes two to tango. I think especially the way you promoted the fight with De La Hoya. I think that had something to do with the terrific numbers. But what do say Floyd to those people that think that you didn't become a pay-per-view star until you fought arguably two of the most popular fighters in the world, and that this fight with Marquez is going to show whether or not you are a true pay-per-view star? Floyd Mayweather: Well you must realize in the past I was of course, I was with another promotion company. I don't have to throw no certain names out there, but I was with another promotion company that never took me to that next level. It's not my fault that I wasn't taken to the next level in the past. And, I feel that I always was a pay-per-view star. I feel that Marquez is - he has a good following as far as, with his Mexican background and Mexican people he has a good following. At this particular time he's Mexico's number one fighter. So even in the U.S, I feel that he's going to have a lot of support and of course, me coming back to the sport - I look forward to doing just, I look forward to doing good numbers. And the main thing is, continue to just bring excitement back to the sport. Bring flash back to the sport of boxing and I truly believe I can do that. Related Boxing Articles...
