Who talks like that when they have recovered from an injury? If he were really hurt, shouldn't he be saying "My ribs feel fine!" or "I feel fine and my ribs are not even sore now, I can move without pain." But there is nothing like that, just a generic statement that the doctor said it ok. It kinda sounds like he's bringing a fake sick note to school.

Boxing - USA Boxing News - Mayweather Jnr’s Vow

‘Pretty Boy’, who faces Juan Manuel Marquez at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on September 19, is now ready to re-claim his crown, stating: “I will destroy Marquez and reclaim my rightful place as boxing’s pound-for-pound king all in one night.

“I am relieved to be cleared to fight as I was already looking forward to getting back in the ring.”

If Mayweather Jnr does defeat the Mexican tough guy, Floyd is expected to face Pacquiao to settle once and for all who is the best fighter on the planet.
Gotta agree with you there... I can't recall the last time a sportsman said "The doc said i'm okay", except when we've been having updates the whole time and the athlete has said he feels fine etc, he's just waiting on news from the doctor that everything has healed correctly from the inside blah blah...

It was a load of rubbish from the start and still is.... I was sick of the Mayweather talk during his retirement, and i'm damn well sick of it now he's supposed to be back....

He's one fighter who you love to hate and hope he gets his ass whooped.. He's great to watch, but he's got the personality, mindset and integrity of an ugly lesbian... When he was first injured he could have got onto a press conference and said that he's really pissed off because he's been out of the game, and he knew his fans have missed him and he's wanted to come back and show what he's made of again, but then this tragic injury to postpone it, but he'll get himself right and be back better than ever....

But no... All we get is a "word from the Mayweather camp is he's hurt his back"..... Don't the million fans who pay good money to see these guys fight deserve a little more back from the fighters they support..... Money Mayweather would have no Money if it was for the boxing public....
I would say this is another thing that I hate about boxing, but it's not because their are plenty of good fighters out there who do it for their fans as much as anything and you know if they are injured, they are injured.. You know if they are going to take a fight, they are going to make it the most challenging one they can find and satan himself will have to strike him down with in injury before he will postpone a fight....

To think that some fighters fake injuries... And if this isn't a fake injury, it would have been simple to get that across.. But they don't even bother with that....

It should be Floyd "Drama" Mayweather.... Fuck his money...
