Mayweather hinting at fight with Martinez

Five weight champion and pound for pound star, Floyd Mayweather Jr has hinted that he may want to jump up and win another world title at another weight by fighting at middleweight, possibly against Sergio Martinez.

Mayweather is currently training to fight Miguel Cotto on May 5th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas but did mention the possibility that a Mayweather vs Martinez showdown could be feasible.

“I can’t rule out the future, you know down the line I may want to make that jump and fight at middleweight, you just never know. I just want to give the fans exciting fights and if Martinez is the guy at that time then we shall see, but right now my main focus is Miguel Cotto,” said Mayweather.

A Mayweather vs Martinez bout would surely do wonders for Mayweather Jr’s legacy, even more so if Floyd boxes the Argentinian at his own weight of 160lb, and capturing a world title at a sixth weight would only be a side achievement to fighting a man considered to be the current number three pound for pound in the world.
