Mayweather should fight Golovkin at 154, says Mancini

Mancini has zero respect for Mayweather fighting Andre Berto (30-3, 23 KOs) in his next fight on September 12th, if that’s who Mayweather winds up facing next. Mancini sees that fight as a waste of time for Mayweather because it’s such a mismatch.
