By Raj Parmar: During a recent media workout to promote the rematch between Floyd Mayweather (46-0, 26 KO’s) and Marcos Maidana (35-4, 31 KO’s), Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe openly discussed Mayweather’s motivation for the fight and Floyd’s intent of ensuring Maidana does not make the final bell.
“Floyd is very prepared for this fight and is extremely motivated in his preparation,” Ellerbe stated via Fightype.com, “He has some added incentive because Chino (Maidana) has been talking a lot of trash and Floyd finds that very disrespectful. Floyd is very determined to stop Chino.”
