"You know, it's funny. My videographer, James Dayap, one of the best videographers in the world, came to me and said, 'Floyd, look what they're saying, trying to say that this fight is bigger than you and Pacquiao.' I mean, records are made to be broken. We'll just see what the numbers do. We can't really say. Anything can happen. They probably can make, I don't know, what, $74 million or $73 million at the gate. It's possible, you know," stated retired undefeated former pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather, who shared his thoughts on whether or not the intriguing May 7 showdown between middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez and former world champion Amir Khan could be as big as his record-setting mega-fight with Manny Pacquiao. Although Mayweather was clearly being sarcastic with his response, he made it a point to remind everyone that he'd quickly take back his pay-per-view throne should he announce that he's returning for a 50th fight.



"You know, I can easily put a halt on that fight if I chose to call Mr. Garcia, [Danny] Garcia's dad, if I chose to call him and say, 'You know what, sir, you're a hell of a trainer, you're son's a hell of a fighter, he's an undefeated champion, I'm an undefeated champion, and I think it would be great for me and your son both to make a lot of money. And like I said before, you're very outspoken, my dad is very outspoken; it would be good for me to come back for number 50 and fight the undefeated Danny Garcia, you know, at the MGM Grand.' You know, since Danny Garcia is undefeated and he's very explosive, he's a very good fighter, and he really represents Puerto Rico the same way that Trinidad dad. Even though he's from Philadelphia, he represents the red, white, and blue for Puerto Rico. I'll go over to the MGM Grand and say, 'You know what? We need a venue also,' and we'll see," Mayweather informed FightHype.com during a recent conversation.



Mayweather added, "Because if I'm not mistaken, I fought Canelo, right, and then Danny Garcia fought Amir Khan, and we're both undefeated, so who do you want to see? Do you want to see them or do you want to see us? I'm just saying, I'm just putting it out there, those are the type of things that I can do. I want to say congratulations Danny Garcia. Wear that belt with class and wear that belt with style. You deserve it."
