Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Floyd Mayweather, WBC welterweight champion:

"Another big one May 3rd, what else can I say? Marcos Maidana, a young, strong, tough competitor, you know, a guy that I know that I can't overlook. You know, you could never take any fighter for granted, because anything can happen."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Floyd Mayweather, WBC Welterweight Champion:

"Marcos Maidana is non-stop action, comes straight ahead, cut the ring off and he loves to brawl. But he throws awkward shots from long distance that make things happen in fights. So it's obvious, he's world champion, I'm world champion and so we just have to see how this fights plays out May 3rd. But this is a guy that I know that I cannot overlook."
