Floyd Mayweather has that ‘unbeatable’ feeling
Mayweather has not fought since his unanimous decision win over Miguel Cotto last May, and also served two months of an 87-day prison sentence for domestic abuse.
But Mayweather shrugged off claims by Guerrero that his inactivity would have any impact on his performance – and repeated his conviction that he is one of the best fighters in the history of the sport.

If that’s the way [for Guerrero] to build his confidence, to get himself mentally prepared, then more power to him. But I’m in tip-top shape.”
Mayweather starts a big favourite against Californian Guerrero, who boasts 31 wins from 35 fights, including a solitary loss to Gamaliel Diaz in a featherweight fight in 2006. Meanwhile, 37-year-old Ukrainian Wladimir Klitschko puts his WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight titles on the line tonight when he takes on 28-year-old Italian Francesco Pianeta at the SAP Arena in Mannheim, Germany.
