Floyd Mayweather still hasn’t lined up his next opponent and Anthony Mundine says he wants a shot at “Money.”
Mayweather is coming off two wins over Marcos Maidana and is expected to fight Amir Khan or Manny Pacquiao in his next bout in spring 2015, but hasn’t confirmed his opponent yet.
Mayweather has notably backed off confirming that a fight with Pacquiao will ever happen while edging closer to choosing Khan as his opponent.
But other fighters have also been mentioned as a possible opponent, and now Anthony Mundine wants his name in the conversation.
Mundine, 39, defeated Sergey Rabchenko in Melbourne on Wednesday night. The win, which was considered an upset since Rabchenko was previously 25-0, gave Mundine the WBC silver light middleweight title and made him No1 challenger to WBC title holder Mayweather, reported the Guardian.
“It was do or die. He had a couple of great rounds but I thought I won the last two rounds and got the victory,” Mundine said. “I proved everybody wrong again; it’s not about the age. It’s about the mind, my seasoning and my experience.”
Mundine admitted that he probably wouldn’t be able to fight Mayweather without getting at least one more “significant” victory.
