Roman 'Rocky' Martinez (29-2-2, 17 KOs) will risk his WBO Junior Lightweight title in a rematch against the boxer he dethroned, four-time world champion Orlando 'Siri' Salido (42-13-2, 29 KOs). Their first fight in April of this year is considered by many to be a leading candidate for Fight of the Year. In addition, Badou Jack 'The Ripper' (19-1-1, 12 KOs) will make the first defense of his WBC Super Middleweight World title against mandatory challenger 'Saint' George Groves (21-2, 16 KOs).

With the Gonzalez vs. Oquendo fight added to the jam-packed SHOWTIME PPV telecast, boxing fans are in for a night of action from top to bottom that features two more additions to the Mexico vs. Puerto Rico boxing rivalry, three world championship fights and the final bout of the greatest fighter of this generation.

One of the best Mexican fighters of this era, Mexico City's Gonzalezhas held world championships at 118 and 126 pounds, defeating the likes of Hall-of-Famer Mark 'Too Sharp' Johnson and former world champions Fernando Montiel, Irene Pacheco, and Hozumi Hasegawa along the way. His most recent championship winning performance came via a stunning first round knockout of three-division champion Abner Mares which earned him the WBC Featherweight World Title. He would defend the title twice before losing to Gary Russell Jr. but the 33-year-old bounced back earlier this month by knocking out Kazuki Hashimoto.

A top contender from Bayamon, Puerto Rico Oquendo has won 11 of his last 13 fights, including his most recent victory over Gabino Cota in March. The 32-year-old owns victories over Joe Luis Araiza, Eden Sonsona, Alejandro Montiel and top prospect Guillermo Avila. He will fight for the sixth time in his career at MGM Grand when he enters the ring on September 12.

Floyd Mayweather received a problematic text from his daughter.Source:AP

FLOYD Mayweather Jr. found himself with a problem as he headed to work today to try and sell sceptical fans on what he insists will be his last fight.

It wasn’t with Andre Berto, his hand-picked opponent for the 49th fight of his long career on Sunday (AEST). It’s hard to find anyone — much less Mayweather — who thinks Berto is going to give Mayweather many problems in his final fight.

The issue Mayweather was dealing with came in a text from one of his daughters. She was in Los Angeles wondering if she had to fly commercial to come see her father or if he would send his private jet.

“I said I’d send the jet,” Mayweather said.

Just another day in the life of the highest paid athlete in the world, who pulled down more than $200 million for his fight in May with Manny Pacquiao.

No need to get too hyped up for Berto, not that Mayweather gets too worked up about any of his opponents, including Pacquiao.

“This is normal for me,” Mayweather told a small group of reporters after his official arrival for fight week at the MGM Grand hotel.

“I’ve been here before, met with all you guys before. And the results will be the same as before.”

There are some things, though, that are quite different than the last time Mayweather went into the ring.

The opponent is Berto, not Pacquiao. There is little hype, and little chance Berto will rise to the occasion and become the first boxer to ever beat Mayweather as a pro.

Mayweather

Instead of $200 million, Mayweather will settle for a reported $32 million. And instead of seats going for thousands of dollars, there were still a lot of tickets for sale for just a few hundred dollars for a fight that is getting little buzz.

Not that Mayweather seemed terribly concerned about it.

“I just try to stay positive and keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best,” he said about the slow ticket sales.

The welterweight fight will be televised on pay-per-view for a suggested price of $74.95. Mayweather said again Tuesday that this will be his last fight, and he will not be tempted to break Rocky Marciano’s mark of 49-0 or to open the new arena on the Las Vegas Strip with a big bout next spring.

“I’m not breaking that 50-0,” Mayweather said. “Don’t worry about that.”

Mayweather defended his choice of Berto as an opponent, even though Berto has lost three of his past six fights, two of them to fighters Mayweather easily beat.

“He’s a former world champion so it’s obvious he did something right,” Mayweather said.

Mayweather said he was secure in his place in boxing history and wants to step back and promote other fighters.

“I’m really ready to see another fighter at the top,” he said. “I’ve done it all. I’ve broken so many records I don’t even know all the records I’ve broken.”
