Floyd Mayweather To Fight Andre Berto Says TMZ

There is a lot of buzz going around the internet as to who Floyd Mayweather will fight next after his disappointing fight with Manny Pacquiao. According to TMZ, the top candidate is Andre Berto.
Floyd Mayweather vs. Andre Berto
“It’s on … Floyd Mayweather is officially set to square off with Andre Berto in September … TMZ Sports has confirmed.”
While it is not officially official, TMZ Sports claims to have a confirmation from both Mayweather and Berto that this fight will happen. According to his Twitter, Berto is in fact training for something. This is a surprising choice to those who follow the sport closely, not because Andre Berto is necessarily a bad fighter but because there are a slew of fighters who would clearly be a better match for the champion.

It is definitely arguable that fighters like Amir Khan (31-3, 19 knockouts), Keith Thurman (26-0, 22KOs), and Gennady Golovkin (33-0, 30 KOs) would make for a better match than Andre Berto (30-3, 23 KOs). Instead, TMZ confirms, Floyd Mayweather has finalized talks to complete his larger-than-life contract with Showtime and potentially end his Hall of Fame career with the same mark as Rocky Marciano by fighting Andre Berto in this next match. Andre Berto is a former world title holder who has beaten fighters like Steve Forbes, Juan Urango, and Luis Collazo. While he is an accomplished fighter with a solid record, some would argue that it is a “waste of time” for Mayweather to go from fighting Pacuiao to fighting Berto on September 12th.
The story is still developing.
