Veteran cutman Rafael Garcia, who works closely with WBC/WBA welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr., says finding the next opponent for the pound-for-pound king will be tough - because he says all of the remaining options will be very big underdogs.
Mayweather, who finally fought and decisioned Manny Pacquuao on May 2nd, is hoping to return on September 12th, which he says is his final contest. Garcia has worked with Mayweather for over 15 years and sees him beating every possible opponent with ease.
Garcia says all of the big names, like Saul "Canelo" Alvarez, Miguel Cotto and now even Manny Pacquiao - have all been defeated.
"I think anyone who they put him in with will be fine, but the problem is that I think it will be an easy win, because all of the best have been put in front of him and he's beaten them. Pacquiao said he was the best of all [the possible options] and look what happened," said Garcia to ESPN Deportes.
"What happens is that Floyd is a good boy who everybody wants to beat at all costs - give him head butts, elbows, knees, but no one has been able to [beat him] because he is so intelligent and knows how to move at the right moment."
