Mayweather: Everyone has a remedy to beat me, they fail

LAS VEGAS - The countdown to "HIGH STAKES: Floyd "Money" Mayweather vs. Andre Berto" continued Tuesday afternoon as Floyd Mayweather and Andre Berto made their Grand Arrivals at MGM Grand in Las Vegas before their fight this Saturday, Sept. 12 live on SHOWTIME PPV® (8 p.m. E/5 p.m. PT) from the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
 
In what is expected to be the final fight of his illustrious 19-year career, boxing superstar and pound-for-pound king Mayweather (48-0, 26 KOs) will put his undefeated record and WBC and WBA Welterweight World Championships on the line against power-punching, two-time welterweight world champion Berto (30-3, 23 KOs).
 
Also making their Grand Arrivals Tuesday were the six other talented fighters who will compete on the four-fight pay-per-view telecast: Roman "Rocky" Martinez, Orlando "Siri" Salido, Badou Jack "The Ripper", "Saint" George Groves, Jhonny Gonzalez and Jonathan "Polvo" Oquendo.
 
"To become great, you have to follow greatness. To become a great leader you have to be a great follower. I want every fighter to stay focused and on a parallel path. I've done a lot for this sport. Everyone used to be focused on heavyweights. My ultimate goal was to have everyone focus at whatever weight class I was, in my weight class. I've always been able to make noise at whatever weight class I was in," Mayweather said.

"We want Andre to believe in himself and his skills. Every fighter that I've ever faced had the remedy to beat me, but the results have always been the same. I don't overlook anyone, he's a tough competitor, and we will just have to see what happens on Saturday.

"My ultimate goal is that we can find another Floyd Mayweather. When I turned professional I was a teenager and the MGM was Mike Tyson's building. I'm just blessed and I feel like I was dealt a royal flush."
