Spence dodged a bullet Sept 12, 2015

There was no bullet to dodge...Mayweather never said Spence. He said it was either Andre Berto or Kareem Mayfield.

I need help finding an interview of Floyd Mayweather, after the pacman win, a little after the Rousey beef, around July- August 2015. I do not recall who was interviewing him, but the sept date was set and Floyd was taking his time announcing his "last" fight. I remember he was asked if he had fighters in talks at least.. he said he narrowed it down to Andre Berto or Errol Spence Jr, to which the interviewer kinda laughed at his picks and said something like "c'mon,are you serious?" Floyd got visibly upset at the reaction the guy had to his picks.
Anyways at that particular time Nobody wanted to see him fight either guy, but the people did not know about the "good work" Spence had given him before in camp.
2 things..
I want to review that video if anyone can find it, AND
Did SPENCE DODGE A BULLET? Would Spence have lost to the Floyd that beat Berto on September 12, 2015?

I remember now. It was Karim Mayfield.

At this point I just want to see the interview again where he names his 2 options.... yall remember the interview but nobody remembers the "other guy", im 98% sure it was ERROL SPENCE JR

This is not the interview, has to be another, the reporter and him were alone, on a set... Man this is making me doubt though...

I do recall that there was another interview with Mayweather and Spence together addressing the media. Spence was talking about an upcoming fight with someone, but he slipped up and said, "Of course I want to fight Floyd." He meant to say the other guy's name.

Floyd immediately laughed and said, "Stop calling out the old man," and Spence corrected himself and said he meant someone else.


Other than that, I don't think I've ever heard these two linked for a professional bout. I could be wrong, but really doubt he ever mentioned Spence for a fight. It was always Berto or Mayfield.

I remember this! I think it was that time Mayweather was saying Thurman should fight Spence because Thurman was calling out Floyd and that's when the whole Thurman-Spence thing started.

they didnt know who spence was. berto was old and over the hill so of course floyd went with him instead of hte guy he knew was good and was going to be a top fighter. floyd dodged a bullet but he dodged them his entire career. thats the whole point. dodge the bullets and get the duds

😂😂this is too easy.

Floyd doesn't fight young hungry fighter who will one day be a top fighter in Spence. And gets criticized

Rewind two years prior...

Floyd fights young hungry fighter who will one day be a top fighter on Canelo. And gets criticized

This was around that time, but Thurman started talking Mayweather because Guerrero got a shot at Money just by talking mess, completely unproven at Welterweight and Thurman was mad, he started talking like "I burn Money" ... Floyd was not for that.
Im still looking though...
