We put it all on the line in the first fight. The fans demanded the rematch so we owe it to them to put it all on the line again. Maidana\u2019s rugged. He\u2019s a cool fighter and we\u2019ll see how it plays out on Saturday.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have to focus on my fight. I can\u2019t focus on anything else going on, I have a tough fighter in front me and he needs all my focus. We\u2019ve had a remarkable training camp. Truly unbelievable. I feel a lot stronger than last time. It\u2019s about hard work, dedication, prayers, belief and a good team. I know I\u2019m almost 40, but I\u2019m still going strong. I want to go out there and perform.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe first fight was very interesting. Hopefully this time around the fight is even more exciting. Maidana is always in top shape. He absolutely deserves this rematch. I commend him for stepping up and making it happen again. I\u2019m a true champion and a true champion never backs down. I need a knockout and I\u2019m going for it. I need it to make a statement. First for myself, I want to do it for me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRobert Garcia can say what he wants to say. My dad can say what he wants to say. Both teams can go back and forth and bicker all day. In the end it comes down to skills, smarts and adjustments. We sparred with some guys who have similar styles to Maidana\u2019s. Guys who threw a lot of looping, wild shots. Very strong rugged guys. We had a lot of good solid work with these guys. I don\u2019t know who has the advantage in the rematch. I know I\u2019m sharp, I know he\u2019s sharp. I was able to make the adjustments in the first fight and we\u2019ll see if he can make the adjustments this time.<\/p>\n<p>[Clarifying his comment on the Ray Rice issue] \u201cI don\u2019t condone what happened. If I offended anyone, I apologize. I have this tough, rugged fighter in front of me and that\u2019s what I have to focus on. I\u2019m not perfect, I make mistakes and I don\u2019t condone that at all.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tune in and watch the fight because I\u2019m going to be Floyd Mayweather and do what I do best and come out and win,\u201d stated WBA\/WBC welterweight and super welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather on Wednesday. \u201cI\u2019ve been here before and I know what it takes to win at this level.
