FLOYD MAYWEATHER SAYS HE'S ONLY DEFENDING WBC AND WBA WELTERWEIGHT TITLES

According to undefeated pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather, his WBC and WBA 147-pound titles will be the only belts on the line when he steps into the ring to face former welterweight champion Marcos Maidana this Saturday at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Mayweather informed FightHype.com of the news shortly after a visit to Fatburger following a late-night training session on Monday evening.

It was previously believed that Mayweather would defend both his WBC and WBA welterweight titles, along with his WBC jr. middleweight title, when his team reportedly made the request to the WBC to defend both of their titles simultaneously. However, Mayweather himself has disapproved of the idea, telling FightHype that he's only defending his WBC and WBA welterweight titles.
