One thing that was for certain during Floyd Mayweather?s recent hiatus from the sport, aside from the mounting legal and personal issues he had going on, was just how much the undefeated star truly missed the sport. His announcement of his September 17th fight against Victor Ortiz couldn?t have come soon enough for his fans, as he will challenge the WBC welterweight champion inside of the MGM Grand in another pivotal fight in his career.
At the moment Las Vegas is wrapped up in another big fight week with WBA junior welterweight champion Amir Khan set to square off with dangerous veteran and IBF kingpin Zab Judah this Saturday inside the Mandalay Bay. Knowing when to strike iron when it?s hot and showing some international appeal, Mayweather invited the British fans in town in support of Khan over to his gym today for an open workout.
