This past weekend I caught up with junior middleweight contender Deandre Latimore moments after Abner Mares’ controversial majority decision victory over Joseph Agbeko at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. The recent news surrounding the St. Louis native has been his newfound involvement in the camp of Floyd Mayweahter Jr. as a sparring partner as ?Money? prepares for his September 17th date against Victor Ortiz.
The 25-year old Latimore doesn?t shy away from what the opportunity means.
?That?s a big deal for me,? said Latimore. ?It?s a pleasure to be in the camp with a guy like Floyd and it?s an honor to be in camp with a guy like Floyd. Victor is my boy and this is a business.?
