Jeff Mayweather on why Amir Khan is overrated, Cotto-Margarito II, and more

Earlier this week I touched bases with Las Vegas-based trainer Jeff Mayweather, who gave his thoughts on the recent trilogy bout between Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez as well as his feelings if we will ever see a fight between his nephew Floyd Mayweather Jr. against Pacquiao.
