He was asked how long he planned to keep boxing and said 30 months.
When asked about facing Guerrero, Mayweather offered some praise of his opponent.
“Robert Guerrero, he’s solid. He’s a solid, tough competitor. He’s a very very busy fighter. He’s strong, he’s solid, and we’ll see what he brings to the table,” said Mayweather.
The undefeated champion would not divulge his gameplan, but he did cite his father’s advice.
“My dad truly believes the less you get hit, the longer you last in the sport. I’ve been able to last in the sport 17 years, which is a great thing.”
