Mayweather ready to join greats

Floyd Mayweather believes he will rightly be remembered as one of the greatest fighters of all time if he beats Juan Manuel Marquez.
The six-time world champion steps out of retirement to face the battle-hardened Mexican - a five-time world champion himself in three weight divisions - in a hotly-anticipated fight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on September 19.

Undefeated world champion Mayweather believes victory over Marquez will cement his status in the top bracket of boxing's greatest fighters, past and present, and he is relishing the chance to join the legends of the sport.

The 32-year-old said: "To be labelled as one of the best fighters of all time, to go down in history as one of the best, you have to fight the best fighters in your era - and he's one of the best fighters in my era.

"I'm just training getting ready for September 19. I'm staying focused, me and my team are just preparing, we'll take one day at a time until we get to where we want to get to."
