(IB-January 12, 2009) Now that the Manny Pacquiao (50-3-2, 38 KO's) vs Joshua Clottey (35-3-0-1, 20 KO's) fight has been finalized for March 13, 2009 at the Dallas Cowboys owned stadium, all that's left is for boxing fans to decide who Floyd Mayweather, Jr. (40-0, 25KO's) would consider a legitimate opponent for his own anticipated match.
There currently seems to be much buzz that "Money" Mayweather will be fighting Nate Campbell (33-5-1-1, 25 KO's) sometime in March or April of 2009. This idea is just speculation but seems to be the much safer route for Mayweather, Jr. than the one taken by Pacquiao vs Clottey.
In Nate Campbell's' last fight, against Timothy Bradley, a cut over and behind Campbell's' left eye forced him to come to the conclusion he could not continue. Bradley was awarded a TKO victory but after debating the issue, The California State Athletic Commission declared the fight a draw. (more)
