- Floyd Mayweather has stepped up his training ahead of September fight
- Andre Berto is a leading contender for Mayweather's next opponent
- Danny Garcia says he won't chase a huge payday with the Money Man
- Orange Is The New Black actress Ruby Rose visited Mayweather's gym
Floyd
Mayweather is showing no signs of letting up ahead of what might be his
last fight this September, sharing with his army of fans precisely what
it takes to be the pound-for-pound boxing king.
As
speculation intensifies over the identity of Mayweather's opponent on
September 12, the 38-year-old only had eyes for another gruelling
workout at his personal gym.
And he was visited by star of American comedy-drama series Orange Is The New Black Ruby Rose, who witnessed the session.
Mayweather
was put through his paces ahead of his bout at the MGM Grand Arena in
Las Vegas, but former WBC light welterweight champion Danny Garcia
believes it is unlikely to be his last.

'I do not think he is going to retire,' Garcia told ESPN Deportes. 'There's too much money to be made. That could be [a fight for me]. Anything can happen in boxing.'
Garcia
has moved up to welterweight and faces his division debut against
veteran Paulie Malignaggi on August 1. The undefeated American expects
Mayweather to continue his career beyond his September fight - but he
won't chase a huge payday with the Money Man.
'At
the end of the day there are hundreds of fighters that challenge
Mayweather,' Garcia added. 'He's Mayweather. He is the source of income.
He can basically pick whoever he wants to fight.
'So I can call out his name or just remain silent and let it happen. If it is meant to happen, then it is bound to happen.'

Andre
Berto is a leading contender at this time for Mayweather's next
opponent, with the 31-year-old talking up the possible fight on boxingscene.com earlier this week.
'I
am happy to be in the running for this fight and am definitely up for
the challenge. I know it will be a great fight if it happens,' said
Berto.
Amir
Khan, Canelo Alvarez, Timothy Bradley, Keith Thurman and Kell Brook are
among the other names who would want to step in the ring.
Mayweather will ultimately have the final say on who he fights next but Andre Berto is a leading contender
The Money Man posted this picture on Instagram with the cryptic caption: 'September 12th. Whose next??'
But
Mayweather will ultimately have the final say - as he did when he
invited Orange Is The New Black actress Ruby Rose to his gym following
his latest public workout.
The
visit came after police arrested a man at Ruby's Los Angeles home on
Thursday in response to the star reporting a gunman on the loose in her
backyard.
Naturally, a trip to witness a man undefeated in his 49 career fights to date was more than welcome.
