Floyd Mayweather Jr., the former pound for pound king, injured his rib cartilage. It wasn’t really stated how he got it but doctors disclose that the damage is real. He might have injured it during a heavy workout but this is just a wild guess for many.

Later, Golden Boy Promotion’s chief executive Richard Schaefer told the press that he got the injury during training and the scheduled fight between Mayweather Jr. and Marquez will be postponed and rescheduled. This is because Mayweather Jr. is no longer allowed by the doctor to jog; hit heavy bag’s and speed bags and other sorts of bodybuilding workouts. Schaefer also said that Mayweather Jr. tried to work it out but failed since the pain has worsen that even pain occurs when the boxer is sitting down thus the decision of the doctor.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. whose last fight was in 2007 (against Ricky Hatton) has to wait until the doctor gives the go signal to get back into training.

Now ever since the news broke out that the July collision of Mayweather Jr. and Marquez is on hold, people ahs now fixed there attention on the possible November brawl between Pacquiao and Cotto who just recently won over Joshua Clottey.

And since Pacquiao is now hailed as the new found for pound king, Mayweather might have to challenge Pacquiao soon to declared who the real pound for pound king is.
