Floyd Mayweather's tweet on Twitter
Top ranked boxer Floyd Mayweather took to social networking
today informing fans he is asking the public who he should fight
next, Amir Khan or Marcos Maidana. Many flooded Mayweather's social
networking pages with
their responses regarding their favorite match up. Of course, Manny
Pacquiao is everyone's top choice, but as his contract with
Mayweather's adversary Bob Arum will not expire before May 2014, the
month of Mayweather's next fight, Khan and Maidana are top choice.

Khan, the former
champ, should be Mayweather's first choice for the fight. Khan has been training in
anticipation of the bout, even in spite of the fact Mayweather taunted him
in an interview that no
contract has been signed between them, contrary to what he alleges Khan stated
to the press (Floyd Mayweather Slams Manny Pacquiao And Clowns Amir Khan Stating
He's Lying About Boxing Contract To Fight Him).

Maidana recently beat one of Mayweather's Money Team
members, Adrien Broner. However, it was not without controversy, as
his corner (Alex Ariza) was seen discreetly slipping Maidana a pill
during the fight. The website TMZ stated the incident is being investigated by
the Texas Boxing Commission. Until that incident is sorted,
Khan should definitely be the first choice.
