Noons: 'I want Mayweather next'

source: steverattlesnake

“You know, I would be shocked if Mayweather didn’t take a fight before fighting someone of Manny’s caliber. I have said it once and I will say it again, I would love to be Floyd Mayweather’s next fight. I think we match up well stylistically. I think the fact that I am a former MMA champion with a boxing resume is marketable and most importantly, I will take any drug test offered to make the fight happen. If I’m Floyd Mayweather, I look at the way MMA did James Toney and I would want to represent my sport.

They didn’t do James any favors. They didn’t put Toney in against the best striker that MMA had to offer. Instead, they put him in with the most experienced grappler in the game. Well, just like Toney was willing to go into MMA and fight the best, I’m willing to go into boxing and do the same. I want to fight the best boxing has to offer and that’s Floyd Mayweather.

Of course I can see where he's coming from, that fighting Mayweather would be good for his career regardless of the fact that he'd be knocked out in the first round, but he's out of his damn mind for talking about it like it's anywhere near the realm of possibility.

would love to hear Mayweather's reaction to this.

This is definitely a joke, but sadly we'd probably see Noons get to fight Mayweather before "Money" finally agrees to fight Pacman. The way things are going for Mayweather lately though, he'll be getting called "Pretty Boy" a lot more from behind bars with the shit he's been up to.

Noons via high kick

How does he feel that he qualifies for this. Maybe if Frankie Edgar asked for it. But that doesn't make sense either. Kj needs to win like 13-14 more in a row in boxing and hold an MMA title.

Sadly he's actually ranked like 68th or 75th. Boxing talent pool is deep but not that deep.
