SAN FRANCISCO, MEGIS (Gorffennaf 6, 2015) – After pound for pound king Floyd “Arian” Mayweather (48-0, 26 Kos) mentioned Karim “Dod o hyd Caled” Mayfield (19-2-1, 11 Kos) fel un o'i wrthwynebwyr posibl am ei olaf ar gontract ymladd gyda Showtime, y brodor San Francisco yn dweud yn barod i gamu i fyny ac i roi ei golled cyntaf Mayweather.

 

“Rwyf bob amser yn barod i ymladd unrhyw un yn unrhyw le,” meddai'r Karim Mayfield. “The fact that the great Floyd Mayweather has mentioned me as someone he wants to fight in September is music to my ears. It would be an honor to fight Floyd in Las Vegas. He’s done a lot for the sport and he’s arguably the best fighter to ever lace em up. My last few fights have been at 140 punnoedd ac rwy'n gwybod y bydd y pwysau ychwanegol yn fy ngwneud i'n fwy pwerus. I fought Francisco Santana at 152 bunnoedd a roi ei unig golled KO iddo. Rwy'n bwerus ac yn gyfforddus ar y pwysau iawn. I know I would give Floyd all he can handle. Mae fy hyfforddwr Ben Bautista and I have a game plan we know will be successful against Mayweather. I’d give Floyd his first loss in a highly explosive fight.”

 

A osodwyd ar gyfer Medi 12, 2015, Mayweather will fight an opponent TBA at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas. Mayfield, ynghyd â Andre Berto (30-3, 23 Kos) yn diffoddwyr Floyd Mayweather wedi crybwyll fel gwrthwynebwyr posibl. Karim feels he’s the better option.

 

“Dim diffyg parch i Andre Berto, ei fod yn ymladdwr da ac mae gennym barch at ei gilydd, ond nad oedd yn mor wydn ag yr wyf yn. Berto has two losses against opponent’s Floyd has already defeated. I’ve never been dropped, cytew neu gleisio mewn unrhyw un o fy ymladd. Rwy'n dod arddull bras i frwydr hon, arddull y cefnogwyr am weld Floyd i fyny yn erbyn. Yn ogystal,, the Bay Area is a big media market and I know all my fans here would rise up and support me. My brother La Ron and I, sy'n annibynnol, sold out my last fight in San Francisco. I’m confident we can bring a big crowd to Las Vegas. It’s only an hour fight away.”

 

Amir Khan (31-3, 19 Kos), sydd wedi bod yn cardota i ymladd Mayweather ers 2014, is another fighter campaigning to fight Mayweather. After sparring Khan on numerous occasions, Mayfield teimlo Amir yn frwydr haws.

 

“Bob tro rwy'n sparred Amir Khan yn Virgil Hunter campfa, Rwy'n rhoi ddwylo arno,” Datganodd Mayfield. “So bad that Virgil had to stop the sparring sessions. Khan has also been brutally knocked out twice by Prescott and Garcia. The man has no chin and he wouldn’t last twelve rounds with Money Mayweather. He’s definitely the safer route.”

 

Mayfield, who’s been in camp with Manny Pacquiao, Antonio Margarito ac Danny Garcia i enwi ond ychydig, has all the experience needed to give the fans an entertaining fight. He’s beaten many undefeated fighters and has a unanimous decision win against Mauricio Herrera.

 

“Ni all unrhyw un wadu fy nghalon a phenderfyniad i frwydro yn erbyn y gorau,” Mayfield parhad. “Rwyf wedi bod y cylch gyda phawb. Yr wyf yn gadarn guro Herrera, I whooped Pacquiao and Khan in sparring. Shawn Porter refused to step in the ring when he had the choice to fight me or Erick Esgyrn with only one day notice. Mae llawer o ddiffoddwyr wedi gwadu mi gan fy mod yn fygythiad difrifol i unrhyw un.”

 

Mayfield feels the fans want to see Floyd Mayweather give an African-American fighter a chance to dethrone him. Mayweather’s last seven opponents have been either, Mecsicanaidd, Ariannin, Tagalog neu Puerto Rica.

 

“Rwy'n credu ei bod yn amser ar gyfer y cefnogwyr i weld Floyd rhoi ergyd a brotha.” Mayfield casgliad. “Shane Mosley ac Zab Jwda gave Floyd a run for his money. I feel I can do the same but come out victorious.”
