“And guess what, I’m a old man,” Mayweather said. “I’m a old man. I’m not even the same man I was 20 years ago. I’m not the same fighter I was 10 years ago. I’m not the same fighter I was five years ago. I’m not the same fighter I was two years ago. But, I got enough to beat you. And, we know Mr. tapout like to quit and you will wave that white flag. And I’m guaranteeing you this. You’re going out on your face or you’re going out on your back. Now which way you want to go?”
