In a recent interview with CBS Sports to help hype his September 19th bout against Juan Manuel Marquez, Floyd Mayweather Jr held back absolutely no punches in discussing Boxing vs UFC.

In what is sure to stir up great debate, Floyd Mayweather Jr. dissed MMA (UFC), stating it takes someone with true skills to compete in boxing, whereas beer drinkers compete in MMA. "It takes true skills to be in the sport of Boxing," stated Mayweather Jr., adding: "and Mixed Martial Arts is for Beer drinkers."

Floyd Mayweather Jr. did not stop there, he likened MMA as to what is done to caged animals. "Boxing is for everybody... I mean you can't take my shoes off and take my shirt off and just throw me in a cage... you do that with animals, you don't do that with humans," said Mayweather Jr.
