Floyd Mayweather chose not to face one boxing legend, according to Roy Jones Jr.
In his career, ‘Money’ proved himself to be one of the most gifted practitioners of ‘the sweet science’ to have ever walked the face of the Earth.
Mayweather destroyed Philip N’dou with a massive shot and knocked out the great Ricky Hatton.
However, in the eyes of his countryman, he went out of his way to steer clear of a very quick fighter.

Roy Jones Jr. believes Floyd Mayweather made the call to duck Amir Khan.
‘Captain Hook’ claims the Brit would’ve caused the slick boxer major problems.
In an interview with Ring Champs with Ak and Barak, he said: “Hey, in my opinion, the only person that really had a chance in his weight class back then was Amir Khan, he wouldn’t touch Amir Khan at that time.
“Amir had two good feet. He wouldn’t fight Amir Khan.”
