Floyd Mayweather Jr. announces today on his twitter account that he will face WBC Welterweight Champion Victor Ortiz on Sept. 17 (check out boxlink's previous post about this rumored fight here: http://grsg03.blogspot.com/2011/05/latest-news-manny-pacquiao-will-fight.html ).
Mayweather made the announcement official to more than 1.25 million followers of his official twitter account. "My fans have been waiting long enough. Floyd Mayweather vs Victor Ortiz. Sept 17 2011 for the WBC World Championship."
Floyd's last fight was in May 2010 against Shane Mosley in which Mayweather won via a lopsided Unanimous Decision. Victor Ortiz recently won the WBC belt against former champion Andre Berto last April.
The Mayweather vs Ortiz fight will likely to take place at the Cowboy Stadium in Arlington, Texas where Manny Pacquiao fought twice. -grsg03/boxlink
