Shane Mosley is sure Floyd Mayweather Jr will fight again and believes a rematch between the pair would end in his favour.
Former three-weight world champion Mosley (48-9-1-KO40) fought Mayweather Jr (49-0-KO26) back in 2010 and wobbled 'Money' before suffering a points defeat - but claims he was injured at the time.
In an interview reported on World Boxing News, the 44-year-old 'Sugar' said: "I believe so, I believe Floyd will fight again.
When I fought him I was injured and I think if I fought him again I'd beat him. Even right now, as I'm actually getting better and better, so I want to show people that I can beat anybody.
"We've had Jose Lopez at 51-0 and Chavez was over 87-0 or towards 90-0 when he suffered his first loss, so Floyd is some way off that.
"When I fought him I was injured and I think if I fought him again I'd beat him. Even right now, as I'm actually getting better and better, so I want to show people that I can beat anybody out there - especially at welterweight.
"Now that I'm injury free and I can move, do stuff I couldn't do before maybe because of injuries. I feel a lot better now. I've been working during my time off and I feel a lot better. I'm looking phenomenal and I feel great."
Mayweather Jr officially bowed out of the sport on September 12 when he cruised to a wide points win over Andre Berto but Mosley, who returned from nearly two years out of the ring by stopping fellow veteran Ricardo Mayorga in August, was unimpressed.
He added: "I definitely believe I could have done a better job than Andre Berto did against Floyd. Andre Berto fought a good fight though and he fought better than I've seen him fight. He has a lot of strength and power, but I hit a lot harder than he does - especially at welterweight."
