Here's what Mayweather said to Gray on the PPV:

"That's what boxing is about, the best fighting the best. I've been in the sport now 17 years. I've been in some tough fights. I'm prepared to go out there and entertain. I'm pretty sure he's doing the same."

"I think my hand should hold up. I keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best."
