California’s State Athletic Commission executive officer Andy Foster told MMAFighting.com: “He got a license today and a federal ID.
“He’s a California boxer now.”
“I’d love to see him fight in California. It just needs to be the right opponent. Certainly a high-level opponent. We’re happy to license him. We’re happy he’s a California fighter.”
Floyd Mayweather anyone?
