With the date and venue already inked in, five-division world champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. has asked his fans on social media to choose his next opponent from either Britain's Amir Khan or Marcos Maidana of Argentina.

Mayweather, who outboxed Mexican Saul Canelo Alvarez in his most recent bout in September, has a perfect 45-0 record and is expected to announce shortly who he will fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on May 3.

"I'm going to let the fans vote. Tell me who I should fight next. Khan or Maidana?" Mayweather posted on his personal Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts on Monday.

Nicknamed "Money" for his flamboyant and often extravagant lifestyle, Mayweather is known for his creative stunts and his taking to social networks for advice on his next opponent comes as no surprise. Though many boxing fans would love to see Filipino southpaw Manny Pacquiao take on the American in what has long been a heavily anticipated matchup, Khan and Maidana now appear to be the two most logical options.
