A 36 year and 38 year old, representing the cream of the sport..
I'm guessing that great fighters peak during their mid to late 20's. Hagler, Hearns, Leonard, Tyson

Something's gone terribly wrong with Boxing, surely ?

If you're not the man who beat the man who beat the man, then you're not really champion imo.

...it's being held in a 16,000 seated venue.

Of these seats, only 1,000 tickets went on sale to the general public.

Most of those tickets are being resold for ridiculous amounts of money.

Mayweather is about as interesting to watch as Chelsea.

Don't think I'll bother...

I loved watching him, a regular local hero too. Much like Michael Watson

and has not been defeated.

It's a superfight. Though it's a bit a late. There will only be one winner here.

And although boxing is not what it was. This will probably be one of the biggest if not biggest ever.

Surprised they didn't put it in a bigger venue but Vegas money talks,

The Marquis of Queensbury was an exception to be fair.

Then I looked at the picture. :-|

My dad told me he'd died, I assumed the lack of media attention was just that the world moved on.
