BREAKING NEWS

It is now official, pound for pound king Floyd Mayweather (46-0, 26 KO) has his opponent when he returns to the ring on September 13th.  Apparently many people didn't think Mayweather's defeat of Marcos Maidana (35-4, 31 KO) was decisive enough because the two men will once again do battle in what should be a highly anticipated rematch.  As per usual for a Mayweather event the fight will take place at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas and should feature a star studded undercard.  Fans will remember Mayweather won the first fight by majority decision and Maidana gave him his toughest fight in years.  In their first fight there was a lot of controversy over what type of gloves Maidana would wear and he eventually had to use a backup pair.  This time around the fight should be controversy free and while Mayweather Promotions chief executive declined to get into specifics he did say that "we have a document and if Maidana wants to talk about it fine.  They won't be using no horse hair gloves, but I don't want to get into specifics."  Regardless of what gloves are used it should be another action packed fight.
