Floyd Mayweather is unquestionably one of the world’s best-known athletes.
His fights are big-time sporting events, regularly attended by the likes of Jack Nicholson, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and Leonardo Di Caprio, and provide a huge boost to the Las Vegas economy as tens of thousands flock to Sin City to revel in the big occasion. This will again be the case on Saturday as millions await his rematch with tough Argentine Marcos Maidana.
Mayweather, for so long a fighter who seemed nigh-on untouchable in the ring, last fought in May, and although he was rightly awarded the decision many were surprised to see him struggle to suppress Maidana’s fearless challenge. It is too early to assume that Mayweather – now 37 – is now in decline, but he is certainly nearing the end of a glittering career of almost unparalleled success.

Manny Pacquiao is no doubt a lock for the boxing hall of fame; he quite rightly will go down as one of the greatest pound for pound fighters of all time. Many of us will remember the nights where he pummelled Oscar De La Hoya for 8 punishing rounds and sending the all-time great American in to retirement, or the night where he knocked Ricky Hatton unconscious in front of a raucous crowd at the MGM Grand, sending the likeable Mancunian into an early retirement also. Perhaps many will remember him as a hero, and remember him for the punishment he administered to Antonio Margarito following his return from the ban he received for wearing illegal hand wraps against Shane Mosley in 2009.
Some other notable victims of the lightning quick Pacman’s fists of fury were Cotto, Margarito, Clottey, Morales and Mosley to name just a few.

Paris Hilton and her sister Nicky Hilton were part of the sold-out crowd cheering on Manny Pacquiao at the MGM Grand Arena, where he defeated American boxer Shane Mosley after 12 rounds to retain the Wbo (World Boxing Association) welterweight title.
After staying behind to watch a post-fight news conference, the heiress turned from fan to friend after she was introduced to Pacquiao and his wife Jinkee.
In a series of posts on her Twitter page, Hilton writes, "Pacquiao is the champion! Pac Man is an incredible fighter! Hanging out with Manny Pacquiao and his beautiful wife Jinkee. They are such a sweet & down to earth couple! Love them!"
"Wow! Such an honor to be brought on stage by Manny & his wife Jinkee after the fight."
Hilton even made plans to visit the world champion when she next visits his native country, adding, "Can't wait to visit them when I go to the Philippines!

Dr. Dre and Eminem used the hype behind Saturday night's (May 7) Manny Pacquiao vs. "Sugar" Shane Mosley title fight, one of the year's most anticipated boxing matches, to their advantage. Dre premiered "Die Hard," the latest single from his forthcoming Detox album, on Friday night's finale of Showtime's "Fight Camp 360°: Pacquiao vs. Mosley."
"Die Hard" started playing as the episode came to its conclusion, and it matched up with the four-episode documentary-style show's look into the boxers' preparations for their welterweight title fight.
