Just plain dumb.


A $20 million payday awaits the undefeated WBC welterweight champion, Floyd Mayweather, when he takes on Big Show as part of WWE's "WrestleMania XXIV" at Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Fla., on March 30.

"It's entertainment. You have a chance to just be you and do what you want to do," Mayweather said Monday after a chaotic Staples Center event that masqueraded as a news conference.

At 5-foot-8, 150 pounds, Mayweather gives up big numbers to the bald Big Show, who stands 7-feet and weighs 430. "I weigh three times as much as he does," Big Show said. "It's not fair, but I'm a businessman and I see an opportunity for business."

This Big Show guy is effin huge. Does Mayweather get to use an axe or a bat. Does he get to chloroform Big Show first? Oh wait, did we forget that WWE was effin fake?

I think it'd be funnier if Mayweather got to sleep with Big Show's daughter (if he has one). Call me somebody who stereotypes, but I'm assuming Big Show is a huge redneck with a huge redneck fan base. According to my pretend encyclopedia, the only thing redneck's hate more than black people, are black people sleeping with their kids.

Now that's entertainment.

Pretty Boy Floyd

Floyd Mayweather Jr. outfought Ricky Hatton in their heavily hyped bout Saturday night for the WBC welterweight title, stopping him at 1:35 of the 10th round via TKO.
Mayweather knocked Hatton down twice in the 10th. He landed a left hook in the corner that landed on the jaw. Hatton went head first into the corner pad and then was down. He was in serious jeopardy of not making it up. Mayweather attacked as soon as Hatton got back to his feet, and landed two lefts and a right and Hatton was down again. His corner threw in the towel and referee Joe Cortez waved it off.

Where the hell was this Mayweather when he fought De La Hoya? He remembered to hit Hatton, as unfortunate as that may be for Ricky. While this fight may have been more action packed and entertaining than the Mayweather/De La Hoya bought, the 24-7 eps on HBO were nowhere near as entertaining without Floyd Sr. and not enough Roger Mayweather. I just can't get over the broken English and punch drunk view of the world. Pure entertainment.
