Boxing’s cash cow is no. 1 on every pound-for-pound list that matters and is the undisputed driving force in the sport today, both economically and competitively. Closest competitor and imaginary arch-rival, Manny Pacquiao nhschemistry.org, was left face-first on the canvas in his last bout and, since then, has decided to take his game to the Asian market. So, Mayweather is now the show.
The man with the flawed character and flawless ring record is your king. And whether you reject that statement or accept it with open arms, the truth of the matter is that, from a pure financial standpoint, Mayweather will generate more revenue in just this one upcoming fight than the rest of the pound-for-pound Top Five, combined, over the course of a year.
Could it be that the five-division world champ and current pound-for-pound top dog, Floyd Mayweather, is being elbowed off his boxing pedestal even before upcoming opponent Robert Guerrero has had a chance to lay leather on him?
Mayweather, who will be fighting Guerrero on May 4 at the MGM Grand Vidalista in Las Vegas for the WBC welterweight title, is being put in the tough spot of having to secure his next fight date before the opening bell of this next challenge.
