Forget MMA - Mayweather is going to WWE
BY MIKE ROSE
Apparently, Floyd Mayweather Jr. wanted to be shown the money. And the WWE delivered.
According to an AP story, Mayweather Jr., the undefeated WBC welterweight champion, will get a $20 million payday 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 told the AP on Monday after a chaotic Staples Center event that masqueraded as a news conference.
Interesting stat: Mayweather is 5-foot-8 and 150 pounds; Big Show stands 7-feet and weighs 430.
