    That's the most likely scenario.

    Why in blue hell is this “fight” getting coverage from legit media?

    Why indeed.

    Because it's the first "fight" in years where a sizable percentage of the population has actually heard of both guys.

    Floyd will throw a few punches, won't get hit, let it go the distance and then go deposit the check. Easy money.

    From everything I've heard, that's exactly what happened.

    The fight might have been more exciting if one of the boxer’s managers had tried to hit the other boxer with a folding chair.

    When MLB has celebrities play a softball game during All-Star weekend, it never gets a fraction of the coverage. I guess a promoter needs to get George Clooney to box somebody from Top Chef. It would be the biggest event of the year.

    If we're going by that math question and (unseen) logic ...

    Paul lasted all 8 with Mayweather.

    Paul didn't get knocked down by Mayweather

    No judges or scoring for this fight.

    Paul beat Mayweather = 12!

    This was supposed to be a busy weekend for boxing. It just got a little less busy.
