Having already traded blows in court, it’s only fitting that Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao finally face off inside the ring.
On Friday, the two prizefighters announced they had agreed upon the terms for a May 2 brawl at the MGM Grand hotel and casino in Las Vegas, one that could become the richest fight in history should it bring in the estimated $400 million in gross revenue that some prognosticators are already forecasting for the bout.
