Floyd Mayweather Jr. owes Juan Manual Marquez $600K after weighing two pounds overweight - ESPN
Maybe it's just me, but I wouldn't pay whatever HBO or whoever is charging now a days to see Mayweather fight. Just not that exciting of a fighter to me.
But anyway, opinions? Just couldn't sweat it out real quick before going to be weighed in?
LAS VEGAS -- Floyd Mayweather Jr. weighed in at 146 pounds on Friday afternoon, two pounds heavier than the weight stipulated in the contract for his comeback fight against lightweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez on Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
The excess weight will cost Mayweather $300,000 per pound, meaning Marquez will get an additional $600,000 on top of his $3.2 million guarantee, a source told ESPN.com. Mayweather's minimum guarantee is $10 million, a figure likely to dramatically increase after the pay-per-view receipts are counted.
