May Days

 

(Mayweather-Canelo, Siete. 14, 2013) — In a blockbuster megaevent billed as “El único,” Mayweather won an impressive 12-round decision over previously undefeated Canelo Alvarez in the then-highest-grossing pay-per-view and most profitable boxing event of all time. For the night’s work, Mayweather collected Canelo’s WBC, WBA and Ring Magazine Super Welterweight Championships.

 

(Mayweather-Maidana 1, Mayo 3, 2014) — Mayweather seized “The Moment” against Marcos Maidana, but it wasn’t easy. For a stirring moment – or two, in fact – it appeared the aggressive-minded Argentine might do the unthinkable — and deal Mayweather his first defeat. But the supremely skilled and savvy Mayweather rallied convincingly in the bout’s second half to take a 12-round majority decision.

(Mayweather-Pacquiao, Mayo 2, 2015) – Five-Division world champion Mayweather won a clear 12-round unanimous decision over Eight-Division world champion Manny Pacquiao in a record-shattering “Fight of the Century.” Regarded as one of the most anticipated sporting events of all time, Mayweather-Pacquiao demolished PPV records for buys, revenue, live gate and more. The fight nearly doubled the previous record of 2.48 million buys generated by the Mayweather-Oscar De La Hoya match in 2007 y casi triplicó el récord $150 millones en EE. UU.. pay-per-view revenue generated by Mayweather-Canelo in 2013. Dentro del ring, Floyd had his way throughout, winning by the scores of 118-110 y 116-112 dos veces,

 

(Siete. 12, 2015, Mayweather-Berto) – Mayweather went to 49-0, igualando el récord del fallecido campeón de peso pesado Rocky Marciano, with a dominant 12-round unanimous decision over Berto. In command throughout, “TBE” landed an impressive 56 por ciento (232/410) en golpes lanzados y 67 por ciento de sus golpes de poder (132/196) to triumph by the scores of 120-108, 118-110 y 117-111. If this was Mayweather’s last fight, as he’s said, then the maestro manufactured yet one last masterpiece.
