TMZ.com, the popular celebrity news site, has obtained a leaked list of the contestants for the next season of ABC's "Dancing with The Stars," and WBC welterweight champ "Pretty Boy" Floyd Mayweather Jr. is on the list.

For months, there were whispers that Mayweather would be a contestant on the show, but there was no confirmation as ABC kept the names under lock and key. Former four-time heavyweight champ Evander Holyfield was the first boxer to appear on the show and now Mayweather follows his lead.

Not a bad move by the pound-for-pound fighter in the world since the reality program is one of the most popular shows on television.

The full list, according to TMZ, are Aaron Carter, billionaire Mark Cuban, former Spelling co-star Jennie Garth, "Incredible Hulk" Lou Ferrigno, Nia Peeples, CNN correspondent Richard Quest, model Giselle Bundchen, racer Helio Castroneves, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and "Cheetah Girls" star Sabrina Bryan.

The official announcement of contestants is going to be made on ABC on Wednesday.
