What is going to happen with Mayweather and the Wrestling?

[Stormin' Norman]

Floyd Mayweather Jr is one of my favorite fighters. I see alot of posts on here about how he fights dirty but that's just what you gotta do. It ain't ballet. U gotta put some hurt on the other guy, any which way u can. Hopkins does the same ****.

Anyways, I have a bad feeling for some reason about Mayweather and Big Show...In the history of the sport when boxers do other things, almost always something bad happens...a good example is when ali fought that asian guy who laid down and constantly kicked ali's shins.... ali's footwork seemed diminished after that match.

Last night I had a dream that mayweather got power bombed and his neck got broken...it really scared me. i think big show is going to try to do something drastic, since mw broke his nose. I honestly wish mw would just pull out and say **** it and refocus on boxing, but that ain't happening...20 mil is in the balance.

Rest ASSURED, Floyd Wouldn't B Doing this if he Could Get HURT...Sure, there's the Chance of a FREAK Accident, but there's No Way Big Show is Gonna Powerbomb Floyd or Anything like that...

@ Most, he Might LIFT Floyd Over his Head, then Put him Back Down...

REED has to Admit he's INTRIGUED by How WWE is Gonna Make a "Fight" Work btwn a 7ft, 400 lb Man & a 5'8, 147 lb Man...But Floyd & Big Show R Probably PRACTICING What they'll Do was we Type...

The whole match will be scripted

You really think there gonna unleash a 7 foot 500 pound pro wrestler on a 5'8 150 pound boxer?


The entire event is scripted...

Not only scripted, but carefully rehearsed. Pro wrestling has used guest celebrities for many years, and I can't remember even one that was injured in the show.

I know it's scripted, just like any other kind of wrestling

but, since mw made such a joke outta Fat Show, i just have a feeling something out of the ordinary will happen. i mean, that event was scripted, and mayweather dropped liek 4 shots on the guy...so, it makes me wonder.

this whole thing is embarrassing to boxing. on the up side maybe we'll get some more kids involved in boxing since I assume that's mostly who watches wrestling.

Show is known as being a tough guy (he's actually been boxing during his WWE hiatus). It wouldn't surprise me if a guy the size of Paul Wight with his known tough guy image in the industry allowed Mayweather to hit him a few times to add something to this whole angle.

OK, I'm not saying that he wanted to get his nose broken, but a black eye and a cut mouth would have worked well - and if you're being paid $ X million per year it's probably something The Show could live with!

The WWE will not risk injuring Mayweather, and Paul Wight is too much of a professional to risk doing something silly. It's all an angle my friend. Very rarely do things go off track and if they do, the wrestler is usually outcast. Look at New Jack and the Mass Transit incident, or Bradshaw and the Blue Meanie a few years ago. It happens, but there's no way a celebrity like Mayweather will be put in harms way.

I used to be a big fan of pro wrestling, mostly 80's and early 90's, so here's what I think. Of course, Mayweather will not be in a real fight as it is impossible due to the big size difference, but proud wrestlers(I don't know how proud Wight might be these days with all the money involved) don't take it well when someone from another field wants to take over or diminish their business. For example, if Mayweather is given a favorable script with a triumphant ending, there's a chance he will run his mouth about how dominant he was in a sport he did not even care much about and that makes WWE look like more of a joke. There's also people(not much I hope) who think that pro wrestling is real and it would look horrible to have a 5'8" guy giving a 7 footer a beating. Besides, it's not credible. A heavyweight like Wladimir could be and I think he would give Wight or anyone in the pro wrestling world a real life beating, but the guy who will go for it is a welterweight. I can see Wight working stiff(this means he might slam him against the mat in a hard way or perhaps a hard chop to the chest or something along those lines) to teach him a lesson and make him respect the sport.
