    Comments Thread For: Mayweather Granted License For May 2 Showdown

    The promotion remains a battle of egos, but another hurdle has been cleared in moving forward with the big May 2 event in Las Vegas, Nevada. Floyd Mayweather was cleared for a boxing license by the Nevada State Athletic Commission, the last required step on his behalf to proceed with his upcoming titanic showdown with Manny Pacquiao at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

    Mayweather was required to appear before the commission as standard requirement for any fighter over the age of 35 seeking a boxing license—original or renewal—in the state of Nevada. His request was met with unanimous approval by the NSAC five-person panel during the commission’s monthly agenda hearing Tuesday morning in Las Vegas.

              I barely skimmed through article but I was under impression this is a safety test

              See if your reflexes and medical side of things are fine

              So yet again, I don't see why this would affect tickets

              But whatever I don't care
