.@FloydMayweather has promised a big announcement during tonight's #SB49 ! Tune in at 10pm on Sky Sports 1 & 3.




guess he's fighting Khan?

I'm not sure why he would announce the Pac fight today since he just said a day or so again, the fight hasn't been made yet. But maybe that was just a smokescreen. Or he could announce he's fighting Khan. Stranger things have happened.

I'm just waiting for Floyd to troll everyone, "You know...like I said before...I want to give the fans exciting fights. On May 2 I'll be fighting...Paul Spadafora at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. It's gonna be a heck of a fight. He's a tough competitor. I take my hat off to him. It's the fight fans want to see."

The forum would implode with rage.

my prediction:

"We tried to make the fight with Manny but at the end of the day the money didnt add up. Bob Arum and HBO made it too difficult to come to terms. We still lookin to fight the best and give the fans what they want, and thats going to be Miguel Cotto on May 2nd. "

Exactly what's going to happen

Talk about becoming the biggest heel ever if he throws a swerve and fights khan....I don't think he can be hated any more so but if Floyd pulls this stunt, it could happen...I think he might even lose some *****s at this point....

I just want it to hit 10pm UK time already. I'm nervous that it's something to do with the fight i.e made or not made. Some part of me thinks it might be just for another UK tour.

I thought Floyd was scared of Khan and Manny?

Hmmm. I never said that but I do believe he's scared of losing

well the mods just deleted the floyd will anounce thread where people said floyd will make an announcement 6:30pm eastern time.

basically the start of the superbowl.

he needs to do it an hour before the game starts so that he lets social media horde go wild and might even get a mention before the game starts.

if he is really gonna announce today according to that unfairly deleted thread.

6:30pm eastern time? Isn't that during the game? Game starts at 6:00pm eastern time.

Does Sky have their own broadcast team and telecast for the super bowl or are they doing simulcast of NBC?

[Shapopojoe]

I read the tweet and they are saying that Floyd has announcement during the Super Bowl...tune in at 10 is to watch their new report more than likely, not the live announcement.....I think the closer we get to the game, if there is an announcement it will start leaking from more sources...
