There is only one boxing match that the world really wants to see: Floyd Mayweather Jr. versus Manny Pacquiao. If the two ever box, it will undoubtedly set the record for pay-per-view purchases and could very well be the most hyped fight in boxing history. Both boxers would make an enormous amount of cash.

What’s the problem.

Apparently, Floyd Mayweather Jr. is scared. What other excuse could there be for him not agreeing to fight Manny Pacquiao this time? Last year, there were understandable differences. This time, the boxing world is just waiting for his okay.

The proposed fight would take place on Nov. 13. The venue will either be in Las Vegas or in Cowboys Stadium. With arguably the two best fighters in the world going head to head, almost every sports fan will be turning in.

We wait for you, Floyd Maywether Jr.

You aren’t scared, are you?


This is what the world of boxing is waiting for, the face off of the two most prominent boxer alive. Are they waiting for the pig's tail to become long?

Boston Shrek and Donkey together again.

The Celtics are about to extend their relationship with Nate Robinson, after all.

The team, according to a league source, just reached agreement with their backup point guard on a two-year deal that will pay him approximately $4 million per season.

Agent Aaron Goodwin, who had told the Herald early in the week that a deal could be reached by the end of the week, turned out to be quite the sage. Agreement came after a brief slowdown in talks on Thursday.

Robinson, according to Goodwin, had made an unspecified concession, and the guard was in the process of waiting for the Celtics to make a concession of their own.

By this morning, both sides were satisfied. The Celtics, with many other needs to fill with minimum contracts, no longer have to list point guard among those needs.


If I may add Mr. Ainge should really add some depth on the bench. Someone who can play along with the Big three and learn from them besides Kendrick and Rajon of course.

Newest Celtic Jermaine O'neal

Boston Free Agency plan was to acquire at least another big man in replacement of their starting center Kendrick Perkins.

The Boston Celtics officially signed Jermaine O'Neal on Wednesday.



"When the opportunity arose for me to join an organization like the Celtics, I could not refuse," said the 6-foot-11, 255-pound center. "I cannot wait to get to Boston and start to practice with the rest of the team in pursuit of a championship."

O'Neal says he's hungry for a ring and knows the Big Three and the remaining core from the 2008 title team are hungry for another, so that's why he chose Boston over other suitors.



"When he comes back, it's his position to have," O'Neal said. "I'm just here to do my job. I'm not trying to step on anybody's feet. I'm not trying to do anything to cause any issues. I'm here to win. That's just really what it boils down to.

"I probably wouldn't have wanted to back up anybody. But this situation is proven, and why come in and try to mess up something that's already proven?"


He, together with Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, were the latest about Celtics free agency bonanza. Seems good enough roster to chase NBA Title, too early I guess.
