Default 5'8" Floyd Mayweather breaks 7'2" wrestlers nose

I know wrestling is a fake sport, but this video clip had me in stitches when I watched it last night. Supposedly The Big Show, all 28st of him, is p!$$ed at the masked guy and Mayweather gets upset at the way he treats his friend, squaring up to the goliath. The big guy laughs it off and kneels down to give the tiny boxer a fair shot. BIG MISTAKE !

ENJOY

I know it's probably all staged, and that it's more than likely leading up to some big money promo bout like Balboa vs Hogan in Rocky III, but it is still funny Especially when the little guy legs it

I think it was, but maybe shouldn't have gone that far. I think FM was supposed to slap him a bit, but when he caught him with a couple of beauties, realised what he'd done and was wise to leg it

It was staged, but... I don't think he was supposed to land 3 quality blows on him.

Apparently there will be an anouncement soon about a match between Mayweather and the Big Show. So, all of this builds up the storyline nicely

So I'm told

Ha, I watched this yesterday morning before it was posted, coincedence

I'm still sort of a fan of wrestling, have been for years, I know its fake an all but I find it vaguely entertaining in the same way that women find coronation street entertaining, though I don't HAVE to watch every episode

It will have probably been all staged, right down to the blood. They often use blood pellets and before that the ref used have a razor blade so they could make a small cut in the hair line to make a fight appear more dramatic.

A similar thing happened about 10 years ago when Mike Tyson had a brief part in the WWE as well, though not with Big Show.

His nose was definitely made wonky... so I think the shots were real, but how staged it was who knows.

I still watch it every now and then. Even been to a couple of live events in my time. I'll always be a big kid

After watching the replays of it you could tell it was real blood which I think they might of wanted. He shouldn't have had his nose broken, though.

Big Show vs Mayweather is being announced tomorrow. They initially wanted De La Hoya as well but he said no.

Honest, I don't watch it that much

Mayweather is supposedly getting $20 million to be involved in Wrestlemania.

He is scheduled to fight Paul "Big Show" Wight one on one, but i doubt they are stupid enough for this to be a shoot fight, especially with Mayweather fighting De La Hoya in September.

I can imagine a few of the wrestlers being well p*ssed off if he is in fact getting a cool $20 mill!
