Breaking Boxing News: Money Talks – Floyd Mayweather, JR. Stalls Jail Time

Justice of the Peace Melissa Saragosa has given Floyd Mayweather until June 1 to serve his jail sentence, thus allowing Floyd to fight on May 5 as scheduled against an opponent to be named. A last minute appeal by Mayweather’s legal team convinced the Las Vegas judge to allow Floyd to fulfill “prior commitments and contracts.”

As far as Floyd’s opponent, Golden Boy has floated the name of WBC super welterweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez. Another possibility may be former IBF featherweight/super featherweight champion Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero, who has been campaigning long and hard for a shot at Mayweather.
