\u201c30 DAYS IN MAY,\u201d a revealing documentary film chronicling the days surrounding Floyd Mayweather\u2019s incarceration in 2012, premieres Wednesday, April 3, at 10 p.m. ET\/PT on SHOWTIME\u00ae. The one-hour film was created exclusively from never-before-seen footage and features the only interviews Mayweather has conducted about this \u201clife-changing experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201c30 DAYS IN MAY\u201d offers an intimate look into the life of the world\u2019s highest-paid athlete as he prepares for one of the most challenging experiences of his life. It provides a look inside his life, from his flamboyant mansion to a surprise birthday party for his daughter, while he prepares for life in a jail cell smaller than his bedroom closet. Ultimately, \u201c30 DAYS IN MAY\u201d reveals a man at peace with his impending incarceration and his evolution as a human being.<\/p>\n

The debut of the documentary kicks off an unprecedented programming lineup in support of the upcoming SHOWTIME PPV\u00ae presentation of \u201cMAY DAY: Mayweather vs. Guerrero,\u201d featuring Mayweather\u2019s first fight back in the ring since his release from jail. The mega-event, headlined by the undefeated Eight-Time and Five Division World Champion Mayweather facing Six-Time and Four-Division World Champion Robert Guerrero, takes place Saturday, May 4 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nev.<\/p>\n

Produced by Jackson Nguyen and Todd Crites of Turn Left Productions, \u201c30 DAYS IN MAY\u201d chronicles the days between Mayweather\u2019s May 5, 2012 victory over Puerto Rican superstar Miguel Cotto and the start of a three-month jail term on June 1, 2012 at the Clark County Detention Center in Las Vegas. The film concludes on Aug. 3, Mayweather\u2019s self-described \u201cbest day of my life,\u201d when he was released after serving two months behind bars.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur goal was not to tell his whole story – his humble upbringing or all of his accomplishments – but rather to document the life of a modern day superstar leading up to his three-month prison term,\u201d said Crites. \u201cWhat we are most proud of with \u201830 DAYS IN MAY\u2019 is that it reveals a side of Floyd Mayweather that few get to witness – a person who is somewhat of a simple man, caring, eloquent, soft-spoken and, at times, reflective of not only himself, but also the world around him.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis film unveils a rarely seen side of a very public figure,\u201d said Stephen Espinoza, Executive Vice President and General Manager, SHOWTIME Sports\u00ae. \u201cThere are poignant moments, refreshing moments and a candid look into how this experience affected Floyd. I can\u2019t think of a better program to begin our unique lineup of content, which will culminate with Mayweather\u2019s return to the ring against Robert Guerrero on May 4.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMAY DAY: Mayweather vs. Guerrero,\u201d a 12-round fight for Mayweather’s WBC Welterweight World Championship, is promoted by Mayweather Promotions and Golden Boy Promotions and sponsored by Corona, O’Reilly Auto Parts, AT&T and Star Trek Into Darkness. The mega-event will take place Saturday, May 4 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and will be produced and distributed live by SHOWTIME PPV\u00ae beginning at 9:00 p.m. ET\/6:00 p.m. PT. Also featured will be Daniel Ponce de Leon vs. Abner Mares, a 12-round fight for Ponce de Leon’s WBC Featherweight World Championship.<\/p>\n
