Boxing can hardly compete with the whirlwind of activity in other sporting genres at the moment. 

Major league baseball is in full swing, NFL players are reporting to camp, Wimbledon is entering its final rounds of action, the World Cup is dwindling down its final eight, and everybody and their momma is wondering what teams will emerge victorious in the hunt for LeBron James, Dwayne Wade and the rest of the NBA’s best.

But come November 13, all eyes might be focused on the best that boxing has to offer.

On that night, Filipino legend (turned Congressman) Manny Pacquiao could be squaring off against Floyd “Money” Mayweather.  Representatives for both fighters have agreed to the details of a match, although Mayweather himself will still have the final say.

A battle with these two top boxers has been heavily anticipated for some time.  The major issue keeping them out of the ring has been Mayweather’s persistence on Pacquiao agreeing with his terms for drug testing.  Mayweather has championed for a test to be administered closer to the date of the proposed fight than Pacquiao has been comfortable with.  While the details on the testing have not been announced, the fight purse is expected to be close to (if not exactly) a 50-50 split.
