25 seconds into the clip..

It's as real as it gets....
Some nice shots landed....

He legitimately broke the Big Show's nose

"The Big Show returns and confronts Floyd Mayweather
This segment was pure gold. Big Show makes his return and the fans were definitely happy to see him. He started off nice enough, but soon the mean side of Show took over as he felt that Rey being attended to at ringside was taking away from his glorious return. So he goozled Rey and began taunting Rey's friend, Mayweather, to come help him. Mayweather was held out by his entourage, but when Show went to chokeslam Rey, Mayweather had seen enough and rushed the ring to confront Show. You could tell by the fans reaction that this was a huge deal and could definitely contribute to ‘Mania's buyrate. Big Show taunted the much smaller Mayweather and gave Mayweather a free shot and Floyd proceeded to bust Show wide THE **** open! He legitimately broke Show's nose and whether it was intentional or not, it added greatly to the segment as the image of a pissed off Show spitting out blood is an awesome one to be used in future video packages. This was good **** here people and hopefully they can follow it up with a compelling feud that can garner them some mainstream attention.
Segment Rating: *****"

De La Hoya, who is a big wrestling fan, turned down the opportunity to be involved in this angle at Wrestlemania. I wonder why.

I think Mayweather by late stoppage.
Big Show is past his prime , and i doubt his conditioning.
We havent seen the big Show go the distance yet.

No, seriously though , i'd like to see that big bloke that's in Mayweather's entourage ,...you know him ?
yeah , like to see him up against the Big |Show.

Seen this on skysports news, what on earth is floyd at, boxers / celebraties have done this in the past when their career is flagging but Floyd clearly has only done it for the craic.

The fat bald guy is the Big Show and he's APPROX 7 feet 2 inches tall and weighs around 400lbs. He's a very famous wrestler from the WWF/WWE....

I dont see how they can make a fight between mayweather and big show benefit them! mayweather would not accept been beaten on the show and if he wins then it makes big show look bad!

The 1st thing i thought was that the big bouncer dude will end up having a mill with big show and/or they all jump on him and bash him, leaving as villians!

They'll make millions from people buying the PPV, the same way another fight with Mayweather benefits De La Hoya

he's talking about benefiting the wrestler and mayweathers name, mayweather wont allow his name tarnished and the big show could be in the wwe for years so the same applies.

Would Mayweather's name really be tarnished if he lost a fake wrestling match? More than likely he'll win, but the publicity associated with wrestling Mayweather will outweigh the negative effects of losing to "the greatest fighter in the world" for the Big Show

I don't think it can tarnish his name. It's like him losing a pool match or soccer game or whatever else.....His sport is boxing and as long as he keeps winning, that's all that his legacy will be based on....

sports illustrated reckon that mayweather is getting 20million dollars or thereabouts for this.That answers the question why he is doin it
