2. Shock the World

Conversely, should Mayweather somehow lose this bout, it would truly be a moment that shocks the boxing world. Although we are the first to admit that a Mayweather defeat is highly unlikely, don’t dismiss the notion. In the 60’s a braggadocios young man named Cassius Clay did just that in knocking out the heavily favored Sonny Liston. The 90’s saw Buster Douglas take apart another heavily favored shoe-in named Mike Tyson. This is boxing and anything can happen with just one punch. Wouldn’t it be even more fun to see it unfold as it happens?
