Floyd Mayweather To Fight Larry Merchant In Wendy Deng Octogenarian Smack Down

by | 19th, September 2011

FLOYD Mayweather defeated Victor Ortiz.

Ortiz aimed a headbutt at Mayweather. The pair touched gloves to make up and, as Ortiz looked at the referee, Mayweather smacked him twice in the head. Ortiz went down. Game over.

Larry Merchant, an 80-year-old HBO sports commentator, spoke with Mayweather after the sucker fight. The boxer spouted about a re-match. He ended by telling Merchant he has no respect and is rubbish at his job. Merchant responded by saying that were he only 50 year younger he’d kick Mayweather’s behind.

Mayweather turned and went. At which point, Merchant should have taken a leaf from Mayweather’s book, and smacked him in the back of the head. Then octogenarian champion Wendi Deng would step in and finish him off:
