AMERICA’S LINE
LAS VEGAS — Money just keeps making money. Apparently, Mayweather was turned down when he wanted to make a $400,000 wager on the under proposition in the fight, which was 91/2 rounds. But when he was talking on ESPN after the fight, Money said that he gave a friend the $400 LARGE to make the wager, but they ONLY let him bet $87,000. What a shame, because it was a WINNER! The fight ended in the 10th round at 1 minute, 5 seconds. That’s an UNDER, and MO’ money for MONEY Mayweather! Of course, an athlete AND a promoter betting on himself, opens a WHOLE other can of worms.… Speaking of money, Conor McGregor took a bunch of shots to the head, and we took one to the bank account. Dropped $145 for the week, and the grind continues. BOXING REPORT:
