By Chris Williams: HBO has got to be feeling the pain today at the news that their star, the biggest pay per view star in all of sports Floyd Mayweather Jr., has left them and signed a six-fight, 30 month deal with Showtime/CBS. Dan Rafael of ESPN is right; this has got to be the darkest day for HBO ever.
They lost Manny Pacquiao for one fight, and we saw what happened after that. But to lose an even bigger star in Mayweather, that’s going to be tough on HBO. They don’t have anyone to fill in the void that Mayweather Jr. has left.
Adrien Broner is one of HBO’s darlings right now, but he’s not ready to be promoted to pay-per-view fights, partly because of the poor match-making his promoters at Golden Boy Promotions are doing for him.
By Allan Fox: Unbeaten Floyd Mayweather Jr. has reportedly signed a six-fight deal with Showtime/CBS pay per view deal that could take Mayweather to the end of his career. The deal is for 30 months, so Mayweather is going to have to stay active if he’s going to squeeze in all of those fights.

By Chris Williams: Golden Boy Promotions matchmaker Robert Diaz is reporting that they are on the verge of announcing the May 4th fight card headlined by Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero, and WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez vs. WBA World junior middleweight champion Austin Trout at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.

By Dan Ambrose: The hold-up between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and WBC interim welterweight champion Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero (31-1-1, 18 KO’s) is not money related for their proposed May 4th fight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada, according to Steve Kim. There’s something on Mayweather’s end that he’s not happy with, so he’s holding off on making that fight.
By Chris Williams: Trainer Freddie Roach has his opinions why WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. has decided to go with IBF welterweight champion Devon Alexander instead of Robert Guerrero, the fighter that most boxing fans thought Mayweather was set to fight until recently. 
By Chris Williams: Jeff Mayweather, the uncle of unbeaten Floyd Mayweather Jr, thinks WBC interim welterweight champion Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero (31-1-1, 18 KO’s) will have to changed his fighting strategy completely when and if he gets the May 4th fight with Floyd Jr. because he thinks the aggressiveness that Guerrero showed against Andre Berto recently would get him knocked out quick if he tries that against Floyd Jr.

By Tom Drury: Floyd Mayweather is back in the ring on May 4th, and it’s looking like Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero will be his challenger. Many fans have criticized this choice of opponent for Mayweather (nothing new there). Guerrero will be entering the ring full of confidence coming off the back of two good wins against genuine welterweight fighters Selcuk Aydin, ranked (3) by the WBC and Andre Berto, ranked (12).
