The world hasn’t been this excited about a sporting event in a very long time. With the rise of fighting like MMA, boxing has taken a backseat. But boxing is making a dramatic comeback with tonight’s much anticipated Mayweather-Pacquiao fight. With remaining floor seats selling for over $300,000, reports have come in that the fight will bring in over $400,000,000. And that doesn’t even include the money circulating from gambling. Mark Wahlberg is joining in on the excitement about tonight’s fight with a quarter million dollar bet . His $250,000 bet with P. Diddy is for a good cause. Mark put his bets on Pacquiao. If he wins, he is donating the money to charity. The list of celebs joining Wahlberg at the fight is both selective and impressive with stars such as Robert De Niro, Clint Eastwood, Matt Damon, Michael J. Fox, Justin Bieber, 50 Cent, Leonardo DiCaprio, Will Smith, Sylvester Stallone, and Jamie Foxx. Of course, this couldn’t come without a little drama. Justin Bieber, who is attending the fight has a strange friendship with Floyd Mayweather . And although he will be cheering on his friend from outside the ring, he started his own fight when Bieber told Selena Gomez to stay away from the boxing match . He should take a lesson from Mark Wahlberg and P. Diddy. Just watch the fight and make freaking charity bets. I don’t have a $250,000 bet. But I’ll join Mark and put my pocket change on Pacquiao too.

Suge Knight’s Lawyer Says Floyd Mayweather May Post His Bail Suge Knight has been suffering a number of emergencies and medical issues since he entered jail after killing a man with his truck earlier this year. His sky-high bail amount caused him to actually pass out , since there is no way he’d ever be able pay on the sky high amount. Rumor has it that Floyd Mayweather may step in and save Suge from cooling his heels in the clink while he awaits trial. Via E! News : Suge Knight may be out of jail as early as this weekend if Floyd Mayweather Jr. wins his anticipated boxing match against Manny Pacquiao, his lawyer says. The 50-year-old Death Row Records co-founder has remained behind bars since he was arrested on Jan. 30 on suspicion of running over two men with his pickup truck. He re-entered a plea of not guilty on Thursday to charges of murder, attempted murder and hit and run over the incident, in which one man was killed and the second was injured. His bail was set at $10 million, reduced from $25 million, and his trial is set to begin in July. Matthew Fletcher, Knight’s attorney, said if Mayweather wins Saturday’s boxing match, he could cover his client’s bail, The Los Angeles Times and NBC Los Angeles reported on April 30. The boxing champion has not commented. Fletcher told the outlets he talked to Mayweather about the issue on Wednesday. “They’re good friends,” Fletcher was quoted as saying. “Suge said, ‘Man, I was really going to pull for him to win, but now I’m going to have to pray for him to win.’” This one sounds a bit off…he is “Money” Mayweather after all. We wouldn’t think he’d need to hinge his ability to bail his good friend out of jail on Saturday’s fight. Doesn’t he carry about half that amount in cash in his backpack at all times anyway?? Well as it turns out, the miracle bail was a bunch of wishful thinking. As TMZ reports: TMZ Sports just got off the phone with one of Floyd’s most trusted members of his TMT crew — who tells us Suge’s lawyer was just plain wrong when he told media outlets there was a plan in place for Floyd to fork over the money. We’re told Floyd and Suge were close in the past — but they haven’t been in contact in several years. Well…maybe Suge can hope Floyd has a change of heart?
