best anwser given 10

Answer 1

the fight was fake you could even tell from their facial expression mayweather was trying not to laugh.

Answer 2

The fight was scripted, choreographed, pre-planned, etc.  If you saw the promo ad showing Big Show throwing Floyd out of the ring, look closely:  "Floyd" was a mannequin.  

What's interesting about this "event" is that the wrestling fans hated Floyd, who was supposed to be a hero.  When the promoters couldn't make him popular, they got him to throw money into the crowd.  That enabled the film crew to get a clip of the fans smiling at Floyd and made it look like they were cheering for him.

BTW, Floyd was only paid about $2.5 million (not $20 million) for his performance.  He was not about to risk an injury and jeopardize a much bigger pay check in his rematch with De La Hoya (and he didn't).

Answer 3

Yes it was real

Answer 4

You really think a world class athlete is going to risk his integrity against that monster.  h**l no!!!!  If it was for real Big Show would have kicked his ***.  If you believe in the WWE might as well write a letter to good 'ol Santa!!!!

Answer 5

Floyd looked like a little monkey hanging on that guy's back. It was funny to see this stuff. But they made lots of money with this gig.

no is not real is ENTERTAINMENT

Answer 6

it was scripted but the jumping and falling and getting slammed is real.... i saw mayweather get thrown out of the ring a few days ago by big show... now that is scripted no doubt, but if mayweather lands wrong or gets landed on wrong by a 7 ft 440 pound , you are talking about the end of a career... ask Owen Hart if its real, or Shawn Micheals with a broken neck , or any wrestler who is on a million pain killers if it is fake.... that being said Mayweather is still a pansy but he is a little cooler now lol

Answer 7

YES!!!....i was in like the 13rd or 14th row behind like Tazz and Joey Styles...it was badass!!!...If that wasn't real then i guess Big Show's chin was f***d up before the match.  THAT WAS AN AWESOME MATCH!!

Answer 8

no the fight was not real ..totally staged..very cool though

however obviously mayweather is not a professionally trained wrestler and big show is huge so a few of the punches may have actually been landed..may of..but the actual outcome and the general gist of the fight was staged.

Answer 9

wwe is scripted
