Tonight is set to be a huge night for boxing and UFC fans. Not only do we have the UFC 103 event taking place, which is headlined by a fight between Rich Franklin and Vitor Belfort, but boxing fans also have Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s comeback fight tonight.
Floyd Mayweather Jr. returns to the ring tonight, for the hugely anticipated fight against Juan Manuel Marquez. And the reason it’s on the same night as the UFC 103 event, is because it got delayed by two months due to an injury suffered by Mayweather.
According to reports from usatoday.com, UFC president Dana White said that having the UFC 103 event on the same night as boxing isn’t a good thing. Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer feels confident, that the Mayweather-Marquez fight will out-sell UFC 103.
