This is what you call a fight :
Floyd Mayweather will fight Oscar de la Hoya in Las Vegas on May 5, it has been confirmed.
The superfight - for the WBC light-middleweight title - will take place at the MGM Grand hotel and the 16,800 attendance is being tipped to break box-office records.
With tickets priced from US$350 to US$2,000, the receipts could top the US$16.8 million generated for the Lennox Lewis v Evander Holyfield rematch in 1999.
De la Hoya, a world champion at six different weights in his career, said: "This is what boxing is all about and fighting Floyd Mayweather is the type of fight that truly gets me motivated to go through a hard training camp and make the sacrifices I have to make to be the best.
"We've talked about it, the press and the fans have asked for it, and now we're going to put it all on the line and fight. I can't wait for May 5."
The unbeaten Mayweather added: "I'm excited to get this opportunity to once again show why I'm pound-for-pound the best in the world and to add another title to my collection.
"I respect everything Oscar has accomplished in this sport, but this time he's in over his head."
The Nevada city saw off a bid from Los Angeles to stage the bout.
