A thousand dollars and you’re not even guaranteed to be not have a seat somewhere where you’ll need an oxygen tank to breathe and a sherpa to guide you back. Mayweather might just dash the hopes of fans everywhere though along with a certain writer for TMZ with this post he made on his Shots account:
You’re breaking my heart, Mayweather. Regardless, it’s clear that if negotiations don’t come to an agreement quickly, the fight might just be a loss for everyone yet.
