Floyd Mayweather announced last week that he’d fight Marcos Maidana for the second time on September 13th but today he released the official poster via his twitter.
There were rumors that Mayweather Promotions applied for a license in New York and not Las Vegas, so the fight would occur in MSG or the Barclays but this poster puts those rumblings to a rest.
The MGM Grand and their signature lion is front and center on the poster and Floyd continues to fight in his most familiar venue.
Heres’ the original tweet from Floyd that made fans jump through hoops to see the poster:
Floyd then made the larger announcement a few minutes later on the same twitter page :
