Mayweather - Marquez Rescheduled and Bernard Hopkins Next Opponent

The Floyd Mayweather versus Juan Manuel Marquez fight has been rescheduled to September 19th. That is very close to Mexican Independence Day (Sept. 16th) so should ensure a bigger draw in case the original date wasn't pulling in the numbers the Mayweather camp wanted to see. With Manny Pacquiao about so sign a deal to fight Miguel Cotto in November we are not going to see Mayweather - Pacquiao until next year.

In other news, Bernard Hopkins is close to finalizing a deal with Tomasz Adamek for a fight between them in January of next year. If Bernard can pull out that victory in his mid-40s the legend of Bernard Hopkins will certainly grow stronger.
