Floyd Mayweather Enlists WWE's Triple H To Escort Him To The Ring At Upcoming Bout
Published 09/17/2009 · By Randall Stevens

Floyd MayweatherFloyd "Money" Mayweather always draw attention, whether it be in or out of the ring, or when he does his ring walk.

With his upcoming fight against Juan Manuel Marquez approaching fast, he announced this week that the WWE's Triple H will accompany him to the ring on Saturday (September 19) when he fights at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Mayweather says he couldn't think of anyone better to escort him for his return to the sport.

"Triple H is one of the greatest guys in the world and represents a whole universe of WWE fans that appreciate what he does," the undefeated boxer said. "He and his stature are huge and I can't think of a better person to escort me to the ring for my return to boxing."

"It is an honor to walk the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world back into the ring," said Triple H. "Floyd 'Money' Mayweather has shown WWE tremendous support and it is my pleasure to return the favor this Saturday by standing at his side as he defeats Marquez in what I am sure will be boxing's fight of the year."

Mayweather is known for a long list of creative ring walks including past performances by 50 Cent and his former "Dancing With the Stars" seasonmates Helio Castroneves, Wayne Newton and Mark Cuban. Other memorable walks included being carried to the ring while standing aloft a Roman Emperor's throne and brought to the ring by a six-man drawn chariot.

Always accompanied by music of his own choosing, Mayweather's past selections have used Bruce Springstein's "Born in the U.S.A.," 50 Cent's "Straight to the Bank" and "Whip Your Head Boy," Jay-Z's "What More Can I Say," Queen's "We Will Rock You" and "Another One Bites the Dust," just to name a few. Saturday night's selection is still a mystery though.

Mayweather and Marquez goes down on Saturday at the MGM, but will also air on HBO Pay-Per-View.

Floyd should easily take care of this fool Marquez. The real fight is between the number one fighter on the planet Pacman. I think Pac will give Floyd hell in the ring. 2 of the best in the world!
