    Cristiano Ronaldo scored five goals as Real Madrid thrashed Granada 9-1 on Sunday afternoon

  While they've never fought and only recently met in person. Mayweather and Pacquiao have long been considered the two best fighters in the world. The two have had on-again, off-again negotiations since 2009, but until recently, the two sides have finally come to an agreement. Because of all the near misses, Mayweather's undefeated record, and Pacquiao's fall and return to consistency, the hype for the fight is at an all-time high. Mayweather VS. Pacquiao has far surpassed a boxing event or even a traditional world championship fight as it pertains to pop culture notoriety. This bout will eliminate the biggest "what if" question in the sport. Most sports never get to see such a thing happen. COST IMPLICATIONS FOR STAKE HOLDERS : Mayweather himself could earn up to $180 million while Pacquiao may also wind up in the nine-figure range. Under terms of their agreement, Mayweather earns 60 percent of the purse, versus 40 percent for Pacquiao.
