Boxing fans to fill Sask. bars for ‘fight of the century’
It’s being called the boxing fight of the century and the hype surrounding the Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao match in Las Vegas is being felt in Saskatchewan.
“Probably one of the biggest fights in the last 10 years. I think even a lot of people that are not interested in boxing will be tuning into this one,” Nelson Boxing Club owner Michelle Nelson said.
“It’s great for boxing,” she said, adding members and their families will be getting together at the club to watch the fight on several big screens.
The fight will also have bars booming across the province.
