Floyd Mayweather spent the hours before arguably the biggest fight of his career hanging out with Justin Bieber, according to HollywoodLife.com
After walking to the ring with Lil Wayne for his last fight against Victor Ortiz, boxing's pound-for-pound king will be accompanied by Bieber when he faces upstart Canelo Alvarez at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Saturday night's junior middleweight unification title bout in Las Vegas., the website reported.
Less than 24 hours before the fight, Bieber also took to Twitter to post black-and-white pics of himself and the champ under the heading: "Go to Showtime.net to get the fight and support @FloydMayweather. I'll be there too."
The unlikely alliance between "Money" and the "Biebs" seems to have withstood the test of time. When Mayweather faced Miguel Cotto in May of last year, Bieber was in the house that night too. According to HollywoodLife, he walked the champ to the ring that night and after he prevailed later tweeted:"Hard Work & Dedication . Congrats champ . Glad i could be a part of it."
Mayweather, 44-0 enters his bout against Alvarez as an overwhelming favorite to retain his title and further solidify his legacy. At Badlefthook.com, he is listed with a 71 percent chance of remaining undefeated. At Beetus.com, he's listed at -280, meaning a better would need to wager to $280 just to net a $100 profit.
