12 rounds of very little rock 'em and a tiny bit of sock 'em boxing at the MGM Grand last Saturday. Mayweather was rarely troubled by Pac-Man, torn rotator cuff or not, and was a unanimous winner on points.

And, as Barry Norman was once accused of quipping, why not? In a world of Burger King kings, Hublot shout-outs and mobile phone selfies on ring-walks, why not sell a bag of air captured in the arena on fight night? That is exactly what one St Louis, Missouri punter is doing on eBay. They have packaged a healthy looking bag of air, which they list as 'used', from the arena. Air bag The latest bid is $1.04 but a war could erupt at any moment. If you fancy a bid - be warned, there are shipping costs - click your finger right... here. Hat-tip: Sports Illustrated
