So continues our marathon coverage of one of the biggest fights of 2013, Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez on Showtime pay-per-view on Sept. 14. Previously: the meaning of Mayweather-Alvarez. Next: the undercard and the rest of the week’s schedule, previewed.

Once every eleventy billion years, distant planets align in a manner that allows the existence of a rumble — a smash up noteworthy enough to summon multiple superheroes together, fighting as one, creating a veritable wall of greatness. That’s not happening here.
If you’re unaware that Floyd Mayweather and Saul “Canelo” Alvarez are fighting this coming weekend, there are truly only three options when it comes to how that could possibly be: you’re legitimately in a coma, you live in a very remote part of the country (like Hoboken, N.J.), or you’re a communist. This week on Queensberry Rules Radio, James Foley of Bad Left Hook and TQBR’s Patrick Connor attempt to reach the other parts of society in previewing #TheOne. Joining these loveseat leviathans this week are TQBR fraternity president Tim Starks, Bad Left Hook’s Scott Christ, and The Cruelest Sport‘s Jimmy Tobin.
The current pause is to allow you to pick up the pieces of your mind that were just blown out of your skull by that revelation. Then remember that we’ll also be getting to Danny Garcia vs. Lucas Matthysse. Rest up.
