Floyd Mayweather Jr and Shane Mosley both made the weight for Saturday night's eagerly-awaited showdown in Las Vegas. The pair will lock horns in the biggest fight of 2010 so far, as 'Money' Mayweather bids to extend his unbeaten professional record to 41 straight wins. Mayweather weighed in at 146lbs at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Friday, a pound under the welterweight limit. Mosley weighed right on the 147lb limit, with both fighters looking in prime condition. 'Sugar' Shane could present Mayweather Jr with the biggest test of his career so far, but is coming off a 16-month lay-off at the age of 38. He hasn't fought since demolishing Antonio Margarito in January 2009. Mayweather Jr meanwhile returned from a brief retirement to comfortably outpoint Juan Manuel Marquez at the same venue last September.
