Floyd Mayweather Makes Stop in DC

The Washington Redskins aren't the only big named attraction to have a loyal RVA fan base.

If you're a boxing fan, a Floyd Mayweather boxing fan in particular, you'll appreciate reading about yesterday's press conference at DC's historic Lincoln Theatre where Mayweather and his next opponent, Canelo Alverez faced off to promote their September 14th, 12-round fight for Canelo's WBC, WBA and Ring Magazine Super Welterweight World Championship and Mayweather's WBA Super Welterweight Super World Championship at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. 

Here are a few pics on the day, courtesy of our DC connection, DC UrbanSports.
