Mayweather and Maidana to contest for Vibranium title

The May 3rd contest between Floyd Mayweather Jr and Marcos Maidana has been given the ultimate upgrade by the collective sanctioning bodies as the pair will now contest the brand new ‘Vibranium’ title.

Vibranium is the rarest metal known to man, having been first deposited on Earth by a meteorite approximately 10,000 years ago in what is now the small African country of Wakanda. The ultra-resilient alloy changes hands for as much as $250,000 per gram and can only be purchased by agreement with the ruling Wakandan tribe, the Vibuntu.

Reports claim that securing enough Vibranium to fashion the belt’s middle was made even more difficult after a leaked document containing Mayweather’s purse demands for the contest, which include a Vibranium plated Bugatti, forced prices to an all-time high.

A delegation from each of the major sanctioning bodies had to travel to Wakanda to provide personal assurances to Vibuntun elders that American judge CJ Ross would never again be put in the position of having to score a professional boxing contest.

I nearly bit....And then I remembered the date!

Worst April Fool ever?

yep.....

Only real fighters like GGG should fight for Vibranium belts..

Good article...Mate..

Ahh you could have at least played along, spoil sports.   

That went way too far. A stupid platinum title would have been believable.

It might have worked with just the title but the full comic book back story was over selling it a bit.

I thought Vibranium was a vibrator made out of titanium

GGG is so tough the belts fight for HIM.

You thought this was bad Haz, Matchroom sent a press release saying they were allowing fighters to tag in another fighter who was at ringside at this weekends Prizefighter.

Strongy should post all his articles today.

Mayweather should have a strap made of Bellendium

I'd actually watch that.

GGG invented the giraffe when he uppercutted a horse.

That's the greatest fighter of our generation, Dave..

Wash your mouth out..

May not be in the Top 7 like Jack Johnson..

But he's still great.

No doubt...but he's still a bell.

Carl Froch may be the best fighter we've had from these shores for a while (debatable) but he's still a bit of a bell. Granted there's a possibility that Froch may recover and return to normal whereas I believe Floyd's case is terminal

Unlike your fave...Haye!!

GGG once bowled a perfect game with a marble.

It's all good natured fun..

I read this, and I thought to myself... Vibranium... where have I heard of it before? Then I figured it out

When Captain America throws his mighty shield
All those who chose to oppose his shield must yield ..

Sh!ttest Marvel character and movie(s) by a long shot.....

watched the second Captain America on Sunday - pretty poor, but still better than anything not called Batman DC has released

Liked old Cap when he had Bucky helping him..

Prefer Tony Stark though..

Tony Stark makes you feel
He's a cool exec with a heart of steel

Please, Mayweather makes David Haye look like David Price when it comes to arrogant bellends

Yeh, Ironman is definitely my favourite of the Marvel/Avengers lot.

Though Batman still trumps it.

More of a Thor fan, although Iron Man has better films...
