Celebrating RAW's 25th Anniversary: 25 years with 25 of the most memorable photos

#13 Big Show launches Mayweather

March 10, 2008

I believe I can fly!

Floyd Mayweather is regarded by many as, pound-for-pound, the greatest boxer of all-time. One thing about Floyd is that he is all about the money and he was not about to pass up the opportunity to cash a check from Vince McMahon, even if it involved going head-to-head with the worlds largest athlete, Big Show. Leading up to the payoff at Wrestlemania XXIV, Mayweather had an intense face-off with Big Show during a March 10, 2008, episode of RAW. Unfortunately for Money-Mayweather is that the night ended with him being launched into the second row.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.

Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.

Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.

When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
