Unless you've been living under a rock, you are probably aware that Floyd Mayweather will be fighting Manny Pacquiao this Saturday in Las Vegas. The excitement in the air is palpable as the unbeaten 38 year old American Mayweather gets training like Rocky to take on The Filipino Slugger, in a bout expected to be the richest in history - tickets are on sale for as much as $351,000 (£230,000).
Unfortunately ESPN SportsNation host Michelle Beadle hasn't prepared for this epic slice of boxing action, so co-hosts Max and Marcellus have to get her ready for the fight in the only way they know how... old school Punch-Out!! style.
The video is a real hoot, so we just had to share it with you. As always, let us know your thoughts with a comment below.

I know nothing about whatever fight is coming up, nor who these people are.
But the fact that this was on television is amazing, not to mention the .gif joke cracked me up.
@Amiibo Yep, exactly that
PacMan ftw!
I heard about it from somebody. (Then switched off).
The phrases on the cut screen are funny. Well done ESPN.
Ah Pacquiao vs Mayweather... Never in the history of boxing has there ever been a more hyped up fight that could stand in the same league as The Thrilla' in Manila.
I'm surprised ESPN did this! It's really well made! But I guess I have been living under a rock since I don't know what this upcoming fight is...😗
I really need to start watching Sportsnation again.
Also, watch Highly Questionable
I'm sorry, but... what?! O_o
@Amiibo
It's the Batman v Superman of boxing.
Of course Batman always wins.
ESPN makes a perhaps surprising number of Nintendo jokes. See my avatar, for instance.
As another example, one time when NBA superstar James Harden had a great game, ESPN ran the headline "Harden Was Super Effective."
amusing. I'm rooting for Manny.
Awesome video, Beadle is the best.
"Unless you've been living under a rock, you are probably aware that Floyd Mayweather will be fighting Manny Pacquiao this Saturday in Las Vegas"
So I've apparently been living under a rock then. I've not seen anything about this, nor do I know who either of these muscleheads are. Maybe it's due to the fact I don't watch cable TV?
@Dr_Corndog I loved when they actually showed Super Mario 3D World during the CFP when Mariota was on the field.
Damn! Look at all the rock people.
Runs and hides back under his rock he has been indeterminately living under.
Who???
Not Bad
I love that before the Don Flamenco fight, it said "I'll dance so sweet on your mom" that's hilarious.
