FanDuel Gets Naming Rights on Floyd Mayweather Trunks

The world leader in daily fantasy sports, FanDuel.com, announced this week it has purchased the naming rights to none other than Floyd Mayweather’s trunks.  He will have them on full display during his highly anticipated May 2 bout with Manny Pacquiao.

As part of the deal FanDuel will award six tickets to the welterweight fight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

The fight is expected to shatter previous boxing revenue, producing at least $300 million.  It is also likely to be among the most wagered on single day events of the year.

Mayweather Jr. comes into this fight as a -130 favorite to win by decision

FanDuel this week also announced it had entered into sponsorship deals with 15 NFL teams.
