FLOYD "MONEY" MAYWEATHER AND DANNY "SWIFT" GARCIA FEATURED ON GOLDEN BOY CLASSICS FOX DEPORTES BROADCAST ON AUGUST 15

FLOYD MAYWEATHER VS. MIGUEL COTTO
DANNY GARCIA VS. KENDALL HOLT

LOS ANGELES, August 14 - It's a double shot of "Golden Boy Classics" on Thursday, August 15, as the countdown to "THE ONE: MAYWEATHER VS. CANELO" continues on FOX Deportes with two memorable battles from the careers of Floyd "Money" Mayweather and Danny "Swift" Garcia.

In the opener at 9:00 p.m. ET, Garcia proves that he's ready for the best in the business when he takes on former world champion Kendall Holt in a 2011 matchup. Then it's the main event at 10:00 p.m., as two of the best of this era, Floyd Mayweather and Miguel Cotto, square off in a quest for 154-pound supremacy.

Superior against anyone and everyone put in front of him for years, Floyd Mayweather's boxing dominance was internationally recognized. But on May 5, 2012, "Money" gave the fans an even more impressive show as he stood and traded with hard-hitting Puerto Rican icon Miguel Cotto, pounding out a 12 round unanimous decision that proved Mayweather's ability to do it all in the ring once again.

Having won all of his 21 previous fights, Philadelphia's Danny Garcia was one win away from a shot at a world title when he faced former WBO champion Kendall Holt at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles on October 15, 2011. And though Garcia got the win and went on to take a world title in his next fight, he had to go to war with Holt for 12 rounds to do it, earning a hard-fought split decision.
