Floyd Mayweather and Mike Tyson target September for postponed exhibition fight
Summary

CSI Entertainment is planning to hold an exhibition boxing match between Floyd Mayweather and Mike Tyson on September 26 at the American Airlines Center in Dallas. Initially scheduled for May 30, the event was postponed due to an injury to Tyson. A court filing reveals that CSI is seeking an expedited hearing regarding legal disputes with Mayweather, who is accused of not fulfilling contractual obligations. CSI has requested a preliminary injunction to ensure that Mayweather participates in the Tyson fight and not another bout. Judge Vernon S. Broderick has asked both parties to agree on a schedule for discovery as they progress in court proceedings.
