Mayweather wants Ramsay to cook him dinner in exchange for ring-side seats at Pacquiao bout

Unbeaten US boxing champion Floyd Mayweather wants British chef Gordon Ramsay to cook him a lavish dinner in return for ring-side seats for the boxer's much-anticipated clash with Filipino boxer and politician Manny Pacquiao.

Tickets for the 'superfight' between Mayweather and Pacquiao are selling for up to 5,00,000 dollars-a-piece in America.

Mayweather revealed that he is hoping to strike a deal with Ramsay in the run-up to the May 2 clash, which has already been dubbed as the 'Fight of the Century' by promoters, the Daily Star reported.

'Kitchen Nightmares' star Ramsay is a big hit in Las Vegas where the fight is being held and Mayweather claimed that his 'boy Gordon' is a big boxing fan, adding that if the chef wants ringside tickets for the biggest fight in history, then he's got it.

Mayweather claimed that he can sort that out for Ramsay, adding that it is not a problem. He insisted that if Ramsay wants ringside tickets, then Ramsay has ringside tickets.

The boxer said that all he wants in return, after he wins the fight, is to go a little way down the strip to Ramsay's grill at Caesar's Palace and have the best chef in the world cook him up chicken wings, a burger and cheesecake.

And, Mayweather made it clear that he wanted the chef to do the cooking, saying that he doesn't mean one of his employees, he wants the best chef in the world cooking his post-fight dinner, adding that that's not much to ask for ringside tickets.

Ramsay runs a string of restaurants in Sin City including a steak house, a grill and a burger joint.

Highest-paid athlete on the planet Mayweather, who is undefeated after becoming a five-division world champion, also said that he hopes to open his own restaurant and wants Ramsay on board, insisting that if he opens a restaurant he wants it to be the best and to have that he has got to have the best chef.

Mayweather also said that he is going to be speaking with Ramsay about becoming his business partner and them opening a restaurant, insisting that it would make sense for both of them.
