By winning the welterweight bout, Mayweather cemented his legacy as the best of his generation. (AP)

Weekend's Other Major Sporting Event

No, not the Kentucky Derby (here's Tim Layden on American Pharoah's victory) ... or the NFL Draft (here are our grades for all 32 teams) ... or the NBA Playoffs (here's Ben Golliver on Chris Paul's finest moment) ... or the NHL Playoffs (here's Brian Hamilton on the Blackhawks star players). The other major sporting event of the weekend was The Dorset Knob Throwing and Food Festival event in Cattistock, U.K., where participants threw a locally-made biscuit as far as they could. That's not all--the event also included knob putting, knob walking, knob archery and pin the knob on the Cerne Giant.
