5 things you need to know Monday
1. Greek PM to outline new strategy for bailout deal
Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras is meeting with the leaders of six of the seven parties represented in Parliament at the presidential palace Monday. He requested the meeting shortly after the austerity referendum results showed a clear victory for the "no" camp. He said he will share his strategy for negotiations with creditors on a new bailout deal and call for support. Greece's unorthodox Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis resigned Monday, less than 24 hours after helping the "no" vote win the referendum. He said he was resigning because Tsipras believed his departure might help Greece "achieve a deal" with the creditors.
2. Pope Francis to deliver Mass to crowd of a million in Ecuador
Pope Francis will deliver a Mass expected to draw more than 1 million people in the Ecuadorean port of Guayaquil on Monday, as Latin America's first pontiff tours his home continent bringing a message of compassion for the weak and respect for an ailing planet. Francis, who arrived in South America on Sunday, chose to visit Ecuador, Bolivia and Paraguay specifically because they are among the poorest and most marginal nations of a region that claims 40% of the world's Catholics. He's skipping his homeland of Argentina, where he ministered to the poorest slum-dwellers while archbishop, to avoid papal entanglement in this year's presidential election.
3. Floyd Mayweather to be stripped of WBO welterweight title
On Monday morning, Floyd Mayweather is expected to be stripped of his World Boxing Organization welterweight title, and Timothy Bradley, the current WBO interim titlist, will be elevated to full beltholder. Mayweather, who won the title when he defeated Manny Pacquiao on May 2 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas in the so-called "Fight of the Century," was required to pay a $200,000 sanctioning fee by a July 3rd deadline in order to keep the belt, which he failed to do.
