Poll added, I'd really like to know how people feel about this one.
For me this is 10 times worse than the Berto fight, Berto would likely do an absolute number on someone like Conor McGregor and If this fight happens Conor McGregor will very likely get KOed by Floyd who has had a long lay off, not KOed anyone in many years and is now in his 40's as well?
It's a clown show, If you supported a boycott against Berto Vs. Floyd you should hold this one to a higher disdain.
If yes, explain why.
you homos say you wont pay for it, i bet you will walk your ass to a buffalo wild wings or freeload off your friend to watch it.
I wouldn't knock people for actually watching it. People in general enjoy a good circus show from time to time. But in the sense of dishing out $80-100 to watch it? If a bar is showing it and aren't charging at the door, f*ck it. That's what most do anyway for any other PPV.
I'll buy it, because why wouldn't I? It will be an event that will transcend the sport of boxing or MMA, it's a water cooler moment in pop culture. And for $60? It costs more than $60 for me and my fiance to go get dinner and see a movie - so why not order it, order a couple of pizzas, buy some beer, invite some of my friends over, and have a good time watching it for the sake of watching it.
As a boxing fan, I have no interest in it, but I watch award shows where I hardly recognize half the movies or artists nominated. I watch Super Bowl between teams I couldn't care less about. Why would I take some moral high ground stand for a one sided boxing fight - plus the undercard might be genuinely enjoyable. So again, I ask, why not?
In this era of HD streaming boxes, buying ANY PPV in general is

But the casuals would eat it up (who buy most of the PPVs) and the Sports bars would be all over it. I'd watch it just for the f*ckery but Floyd ain't getting any of money.
more blame on Floyd than conor.
I mean who would turn down a fight with Floyd even if you know you have zero chance?
I agree. but if I was a MMA fan, I'd be very pissed off at Connor too, he's the sport's biggest star and the face of UFC and yet he's selling himself like a cheap hooker for this freak show
Forget pay for it, who would be stupid enough to watch?
Mayweather, the perennial PPV disappointment versus a guy who can't box. Do people realise how ****ing hideous and awkward it's going to look when Conor is trying to throw punches?
Biggest freakshow of all time between two Las Vegas clowns.
The only upside of it will be seeing the MMA fans getting duped by Mayweather like boxing fans have for years.
Stupid to watch it yeah, stupid to pay for it nah.
I like someones else idea of going to place that will show it make night of it but difficult to do that in UK not many places will stay open to 5am.
So a stream it would be for me.
I wont pay a penny for this circus act
Shame on both Floyd and Connor. trying to rip off the fans in what they know will be a mismatch of the highest order
****'s gonna be worse than Garcia-Salka
I hate to say this but it really might. These dudes I saw at the park were so hyped about them fighting rolltide.
I think the fight will sell but not may/pac numbers
If it does, then that's crazy
It's a complete and utter mismatch. But, you've got me messed up if you think I'm going to miss this circus.
None of us need to miss it I just think streaming is the answer to this PPV If it gets made.

12 dumbfucks so far. :fingersx:
It's a freak show but to be honest I'll buy it.
And so will millions.
Biggest star in UFC vs biggest star in Boxing.
Two massive PPV sellers.
Two brash, Vilian esque characters.
It's money. I get why they're pursuing it.
This is the type of event that can capture the imagination of the public it has all the back end front end story and they the 2 biggest names in combat sport, that means mega numbers.
I believe the guys in here just dont realise the business this thing can do.
I guess I didn't either.Connor is on leave and Floyd is retired yet this is the fight most people are talking about.
Took my son to the park yesterday to shoot hoop. 3 guys, roughly 25-35 had just finished playing. Not only were they talking about this fight they were talking about a rematch.
Seems like the dumbest thing to me but to some casuals this is a big deal.
I don't get it.
