Mayweather "gives" Sept. date to Canelo

A mile? What is that in PPV numbers? A million, two million? Who cares if it sells a billion? After the fight boxing writers would still be talking more about Canelo/GGG outcome than the Floyd/Conor exhibition. In one fight, we have two MWs fighting for legacy, in the other we have two morons fighting for a paycheck and a farce of a 50th win. On that note, why would I want your account anyway? It's full of crappy, biased, uninformed posts.

Whether you like the fight or not, it's still going to outsell the canelo goloofkin fight. Not to mention that Floyd's going to make over 100 million, is already a 5 division champ, p4p#1 for however many years, already beat Canelo with ease, is an atg... he can take an easy 50th fight because he's smarter than stoooopid ass Loeffler, gaylovekin and Sanchez who sat and waited for daddy canelo to make the fight because gaylovekin was to puzzy to ever move up.

I already called it a circus show...i don't care about the fight either anus...im telling you that it's going to outsell anything gaylovekin does by a friggen mile. A mile?

I couldn't care less how much Floyd/Conor sells. It's a garbage fight and that's really the point I'm trying to drive across, and here's a news flash--not you or any other Floyd fan gets a dollar of that PPV money from Floyd, so why do you care so much about how well it sells or how much Floyd earns? Are you on his Christmas card list?

It shouldn't make a difference to floyd-connor, they can fight any date and still sell good, they are targeting different audiences for that fight...

What is a circus fight between non Mexicans got to do with a Mexican holiday? Why not St Patrick's day or MLK's day? I don't get it.

I told you all here, once Jr. gave up those dates last year they were Canelo's for the next decade. I still don't think the Mayweather/Conner fight actually happens but if it does there is no reason why it has to happen on a Mexican holiday.

Gee, thanks, Floyd! What a pal! :fing02:

Wanna bet accounts that Floyd McGregor outsells canelo goloofkin? I couldn't care less how much Floyd/Conor sells.

You know I'm right, that's why you took the time to quote me. Floyd doesn't want a "real" fight stealing any of his glory, and he knows that Mexican fans will be buying Canelo's fight, not his. His fight with Berto demonstrated how his own fans weren't willing to purchase any more mismatches and boring fights. He couldn't even sell out the MGM grand, and many fans walked out halfway into the fight. Floyd is an attention-wh@re, and he doesn't want to share the spot light with Canelo/GGG. After the fight all the talk will be about Canelo/GGG, not Floyd/Conor, which will be a silly mismatch and a laughing stock once it is over.

There's no way a fight with triple d1ck can do more sales than a fight with the biggest stars in 2 combat sports. Even if it is a circus show. If you really think this, there's something wrong with you. You know I'm right, that's why you took the time to quote me.

I think itd be safe to say, May vs Mac sells a minimum of 500k more than Canelo vs GGG. I could also sell 1-2mil more by NOT fighting on the same date as Canelo/GGG. Would have been a stupid move by Floyd and Showtime.

That's because Canelo wasn't moving off that date and Floyd didn't want to risk embarrassment if Canelo/GGG (a real fight) sells as good or better than the garbage fight he's signing on for with Mr. Lucky Charms. His ego couldn't handle it. There's no way a fight with triple d1ck can do more sales than a fight with the biggest stars in 2 combat sports. Even if it is a circus show.

Even if Mayweahter-Connor can sell more them going on the same date is clearly something that hurts both sides. It is over something stupid that doesn't really matter much anyway. They needed to move a bit faster if they wanted that date. If they must mess with GBP go the first week of September. Going first screws them pretty badly and there is still plenty of time to promote the fight with all the talk that has already occurred. Still a pointless thing to do though as there is no harm that comes from and October or November date and they don't need to mess with anyone.

Apart from the trash talking,May-Mac holds no interest with me.I can't fathom why anyone would PAY to watch the fight.Didn't yous learn from the last washout with Mayweather?

He's not giving anything that's spin for Canelo is refusing to move his date and he has no choice but to move his fight. I said this the other day and I'll keep repeating it going head to head HURTS Floyd/McGregor numbers more then the other way around. Almost nobody who is going to buy Canelo/GGG is going to pick Floyd/McGregor over it. Floyd/McGregor also costs more money because of the high guarantee amounts they NEED to sell more PPVs to break even. Canelo/GGG can go head to head and still do around 1m PPV buys which is enough to make money. Head to head Floyd circus fight ends up in the red. This is about Floyd's ego he doesn't need the date anyway he's fighting a UFC fighter and they stage PPVs any month of the year. It makes no business decision when even Dana White already admitted they have to move the date. Forcing the issue for this date is like cutting off your nose to spite your face and all the investors would never let Floyd go ahead with it because they would lose money.

Not worth it...

Lol @ giving Canelo the date! It's Mexican Independence Day Floyd, not Irish Independence day. You can't get right off the Mexicans this holiday buddy! Canelo's getting paid on this one now that they know he can do over 1 mill buys. Nobody with sense would buy Floyd-McGregor over Canelo-GGG and at least somebody at Showtime has the common sense to know that. Bahahahaha!!!!!!

Smart move, almost no boxing fan would forego Canelo-GGG. Floyd is trying to save face by "giving" Canelo the date but he knows deep down it's a business move not to compete. If it was another fight like Mayweather-Pacquiao II, or Mayweather-Thurman, that would've been an issue. But for Mayweather-McGregor then Mayweather would've been crazy to do that. First of all it hurts Canelo-GGG, and secondly it hurts Mayweather-McGregor. Being in completely separate months will be better for both.

Mayweather should stage this fight 4th of July weekend & block the Pac fight...that doesn't even make sense you idiot.

lol gayweather jr is delusional enough to believe that. if he was as big a shot caller as he claims he would take "his" date back from ginger and ggg. he's not though
