All of you cattle better pay up! That'll be 100 dollars to see a foregone conclusion. Pay up donkeys!
You can be sure of three things:
1. Anyone that pays for this is a gullible fool.
2. If Floyd loses or it looks in any way close then it's a WWE style pantomime to get more money.
3. The gullible fools from point 1 will shell out more to be scammed again if point two takes place.
true, may has earned his spot in the hof. no question about it. may wants to become a billionaire. no hate in that. im just appalled that a fight fan takes this seriously and sell it off as legit. that aspect of it has me ''raging''.
theyre really giving may a pass due to his body of work. but they cant ever criticize another fight. shouldnt matter if the guys dont have a may level resume. not many people will. 3g vs mundine for $100 ? cant say shlt about it and should cough it up.
may vs mr 0-0 makes every other fight worth every penny.
:banana:
A millennial boxing fundamentalist.
Lol. That's why you mad?
Let me school you right quick.
Boxing, like any other entity throughout history, needs to adjust to the current times in order to survive.
And to adjust in this case means to appease the masses.
I understand your raging however your anger towards the match up needs direction.
You feel the match up puts future fights at risk? Be mad a HBO and SHOWTIME. Use your anger and contact NETFLIX on boxing behalf and ask it they can do promote an event with you. You don't like the system, then change it. Why try and stop Floyd from getting his money?
Build your own boxing app or website. I have a great business idea that would charge for boxing events on a subscription basis
- it would circumvent the whole PPV structure that dominates the sport.
No? Change isn't your thing? You want boxing back like the good old days when fights were determined by the mob?
You milenials are something else. Boxing has been and always been prizefighting. Welcome to reality.
for those buying it, what is it about this obvious cash grab mismatch makes you want to pay to see it ? if it were free, i can understand. they will duck the question.
mayweather has enough dedicate following of hoodrat racists to guarantee decent figures. they would watch him fight his own shadow. worst thing is they will make out its a legitimate win, the propaganda machine will start to kick into gear now, just watch....
Kind of like you g string ball gaggers?

It is not apples to apples though because unless someone achieves status like Floyd then they can't cash in like that. It requires years of hard wok to get to that point and fighting a lot of really good fighters. So you can't put it like you are putting it because those guys haven't put in the work to get to that level both inside and outside the ring.
If another dude puts in a ton of work to get into that position in their career you have a point but someone has to get to that position first which most guys never even really attempt to do because they more than likely can't pull it off.
Plus if they can actually sell it it is a bit different than a fight being put at 100 and no one buying. The market will show the truth of the matter on star power, if a guy can't do that they better find and outlet an up the number of people that actually give a rats ass about them.
1) just saying may would be quick to piss and shlt on this if pac chose to fight some 0-0 non boxer. of this i have no doubt. and fight fans would be doing likewise. people were shltting on pac for picking horn.
2) true and the public is dumb enough to buy it. i really am smdh at this. 49-0 vs 0-0 and its a good fncking idea ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? for $100 ?!?!?!?!?!?!? too many zeros in that price.
3) nope. not ''buying'' that. dont pawn this garbage off as some legit, going for #50 fight. may taking on mr 0-0 haa green lit every shltty card possibly and BOXING FANS wont be able to cry and complain about it. its like pros taking on amateurs in the olamepics :lol1: !!!! THRILLING !!!!!!
4) isnt it ''what have you done for me lately ?'' ?!?!?!? may left vs berto. ok. not the worst. but to come back vs mr 0-0 ?!?!?!?!? its all about money and its disgusting. again, whoever supports this dreck can never complain about a shltty card or a ppv being not worth it EVER AGAIN.
5) yeah, yeah....''you dont have to watch.''
1) Who cares what Floyd has to say anyway, he is a known hypocrit and full of ****. never got why anyone values his word very much other than maybe in relation to his boxing eye but even then he never really talks honestly or really answers a question straight.
2) It has to do with star power and personality, nothing more. I am not going to talk it up but I am not going to talk it down either because there will be plenty of suckers who will lay money on Connor without me having to give them fair odds. That is really using your boxing knowledge correctly btw.
3) I don't view it as legit or anything meaningful from a boxing standpoint where did I make anything like that point? No one can really holds Floyd jock though in terms of what he did in his career in the current landscape of boxing. That means others should put in work to get to that level not complain that they can't get there when they only did a small amount in comparison.
4) Yea boxing is like that but just because Floyd comes back to fight Connor doesn't make me think anything about Floyd in the current landscape. He will most likely be gone after this fight so it is not like it is some long term deal or plan, it is a one shot designed to print money. I wouldn't expect anyone to really care about this fight or anything in relation to what Floyd has done.
5) Yea, it will be a fun ride for me. You don't have to enjoy or do anything though that is your call
PTI.....
1) he should know better. he would crucify pac if he came back to fight an mma guy. may would hold a press conference on it.
2) he shouldnt sell it as a legit fight. for me, thats an insult. 0-0 guy is a $200 mil ticket ?!?!?!? this is what it must feel like to be high on crack.
3) this makes every shltty fight thats ever put together worthy of $100. should ruiz unretire to take on toney again, theres no reason why those buying may vs conor not buy ruiz vs toney 2 for $100.
4) its not a matter of passing on big bucks. its a slap in the face that its a 200 mil ''fight'' to begin with. holy shlt, people were complaining about who 3g fights !
5) no. just because an athlete finishes on top doesnt give that athlete carte blanche to do as he/she pleases. if that athlete cares about their legacy (obviously may doesnt), they would want to be associated with being matched against the best POSSIBLE opponent or call it what it really is...a con job.
''you dont have to buy it.''
''it will be a party night anyway.''
and nothing gets a party popping like a boxer vs an mma guy :lol1:
1) No I don't care that Manny is fighitng Horn he has nothing to really prove in the sport.
Does Floyd have anything to prove in boxing anymore, or he in the middle of some great run? No on both counts so who cares, it can be fun to watch MMA fans or idiots run their mouth then have their dreams smashed right before them.
2) A fight is a fight, it is their job to sell it.
3) No it doesn't because these guys achieved cross over status, no one in boxing is on that level really except maybe Manny to a lesser degree with Canelo perhaps closing in on that kind of status. So not everyone can do that nor is even capable, if someone wants to put in a decade plus of work and make their name that big they are fully within bounds to cash in.
4) Golovkin or any other guy really has not achieved anything close to that level in boxing, so yea he should be fighting harder to get to that level and at his advanced age he needed to be moving with a bit more alacrity. Floyd fought tons of high end guys Golovkin has fought a couple maybe a few if you want to be extra generous if someone wants to really make it in boxing they need to put in the work and most guys have not even come close. Which is all their own faults.
5) Their career and life they can do what they want, if someone wants to come back for money fair enough if someone wants to chase greatness that is cool too. Enjoy the ride, or don't, watch or don't watch either way is cool. Don't complain about it incessantly though because that shows you care about something you are claiming no one else should care about. If something or someone creates strong feelings then it is what it is both Floyd and Connor do that which makes people care.
I will just have fun and bet retards who think Connor has a prayer, I could spend 100 but make back 20 times that throwing a party so who is the one losing in that scenario, not me~ unless Connor wins .
money is only reason and that's the only reason needed.
Way of the world and sometimes it ok to just join in on festivities, i will have a get together with friends and good food and can we all get drunk watching the circus.
people that go to the movies didnt really believe in the terminator they just wanted to be entertained for a few hours.
speak for yourself bud
Mayweather finished his shine in boxing on top. What he does from this point on is bonus for him. Who would pass on a $200 million payday for an hour or less?
Save your hatred for other things.
Someone's O has got to go!!!!!!!
Floyd's gonna get knocked out!!!!!

Who tf pays for a Floyd fight by themselves? Really? I've never paid for a Mayweather fight by myself. Usually only costs me $15 plus a great time with friends and drinks. If you can't go to a fight party then why would you buy this fight by yourself (unless you got it like)? Just wait for the highlights the next day.
He has ZERO (0) losses.
That's what you guys have been calling for. For Floyd to fight an undefeated fighter. This is it.
Yeah man someones O has to go!!
im a big may fan and i usually dont complain but this takes the cake.
may is going to do whatever makes him money but we as fans dont have to support it. other than money (and i still dpnt get how this is a money maker), theres absolutely no reason for this fight to take place.
Money is only reason and that's the only reason needed.

Translation of this Post: Please guys, pretty please don't let Floyd make any more money! It hurts my vagina every time he fights because I want to see him lose but he always wins! And Floyd please don't come back and make more money! I'm an insecure loser and watching you succeed just reminds me how little I've accomplished in my actual time of existence.
^^
Translation if his thoughts
I'm so happy for you Floyd! You get that money baby! TBE!! :luvbed:

I'll even dedicate my new avatar to your opponent to make him look credible, since a lot of people are criticising you for facing a 0-0 novice!

a $100 to watch an exhibition fight with ''some'' of the proceeds going to charity, i could understand.
but this is a straight up ''legit'' fight.
Probably because Connor is going to try and take his head off, that makes it a real fight that casuals will relate to and pay plenty to see, that's why its happening.
I would be more shocked if it didn't happen, money talks every language,
so, everyone buying this is also buying pac vs horn too, right ?
:hail: oh wait, thats for free
That's because nobody will buy Pac vs Horn, yet they will buy Floyd and break another PPV record, something doesn't add up here.
It must hurt your soul that Floyd fighting an exhibition can shut down every boxing and MMA forum. Is anyone actually retarded enough to believe Manny has a greater legacy than Floyd at this point?
And... What did Manny have to do with the thread??
For TS I'll watch it in a bar. Ur lying if u try to say u wont be watching
