Do we need a YouTuber to get seriously injured to get rid of these f***ers?

It clearly does undermine them. Loma-Lopez is exactly what you’re asking for the two best available Lightweights in the World fighting for the undisputed title. Yet that event pales in comparison to Mayweather vs Youtuber or Tyson and Jones having an exhibition in their 50’s. Modern fighters are being outshone by grandads and YouTubers how doesn’t it undermine them? That’s a them problem, not Tyson or Floyd.

No chance, he’ll carry the kid. Look what he did for McGregor... eh who knows maybe he will toy with him kind off like how a cat does with its prey before it devours it...

Maybe Floyd wants to make an example off the guy he's fighting and also make a nice big pay check out off it in the process you know business wise so then he can say this is what happens when an amateur tries taking on a seasoned Pro? No chance, he’ll carry the kid. Look what he did for McGregor...

“Undermines today’s stars”...wow. Today’s fighters not having the sack to take a stand for themselves and fight the best available competition undermines today’s stars. Having 4-6 “champions” in a division undermines today’s “stars”, not a retired fighter doing an exhibition. It clearly does undermine them.

Floyd Mayweather fighting a f***ing Youtuber. :lol1: What’s happening with this sport man? It’s becoming embarrassing being a boxing fan. It’s just such a circus now. The saddest thing is more people will probably buy this than the amount of people who would buy Spence-Crawford. What does that say about our sport guys? How come people wanna watch an unskilled, untrained, untalented YouTuber but aren’t interested in watching a highly skilled elite fighter. Boxing is honestly becoming a joke, and it’s only getting worse year upon year.

I think the size of the events is the biggest differences. These sort of events undermines boxing’s current stars. Roy didn’t earn multi-millions for pros vs Joes. These YouTuber’s are taking money away from the sport, the money they make won’t be reinvested back into the sport either it’s just cash grabs. “Undermines today’s stars”...wow.

The commission would probably look at one guy being 6'1", 190 lbs and the other guy being 5'5", 135 lbs as the reason why they shouldn't sanction it. So it's WBC judges for the David vs Goliath diamond ruby super belt.

Well if Logan Paul is interested in pursuing a boxing career then his presence will continue to bring eyes to the sport. I get what you're saying though and honestly the market will dictate the size of the event. If anything I blame the promoters for YouTubers being bigger draws in boxing than elite boxers. He doesn’t want to pursue a boxing career though he just wants to monetise his following and boxing is a vehicle to do so. The promoters are definitely at fault too, especially guys like Hearn who are actually promoting these YouTube guys knowing the damage it does to the credibility of the sport.

Hope these idiots get brain damage. They belong on a keyboard not in a ring.

People are so heartbroken about this, but how is it different than Garcia v Salka? Fundora v Habib? Except that it brings way more views. I’d rather have a one sided fight for a fighter who can get paid and bring many viewers to the sport than a one sided fight where people don’t get paid and doesn’t advance viewership. Like it or not, boxers want money nowadays and this is a path to the money. It makes high level “undercards” on these cards easier to make.

I loved that chick who lost her head taking a selfie She and her girl were in the states?? Her selfie head hit a pole Good stuff

For me, this is no different from the show "Pro's vs. Joes" from years ago where retired pro athletes would compete against regular people in various sports. Roy Jones Jr. actually appeared on an episode so none of this is new. It's just a matter of supply and demand. If there is a demand for these types of events then people like Floyd and Logan Paul will supply them. If the demand goes away then so will these types of events.

If a large percentage of his YouTube subscriber's realise they like boxing and start watching other cards then its good for the sport.

Nah, he’ll carry him. A professionally trained flyweight could easily knock out a 6ft untrained YouTuber if he wanted to. Without question.

Most people would pay good money to watch a YouTuber get killed. It's called supply and demand. Floyd’s getting old man. Inactive and although he’ll have no problem “winning” a fight where no winner is announced, he’s not going to “kill him”.

People like you were saying that about that UFC bum Magregor. He carried him as well... Julio Cesar Martinez would f*** McGregor up for example. People like you just have some weird agenda with Floyd. I don’t like the guy but you have to respect his ability.

even a serious injury wont stop them, ppl are stupid enough dying to make some crazy selfies, life is nothing, hype and thirst for money is everything

Imagine the losers who idolize Floyd and lives through his achievements like so many of the guys do here and still have to come and defend his stupid bull**** antics because they take personal offense to people criticizing him. Can you imagine that? And these same dudes call themselves "boxing fans". Are these guys really fans of boxing or is it something else? OP. You got to realize the most the dudes supporting this kind of circus are the same guys who claim they're not casuals and have been here for YEARS. Can't wait to see who Jake Paul is gonna fight next because he pissed all the whole hood because one of their homies called out a white boy and got embarrassed. Who's next? Tarvar? Clarissa Shields? Lmfao.
