I'm a lifelong boxing fanatic but I can't front when I watch UFC fights the dude screaming "IT'S TIME!" gets me hyped AF. I wouldn't mind hearing it leading into this one considering it's not the usual fight by any means.
Paulie being one of the commentators is just added drama.
Which is what they want for a spectacle like this.
This circus needs as many fireworks as possible.
Showtime would be stupid to remove him from this fight.
It was odd how cringe worthy this whole thing managed to be. I honestly was wondering if I got old over night and just wasn't feeling it. But I'm glad to see that others felt the same. The aura of the whole event was one of "fakeness". The news coming out about Mayweather's finances has kind of ruined it. I don't think people see it as Mayweather standing up for boxing anymore to silence the MMA **** talker. It's now Mayweather making a desperation fight to keep the tax man away. Now mind you I'm not 100% sure I believe the allegations about his money problems. But I think it's casted a nasty shadow over the fight. I honestly think the sales for this although a record breaker, will be underwhelming. I wonder how it will perform against what they're forecasting it do # wise.
