    The majority of the people paying to see Teo/Kambosos will not pay to see Floyd/Paul.

    I don't pay for any of those celebrity matches, it serves no purpose but casuals and non boxing fans do.

      I'm 6'2 and my walk around weight cracked 220 a week ago, with basically zero training and basic nutritional.

      But if I were seriously training, even now in my mid 40's, I can get down to 160. 175, I'd probably be beast mode. I know this to be true, because back in 2015 I got down to 175 and just in 2018 I was 185, and even now I'm stronger than I was, though slower.

      The 190 is a gift from Floyd. He could have asked him to drain down to 154 - which THEN you'd have an argument.

It'd actually be kind of funny to see Triller get put in their place by a spectacle like Floyd vs Paul thr first time they dipped their toes in actual boxing.
        Yeah f*** triller. I couldn’t give a sh** about them. Just disappointed for Teofimo. I think it’s a shame the circus fights are overshadowing the real fights these days.

          You have to understand. Certain people simply can't understand the BUSINESS of boxing, no matter who tries to explain it.

            The co-main event to his PPV is an exhibition

              Joking? I can’t tell for sure. I hope so.

                It sounds like you don't understand cut.

                If he WALKS AROUND at 220, 190 is dirt simple to cut to just by changing diet.

                We're not talking about George Foreman here.

                  You don't get priority over another because you were 1st and commissions should never try that moronic sheeit you are saying. 1 promoter could book every day of the year in that situation. "I wuz 1st doe." Also, imagine being stuck with 1 fight that's terrible instead of a choice between a good one and said terrible one. Should UFC not be allowed to have an event when boxing is on also? Where does the lunacy of your proposal end?

                    I understand just fine. Here he is at a dehydrated 199 1/4 he is in about as good a shape as he can be in. He's about 8% body fat probably tops and he'll put on 5-10 pounds of water weight for the fight. Assuming he'll not be dangerously dehydrated for the fight with Floyd, where is that extra 15-20 pounds going to come from?

                    If you're 220 and can cut to 160, you are a fat pig, no offense but you need to fix that. It's not going to get easier when you get to 50, trust me.

                      Some relatively unknown lightweight champion, that is no star, fighting a mandatory bum, should not be on PPV. Stop crying that Floyd is ruining that PPV. It shouldn't be PPV to begin with. Both events are trash for PPV.
