Comments Thread For: Jake Paul: Mayweather Fighting Logan? He Needs Us To Sell Millions of PPVs

[GhostofDempsey]

"Logan Paul turned pro in 2019, when a controversial split decision loss to Youtube rival KSI.

So why would Mayweather, who retired in August of 2017, return to the ring to face such an inexperienced fighter?

"He has to," Jake Paul said to Brian Campbell of CBS Sports. "That's why he is fighting my brother. Who else is Floyd going to fight that will sell millions of pay-per-views? He needs us more than we need him."

They are right. Who else can Floyd get an easy, low-risk high-reward "exhibition" against? This is right up his alley, a reflection of his entire career. If he wants those 8 or 9-digit paydays without risking his "0", this is his only option...YouTubers and woefully outmatched opponents.

When you dominate your main rival 10-2 and have shutout the current best boxer in the sport 12-0, it’s not a surprise that casual fans and tweens pay to see you fight exhibitions against YouTube stars.

That really isn't it. People pay to see Floyd lose because of the Money May persona he sculpted.

The fights themselves are pretty dull, but at least he got his ko percentage up against the mma fighter and the japanese kickboxer.

Lol aint that the truth

He's not wrong.

Mayweather isn't Conor. He's not big enough by himself to sell over 1M buys.

you have no idea why fans watch Floyd fights. Most people watch him because they like watching greatness. That really bothers you.

You love to bring up the Tenshin fight. You’re clearly mad that a well respected and successful Asian businessman, Mr Honda, chose Floyd for the exhibition in Japan rather than Manny. .

That is why Honda is a successful billionaire and you’re still a boy toy that Midwestern businessman use as a cum receptacle.

This is dumb even for you. By this logic, the guys who take “risks” will earn more.

of course guys like you switch what is “risk” depending on who is fighting. If manny fights a guy it’s “ risk” when Floyd fights him, you say it isn’t.

The only way this logic makes sense is if you concede Floyd is just so much better than Manny that them fighting the same guys is risk for one and not for the other.

That or admit your bias and hate for Floyd primarily because he is black.

Why are you so race-obsessed? Every topic you try to make about race, it really wreaks of your inferiority complex and insecurity. Go F*** off with that nonsense.

Your guy is fighting a Youtuber, who has absolutely no shot at winning. Manny is fighting the best welter in the division now. Deal with it!

This is what is wrong with boxing, it's a popularity contest and who brings more money to the table, I get it that money talks, but this is just terrible for boxing.

Floyd is retired. Manny isn’t .

why do switch up what is “risk” depending on who is fighting?

if it isn’t race then why?

Oooooo. Somebody's pretty emotional.

Tell me what part of my statement isn't the truth.

I can take an educated guess. About 85% pay to see Floyd lose, and the other 15% pay to watch him because they like the way he fights.

Aka Floyd Boys like you.

These Paul Brothers seem to know what time it is.

Floyd can make good money fighting the top fighters in boxing but all he wanted was no risk fights, and when the threats emerged oops its either vacation or retirement.
