How are they "taking money" from real prize fighters? This is a side show, not to be confused with with real, professional boxing. The problem is people are taking this as a real fight, which is not at all. I've mentioned in a previous post, if you don't have an issue with the harlem globetrotters and don't think they're "freakshows taking money away from the NBA" you shouldn't have an issue with this. It is literally the same thing.

I don't understand how an exhibition is hurting the sport? Floyd is a retired 44-yr. old man! There's no "cutting in line!" This is not like a YouTuber is fighting Canelo or Terence Crawford. It's Floyd, or Mike Tyson, or Ochocinco! It has nothing to do with the sport!

This is a fault of the fighters, their lack of showmanship and panache, the avoidance of big fights due to promotions and networks, and shoddy (if at all) promotion on the part of the promoters and networks. Don’t blame the folks who have recognisable names for the public

He's right but he's not the one to talk.
If you count that exhibition he had vs that Japanese kid and now this fight vs Logan, Mayweather will have been more active in the past 24 months than Russel Jr.
And he's retired.

The reason Floyd can do the fight game like this is because of fighters like Gary Russell Jr. Once a yr fighter running his mouth everyday though acting like he’s doing something. I’ve heard him talk about Tank, Shakur, even fighting Crawford. Talk never impressed me, I got into boxing for the fights. Keep talking bro, but understand why no ones listening.
