    Why Does Anyone Pay For Floyd's Exhibitions

    any other Floyd fans don't understand why people are still paying for his exhibitions.

    The McGregor match was warranted and a major victory for boxing. mma fans had to be shut up

    But the following exhibitions. Why? why does anyone want to see this diminished version of Floyd beat up some no-hoper

    Nobody wants to see froid which is why he's fighting in the middle east. The ass beating from Paul literally sent him out the u.s

      Who cares who watches him fight. I was/am a huge Mayweather fan but even I can’t watch that sht. I watched one round and I was like I’m out. But hell the man has a right to earn a living. Nobody’s forcing you to watch.

        well all the other ones he had an existing fanbase to tap into:

        mcgreggor (was a sanctioned boxing fight but saw you included it with exhibitions) - huge MMA fanbase

        Tension - huge japanese kickboxing fanbase

        Logan Paul - huge youtube fanbase


        his last one was really weird, i forgot it even happened, didnt even see much build up to it, I guess it was mostly for the gate revenue, cant imagine it selling much on PPV.

          Im actually surprised he hasnt milked the pro wrestling fan base, those people are pretty low IQ, he could fight some has been wrestler, a smaller one like shawn michaels or someone. Those ******s actually pay to watch wrestlign PPV's so they would probably fork over money to mayweather

            It's just a money laundering scheme. That's why they are holding these events in the Arab states. No tax man to worry about if you are fighting for the King. Boxing has become the cover for the Silk Road of the Middle East....and Mayweather and Joshua are the only 2 guys who are big enough earners to be able to filter the cash through. Fury tried to get onto the bandwagon once he started earning the same sort of money...but instead of aligning with the King...he chose to do it with a guy who was under the watchful eye of Interpol....which made him have to run away with his tail between his legs.

                I don’t. The last time I watched Floyd fight was against Berto in 2015.

                  That makes sense. I mean there is zero reason to believe they generated enough gate and PPV to even be able to pay out floyd's guarantee. About as believable that anyone payed 10k for ringside seats to that snoozefest as people dropping 500k a pop for hunter *****'s "artwork". Its just a front to move money.

                    The ones being fought overseas are for casual fans with a lot of money who couldn’t or wouldn’t come to the U.S. to see him fight. For some reason these wealthy Arabs want to lay generously to see him fight, perhaps out of curiosity or just boredom with their money. For them it’s like buying another Ferrari or oil painting, something not everyone can have.
