    Between this and Fury/Ngannou the sport of boxing has officially turned into a circus act.
    Its been that way for a while now. Like half of the top selling boxing PPVs since Floyd/Pac dont even involve actual boxers.

      Half? What’s your source for that?

      What we do know is that MMAers are getting paid way better in these fights than over on the UFC plantation.

        Always decide on the rules up front. Cuts down on the stabbings.

          Floyd/Conor

          Tyson/RJJ
          Canelo/GGG 1
          Tank/Garcia
          Canelo/GGG 2
          Canelo/JCC jr
          Floyd/Logan Paul

          Are the fights that have broken a million buys in America since Floyd/Pac.

            You said that half of them don’t even involve actual boxers. The only fight on your list that doesn’t involve an actual boxer is KSI/Logan Paul 2.

              Floyd was retired and competing in literal exhibition bouts, RJJ/Tyson was two retired boxers in their 50s in an exhibition, KSI/Paul are Youtubers, Conor is an MMA fighter. These are the names accounting for the majority of big boxing PPVs in the last 8 years. Not a good sign is it?

                Floyd was an actual boxer and Floyd vs Conor is on his official boxing record.

                RJJ and Mike Tyson were also actual boxers even if their PPV was an exhibition.
