      WAR ANYONE AGAINST FLOYD!!
      if brock was doing better numbers than wlad and joshua yes.

        yeah probably but he was lineal champ in 2 divisions. thats much harder than boxing since there are half the divisions and twice the competition in each division. its not like hes paulie malignaggi or broner just beating fringe contenders and pretending to be champ

          he did over a million with Ortiz for crying out loud..your act is old..he did over 900k against Maidana did 1 million with Guererro

            What #s has Conor done better than Floyd on? Manny, Oscar, Canelo, JMM, Cotto maybe? Or Shane Mosely?

            Since you seem to believe that Floyd needed a dance partner, could you give me #s on the ppvs that Cotto, JMM, Mosley, Canelo and others have done w/out Floyd?

            Since you know.. I'm sure they're in the millions on top of million ppv buys


            As far as the OP goes, I still stick to my stance that this match up is pure crap.

              Yeah it's a ridiculous fight honestly. Mayweather wins 12-0 easily if it's in a boxing match which is what they have been talking about. I can see why casuals, UFC fans who don't watch boxing, or people who just know the names Mayweather and McGregor would want to see it, given that they are the two biggest names in both sports. But I doubt many big fans of boxing or UFC care to see this that much because they know the outcome. The buildup would be much better than the fight. But if it happens I know some friends that will buy it so I will go watch it with them. I highly doubt it happens though.

                most those guys floyd fought already had ppv buys of 1 million buys or more. conor fought aldo who had 200k buys, diaz with 0 ppvs, and alvarez with 0 ppvs. conor did about 1.5 million buys on average. look at the guys floyd fought with no ppv experience. his average was around 500k. floyd needs a ppv star to get big numbers. conor doesn't. you can't really dispute that. i'm sorry floyd wasn't as popular as you wanted but its not my fault.

                  and conor did more against guys that weren't ppv stars so whats your point? yes we know floyd fought guys that were ppv stars. no one disputes that. that doesn't make him more popular than conor on his own thoguh. numbers show that.

                    It would make huge money, which is Floyd's chosen nickname and brand. It's also the reason so many people here are in favor of the upcoming fight between Canelo and Chavez. Money. Not the boxing so much (Chavez is washed up, undisciplined and ultimately will be drained to death anyway), but the money.

                    The money would be stratospheric for a Floyd/McGregor boxing match. Who wouldn't want to see:

                    a) Floyd continually outslick the ****y Irishman, or
                    b) the Irishman land a few lucky punches

                    I don't rate this below Canelo/Chavez, a big money event that lacks true boxing value.

                      I'd love to watch Floyd beat Connor. If it was OK for Ali to fight inoki I've goigoit no problem with Floyd v Connor.
                      Floyd's retired now so a change of career is fine.
                      no it wasn't ok for ali vs inoki to fight.that fight was an embarrassment for ali and he almost got his leg amputated and the fans hated it throwing trash in the ring.fighting conor is a joke when there are credible opponents to fight.if anything it should should be an exhibition match.
