It's an unfortunate trend on many internet forums, too bad, it would have been refreshing to come to a forum that was above that.

Imagine, if by a long shot Floyd fights McGregor for his 50th fight, and gets KTFO by a non boxer. Floyd will be so humiliated and embarrassed for the whole world to see, but not only that, he would have single handedly destroyed boxing. I know it's far fetched that he would lose, but think about it, what if the chances of a lightning strike happened that day and KTFO of him, thus, being the self proclaimed TBE destroyed by a non boxer, that would only be the ultimate nail in the coffin that will destroy boxing to mediocrity. Boxing will not survive if that ever happens. McGregor has nothing to lose, he is expected to lose against a top boxer, but in Floyd's case as he is expected to win and he loses, that like a white belt toppling a 7 dan black belt of a sport. That will shame boxing in a whole new level. As Floyd's rips gullible fans off anew, and runs of to the sunset destroying the sport that we love in his biggest and final swan song farewell and a big finger in the end saying to all of you how much he earned by conning you guys up for being suckers.
My point is, as a true boxing fan, fans should be demanding a legit fight for his 50 if you guys are after a true legacy for him, but instead he chose another path of less resistance again, and the crazy thing about it, most of you floyd fans are okay about it coz FLoyd can do no wrong. Even if a true ATG is about testing himself, more so for a 50th fight that has a ring to it. It's a long shot that He loses against McGregor, but think about it, if by luck McGregor catches him and KTFO of him in the early rounds, Boxing will never recover from that. If Floyd is not fighting a legitimate threat for 50, he should just retire and stop ruining boxing. Food for thought.

Originally posted by Spoon23 View PostIt's quite natural to see Floyd will only fight again, if it's a big payday PPV fight.
Well It's down to 3 fighters who can give him that money fight.
We all know there are only 3 fighters who can give him that. Mc Gregor, Pacquiao or GGG.
The rest won't be so big since they are not yet that mainstream to command top dollars, and we also know Floyd without a salable dance partner will always Flop on PPV, you only need to look at his last fight with Berto to know that.
Knowing that it's down to 3.
Let's break it down.
Mc Gregor is the easiest choice here. Easy money fight against a non boxer, but does a true Boxing fan want this? I highly doubt it.
GGG, if he can go down to 154 is the ideal fight to finish his career, win, lose or draw, but does Floyd have the cohonez to fight a real threat late in his career? I highly doubt it.
Then there is Pacquiao, he's first fight with him was the lamest super fight ever recorded in history. Floyd cured insomnia that day. 5 million people watched a marathon hugging event than a real boxing match to remember, but it was memorable alright, but not in a good sense of the word though, memorable in a bad way, the kind he shouldn't be proud off himself based on how ***** he performed that night. What I'm saying, if there is one man, who needed to redeem himself for all that debbie downer performance he pulled. It's Floyd. There is still unfinished business written all over this fight and he owes the boxing public especially the casual fans a real fight to remember with Pacquiao. A rematch that will leave a mark like how the past greats of the game left epic matches to remember. Floyd has none to this day. A fight that before he retires for good will leave a legacy of a true epic showdown. The thing is this is off course, not in Floyd's agenda, he got away with a fluke win with a one armed healthy Pac, he knows a 2 armed healthy Pac will be too much for him, especially a rematch with Pacquiao will have to be IV free fight. He will be in a microscope, especially since he got away with the IV gate scandal. So that said, obviously this fight will not fly with Floyd.
Now, knowing all these, I therefore conclude, Since he won't fight GGG for the money, he won't fight Pacquiao to close the show for all the PPV money in the world, we are down to Mc Gregor, A fight with a MMA fighter who has no business in the ring. The lamest cherry picking fight to close floyd's legendary cherry picking career.
The thing is, McGregor, only has a punchers chance in beating FLoyd, but we have to put this in the equation, Mc Gregor will be putting boxing gloves on, that will defintely dampen his KO punch strength compared to his lighter mma gloves that he knocks mma fighters with. Not only that Floyd will force him to wear pillow gloves to add insult to injury. Now with that in mind, Mc Gregor's punchers chance all of a sudden evaporates lol
Conclusion:
Just stay retired Floyd. Your boring circus show is over.
McGregor boxing lololol
amatuer boxing night right here folks!
Those who voted for McGregor pls be proud of your pick and comment why you chose him
I think McGregor is the money fight but Thurman would be a cute fight.
GGG is a little slow and methodical for Mayweather, He would get potshotted and kept at bay for the whole fight. Love him tho
