    People criticizing Floyd fighting McGregor yet have NO problem with Pacquiao/Horn

    The same people who say Floyd is tarnishing the sport by facing McGregor seem to have no issue with Pac facing Horn, they CELEBRATE the MULTITUDE of BUMS that G-String has faced throughout his career... Yet when a fight that is the very definition of EASY MONEY comes up, the same people come out in droves to cry about Floyd.

    This whole saga has proven that Floyd is a BUSINESS GENIUS. People claimed he's not a great businessman, but look how much he's about to generate for toying that clown? He may even eclipse what he generated against Pac.

    It seems like y'all only have an issue when fighters on the "coincidental list" make easy bread.

    From a pure boxing relevance standpoint, obviously, Pacquiao/Horn is a f**king joke. It's sad. That said, they're going to sell out a 55K capacity venue for it and while it won't be the purses that Pacquiao used to get in his prime, or (probably) not even close to it, it'll still be a bigger purse than anybody can get in the sport of boxing outside of Canelo or Floyd. So do I blame Team Pacquiao for taking it? No.

    Nor do I blame Floyd. Floyd's going to get a motherf**king truckload of cash for fighting McGregor. The sport is a business. All of professional sports is a business. We see guys all the time who sign contracts with ****ty no hope franchises because why? Because of the money. Period. This Floyd/Conor circus side show is a reality because of why? The money.

    All trails lead back to the almighty dollar, people.

    It's going to do ****** money so of course I don't blame Floyd for doing this.

      You probably are a moron because everyone even the Pac fans criticized the fight. Pac/Horn might be a joke, but Floyd/Mcgregor is even a bigger joke!

        At least horn can box, however badly. Mcgregor has never boxed a single fight. Its pathetic mayweather will go 50-0 against a patsy like mac. The whole world is laughing at his lack of balls.

          It's a circus side show is what it is. But the gullible ass casuals will eat this **** up -- a lot of dumb ass motherf**kers actually think McGregor has a legit chance. **** you could probably take the 100th rated fighter in any division at or near what McGregor would fight within inside a boxing ring and he'd get taken to the cleaners.

          Floyd will be laughing all the way to the bank, though. And for that matter so will McGregor. This will be his biggest payday of his career.

            Mcgregor doesn't even have a boxing license for F$&ks sake. This match Is without a doubt worse than Pacquiao/Horn which Is also a terribly disgraceful fight.

              Does anyone believe that any current fighter wouldn't box an MMA fighter for $100 mil+?

              I think every one of them would.

              But lets shit on Mayweather for taking a fight anyone would. Why? Because he's not likeable.

                EXACTLY.

                This is the equivalent of someone offering you 100 million to walk down a flight of stairs.

                Only a FOOL would reject such an offer.

                    I have no idea who horn is but I bet Horn would beat Mcgregor in a boxing match. Mcgregor vs Mayweather is a bigger joke than any of the other examples you have mentioned OP.
