Comments Thread For: Mayweather-McGregor Talk Erupts After MGM Reserved For 8/26

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

so i guess since the irish man has amateur experience it makes it ok to jump at the front of the line and make boat loads of $ to get schooled bad?

got it!

Next time you quote make sure you know wtf you're talking about. The idiot I quoted claimed McGregor has no amateur experience which is obviously false. The guy is talking out of his ass. And THAT was the main point in my post.

anybody got a steam link?

If Oscar thinks he's going to be able to get $5000 per ringside seat for Canelo-GGG he's out of his mind.

Canelo-GGG is a great fight, but it's not THAT big. You have one guy that draws pretty well in Canelo, but GGG hasn't proven to be nearly as big of a draw. If they price this thing at $5000 at the top end and $1000 at the low end they will struggle to fill the place.

This is not Floyd-Pac. To make my point even further it's not Floyd-McGregor. Floyd-McGregor has two guys that pull in 1 million + PPV buys on a regular basis which means they could expect more than 2 million PPV buys for this for sure, don't forget they are going to be drawing from the biggest stars from two different sports.

Canelo-GGG has one draw in Canelo, with GGG not so much.

You must not have EVER gone to a live boxing match if you don't think the Canelo VS Triple g front row seats would go for 5 grand or more.
I have and believe me, front row seats to the Canelo VS Triple g will easily sell for more than 5 grand.
I've never paid that much for a seat but I know they go for that much cause I've been too plenty of live Boxing fights and I'm always looking for the best available seats as soon as the tickets go on sale so I know what they sell for.
So quit hating on Canelo and enjoy a great fight in September.

Anyone who respects combat sports, both boxing and MMA know this fight is a farce. Further, Floyd and Conor are attempting to fool the fans by jumping in front of Canelo/GGG fight to steal their limelight and our PPV money. This will be a one sided mockery of the sport whereas Canelo/GGG is guaranteed action.

No way in hell do they do it then. Cotto will do at leat 400k on free HBO. And you know HBO may just f with Mayweather and do a free preview weekend just for the hell of it.

Mayweather is to smart to do it that date.

Seriously..Cotto is a non issue man

What a waste of money for those who pay for this joke. LOL really though? Conor who has 0 professional fights vs the best fighter in our era?? lol people actually believe Conor has a shot? lol a bunch of fool's who dont understand the difference between MMA and Boxing. If this was a MMA fight floyd would get killed! This is a boxing match! conor has no chance!!

What line? Mayweather isn't an active boxer, there's no titles or rankings involved.

[Larry the boss]

Hard core Cotto fans plus casual Cotto fans will. Not to mention the large PR following he has will tune in to him and not pay for a 100 fight dummy. No one in there right mind would lose 400k eye balls.

seriously man..Cotto is not a big deal anymore especially fighting who he is fighting

[SkillspayBills]

I can't believe they would actually have a turn around this damn quick. August is right around the damn corner.

Pretty ironic how you started off your post considering you just showed you're the one who doesn't know anything about anything. Lmao this thread is gold. Buncha people acting as if they know what they're talking about.

Spot on.. I lol'd at the part it says, Diaz gave him a boxing lesson!! haha, Diaz got skills as a boxer, but he got lit up on the feet with a guy who was 25-30lb lighter than him. Mcgregor was teeing off at will, got caught with a few glancing shots when gassing. Although he does have stamina issues, i think thats more to do with he style, the amount of shots he throws.. but i could be wrong.
Diaz holds his own, apparently sparring with Ward (Ward says this himself) And Mcgregor slapped the **** out of him.
I doubt it will be a fight to remember, and not as exciting as Mcgregors MMA fights, but as an event and the build up, you know you're all gonna tune in )
