Mayweather-McGregor is a freak show, but how many PBC fights in recent years have had hideous mismatches? I realize some of these may have happened outside of Nevada, but three that come to mind are Garcia-Salka, Quillin-Zerafa, and Santa Cruz-Roman. But they have a problem with Ward fighting a top-20 ranked guy that held the IBO title? There's something fishy about that. Maybe Bennett was trying to settle a score for the late Dan Goossen? IDK, I'm just hypothesizing.

To be fair and this is real talk. Mayweather made: Marquez, Canelo, Guerrero, Berto and even Pacquiao look average. And we all seen what he did to Gatti may he be blessed and his family. So him doing Conor wrong in the ring wouldn't be too much worse than he did to champions. The outcome will be similar.

People complaining about this fight. Let's recall the great Julio Cesar Chavez facing Roberto Lindo for his 50th fight. Chavez went in an established champion going for 50-0 against this guy. This guy Roberto Lindo was 1-15 going into the fight. How is it that Chavez, who was a champion gets a pass for reaching 50-0, fighting a guy with 1-15 record and finished his career with 2-20, getting KOd 15 times. Floyd is retired, ain't holding no title or holding up any fights. This is just for entertainment and a cash grab. He isn't forcing you to pay for it just like you werent forced to pay for the war that was Canelo vs Chavez Jr.

Originally posted by ox805er View Postagree on the scamming, that's why i'm not a fan of canelita.. And i don't know about begging mcgregor, i think they see the quick money grab as well. My issue is why pay $ to see someone get schooled badly? When you can spend it on spence vs crawford type of fights..

I think its a name thing & Ward doesn't have one outside of Oakland & his promoter sucks at promotion. So the NSAC is probably like "whats in this for me" I think lol.

An accomplished champion was facing someone making their debut for his 41 fight or chavez facing a guy with a 1-15 record for his 50th fight.
