Oscar's gonna drink himself into depression again.

[LockardTheGOAT]

Probably the only time Oscar will be rooting for Floyd to win.

[Outworn]

Its a circus show fight between a monkey and a drunk clown.

He acts like moved Mayweather off because of he retreated... He blackballed him and brags about it.

As much as Dela Hoya is right he's still a hypocrite for tryouts by too well Canelo to McGregor.

As Dana White said on TV yesterday, if the deal was Canelo vs Coner, Oscar would be singing a different tune, so he should just shut up about it.

Doesn't make Oscar wrong though. Sure he's a promoter and if he could make money off it he would grin his teeth through the disgust and stay quiet. Just like white used to shyt on fights like this as a joke and a disrespect to both sports. But once McGregor threatened to take them to court and make the fight without the UFC he changed his tune.

If Floyd wins which is most likely, it will be embarrassing to Boxing that he fought a guy with no pro fights. It will also be embarrassing to UFC that McGregor allowed for a situation where he had no chance to win and put the sport and himself in a position to take a big hit. Some will say at least he tried....no, he only saw dollar signs and played his role in a circus act. If by some chance McGregor wins, it will be a huge black eye for boxing - and the UFC will gloat with arrogance that they are better in every respect, which wont be true but that wont stop the gloating and the headlines and the shock around the boxing/UFC world. Nothing but a money grab at the cost of complete embarrassment to one or both sports. This is a no win scenario for one or both sports.

right message wrong messager.

Oscar would throw canelo in there with connor in a heartbeat.

He is still mad that Floyd gave his cash cow his only loss and Floyd kicked him to the curb right before he cashed out in the manny fight so he didn't get a dime of the crazy payday and Floyd is about to get another one and it is eating Oscar alive.

But still this fight is a expensive cherry pick sanctioned by the public.

Oscar's plan all along was to put Canelo-GGG off as long as possible. And now, because he has once again been outsmarted by Floyd, he's risking his cashcow, and will be doing something without maximum return on the risk. Because inevitably, Mayweather-McGregor is gonna hurt the Canelo-GGG bottomline. Its gonna hurt the buildup, because Floyd's fight will get the most mainstream attention. And in the economic times we're living in, a lot of people are gonna be choosing Floyd's fight OR Oscar's. And even the ones planning to get both. A lot of minds may change in the three weeks between the fights. Asking someone to drop $70 after they've already dropped $100 weeks earlier is gonna be tough. Especially since people are gonna be pissed at the ****y product they're gonna see in Aug.
