    Remember when Mayweather dissed Ali for fighting a guy with 7 fights

    Floyd got mad at Stephen A smith and told him Ali was glorified yet he fought a guy with 7 fights, and lost to him,and said they would never put me in with a guy with 7 fights.

    now he is fighting an MMA fighter with no professional fights

    The whole argument was based on the fact he lost to him.

        Yep.

        I also recall him criticizing Oscar and Ring Magazine for putting Ronda Rousey on the cover sometime around late 2015/early 2016 last year, saying that it sort of casts a negative light on boxing when an MMA fighter graces the cover instead of one of their own.

        Yet here he is actually fighting one in his 50th.

          Floyd/Connor is a money grab.

          If you're not happy about it, hurt them by not buying it. I know I'm not.

                    Ali didn't give a damn about Mayweather's opinion any more than Mayweather cares about your opinion. Ali got paid a lot of money to fight an exhibition. I would have done the same thing for that kind of money.

                    Mayweather is making $100 million to fight an MMA fighter. I would do the same thing for that kind of money.
